## DB compatibility
Real networks with large number of blocks require a substantial amount of time
to synchronize. When operating a number of node instances with similar
configurations you may want to save some resources by performing synchronization
on one node and then copying the DB over to other instances. In general, this
can be done and this is supported, but NeoGo has a lot of options that may
affect this:
- any differences in `ProtocolConfiguration` section make databases
incompatible, except for `Max*` settings, `MemPoolSize`,
`P2PNotaryRequestPayloadPoolSize`, `SeedList`, `TimePerBlock`.
Protocol configuration is expected to be the same on all nodes of the same
network, so don't touch it unless you know what you're doing.
- DB types (Level/Bolt) must be the same
- `GarbageCollectionPeriod` must be the same
- `KeepOnlyLatestState` must be the same
- `RemoveUntraceableBlocks` must be the same
BotlDB is also known to be incompatible between machines with different
endianness. Nothing is known for LevelDB wrt this, so it's not recommended
to copy it this way too.
