2 SAFR - OnGuard Operation Guide

2.1 Synchronizing Cardholders

External Identity synchronization is automatic. Person records and their credentials are copied from OnGuard to SAFR Server and from there pushed to all readers. Synchronization occurs continuously in the background. Please note that an initial synch of 50K cardholders can take between 2-3hours. Incremental synchs thereafter of adds/deletes/edits will be updated in the order of 3-10 seconds.

SAFR will synchronize people and credentials as follows:

  • At initial connection time, all records pre-existing in OnGuard are copied to SAFR.
  • From then on, records added to OnGuard are copied to SAFR.
  • Records modified or added in SAFR are NOT copied to OnGuard.
  • Changes to records in OnGuard are updated in SAFR.
  • If record is changed in SAFR, a warning is displayed in SAFR that the change may be over written when the record is changed in OnGuard.
    • To dissociate the record from OnGuard completely the “Access Information Origin” need to be cleared.
  • Only records with access credentials copied to SAFR.
  • Removing credentials in OnGuard will result in the record being removed from SAFR.
  • Setting record to inactive in OnGuard removes the record from SAFR.
