Use save translation to commit the active server translations (volatile) in memory to a file (non-volatile). The translation will either complete or fail. For Linux platforms, a filesync process copies the translation file to the standby server.

All translation data is kept in volatile system memory or on the hard drive during normal operation. In the event of a power outage or certain system failures, data in memory is lost. Save translation stores on disk the translation data currently in memory.

When a SAT user issues save translation on a duplicated system, translations are saved on both the active and standby servers. If an update of the standby server is already in progress, subsequent save translation commands fail with the message save translations has a command conflict.

The save translation command does not run and the system displays an error message in the following cases:

Run save translation as part of scheduled background maintenance or on demand.
