Database delta sync
The Database Delta Sync feature helps the administrator connect to a source OpenKM and re-sync only the nodes created or modified within a given date range, on top of a bulk import already performed with Database import.
It is meant to be run repeatedly with a shrinking date range while the source instance stays in use, and once more, with the source frozen, as the final cutover pass.
