+When the Sync program is executed by the sending server with a call to the port, the data file will be passed to the Sync program via the stdin stream.
+Ensure the ttidef file is either in the same directory, or at the location stated in the script so the Sync program has access.
+Examples of ttidef files:
+    * [[cookbook:backupexec|Backup Exec]]
+    * [[cookbook:commvault|Commvault]]
+    * [[cookbook:dataprotector|Data Protector]]
+    * [[cookbook:netbackup|NetBackup]]
+    * [[cookbook:networker|NetWorker]]
+    * [[cookbook:tsm|Tivoli Storage Manager]]
+    * [[cookbook:veeam|VEEAM]]
+Output from the Sync process will be passed back to the sending server from the stderr stream to the stdin stream.
+This can be altered to write the output to file on either computer by using the > and 2> redirection streams to text file if required.
