Note: These settings are only relevant if you are profiling a 1.5 JVM or an IBM JVM, and you have specified the nowait option for the -agentpath... VM parameter. In that case, the config file needs to be synchronized on the remote computer when the profiling settings are changed.

• Manual synchronization
  Nothing is done, you have to copy the config file yourself if you want the new settings to become active for the next profiling run.
• Copy with SSH to remote directory
  This mode is only available, if the session connects to a remote machine via SSH. The config file is copied via SSH to the specified directory on the remote machine.
• Copy to directory
  The config file is copied to the specified directory. You can use the [...] chooser button to select the directory with a file chooser.
• Execute command
  

  The specified command is executed. For example you could invoke ssh to copy the config file to a remote computer.

  No terminal window is shown during the execution. If you have to show a terminal window on Windows, you can use

        cmd.exe /C "start /WAIT cmd.exe /C [your command here]"

To effect the synchronization of the config file directly from the dialog, a [Synchronize config file now] button is provided in the dialog. In addition, the synchronization is triggered whenever you change the profiling settings.
