 +===== Synchronization =====
 +
 +<note important>You will need to install the [[cli:sync_suite|TapeTrack Sync software]] to complete these instructions.</note>
 +
 +Synchronization with TapeTrack is performed by calling the [[cli:TMSS10Sync|TMSS10Sync]] command line program, along with:
 +
 +  - The Storage Information CSV report.
 +  - Command line arguments that instruct the program how to process volumes. 
 +  - A synchronization definition file that instructs the program how to interpret the Storage Information CSV output.
 +
 +
 +==== Example Command Line Arguments ====
 +
 +<code plain;>
 +TMSS10Sync -d default.ttidef -a -S batch:-password@server < commvaultreport.csv
 +</code>
 +
 +Where:
 +  * ''-d'' is the path to the Synchronization Definition File.
 +  * ''-a'' tells the program to add new tape volumes if they are encountered.
 +  * ''-S'' tells the program what [[cli:server_argument|Server]] to connect to.
 +  * ''commvaultreport.csv'' is the Commvault output.
 +
 +==== Example Synchronization Definition ====
 +

 +<code>

 +# Set delimiter
 +SetCSVDelimiter(",");

 +# Set Customer-ID
 +SetLiteral(CUSTOMER, "1002");
