Monitor mode will perform a sync upon file operations on initiator replica. This can be a drawback on functionality versus scheduled mode because this mode only launches a sync task if there are file modifications on the initiator replica, without being able to monitor the target replica. Target replica changes are only synced when initiator replica changes occur, or when a given amount of time (600 seconds by default) passed without any changes on initiator replica.
