Learn about the new features in each Data Synchronization app release.

Version 3.2.0

Added Console-only DR feature to enable Console-only failover and failback by using QRadar® Data Synchronization app. Console-only DR implementation is useful for customers in the following scenarios.
  • An actual disaster recovery where the console is not available but the other deployment hosts are still running.
  • A disaster recovery exercise where the main site is still available during the disaster recovery process.
Important: Console-only DR feature does not support High Availability (HA) and need to remove HA before Failover and Failback from Main and Destination sites in its current implementation.

The critical security vulnerabilities are resolved in the QRadar Data Synchronization app.
