* '''Synchronization Packets'''<br>Regular files that contain synchronization data placed to Synchronization media. If synchronization happens using regular tools, Packet files will be named as {{Code|<server's-guid>-<server's-seqno>.packet}}. These files are [[wikipedia:Tar_(file_format)|tarballs]].
