2 Backends, each with unique watch data #791
-
|
Hi, I have two Jellyfin servers, in two locations, each with the same 4 users. One server has watch status for 2 users, another for the other 2 users. If I import both backends, I get errors with conflicts since I have never force-overwritten one of the servers. Is there a way to synchronize these without losing the data for 2 of the users? Thanks. |

Unfortunately this is not directly supported by the system currently however you could do it manually as you only have few users and backends First stage dont use sub users atm. use the main user for user1 set the backends as you need force import from the good backend and than force export to the empty backend. once user is completed reset the system via more > system reset go back to backends edit them and select user2 profiles, and repeat the operation as you see fit. once that is done. again reset the system and use proper setup set main user for admin and create sub users etc. |

To make sure I understand this last step, by proper you simply mean choose one server to be the 'main' and overwrite the secondary for all users? I.E. I'll still have a "sub-user" in Watchstate for every user in Jellyfin? |

What i mean is once both servers are synced for all users, simply reset the system and let you admin account be the main, and than generate sub users and follow whatever guide you want 1-2-3way-sync :) proper just means doing the correct thing as main user should be your account i.e. the admin |

Oh.. maybe I'm confused by the document. I have a local admin user and my user via LDAP which is also an admin, then 3 other users. If I use my Jellyfin user (or the local admin) in Watchstate, does it actually sync all Jellyfin users? |

go back to backends edit them and select user2 profiles, and repeat the operation as you see fit.
once that is done. again reset the system and use proper setup set main user for admin and create sub users etc.
