5.1.2.1 - The repository shall have mechanisms in place to ensure any/multiple copies of digital objects are synchronized.

Explanation

SP does not have an online mirror site for its content, so it does not use online synchronization. Tape backup copies are synchronized with copies in archival storage by regular replication from a known good copy. The Backup Plan describes how Scholars Portal creates and manages backup copies.
