What is better than a [Pi-hole](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole) blocking ads via DNS on your network? That's right, two Pi-hole blocking ads on your network!
But if you have more than one Pi-hole in your network you'll want a simple way to keep the list configurations and local DNS settings identical between the two. That's Gravity Sync. With proper preparation it should only take a few minutes to install.
But if you have more than one Pi-hole in your network you'll want a simple way to keep the list configurations and local DNS settings identical between the two. That's Gravity Sync. With proper preparation it should only take a few minutes to install. Ideally you set up Gravity Sync and forget about it -- and in the long term, it would be awesome if the Pi-hole team made this entire script unnecessary.
## Features
Gravity Sync will:
- Sync the Adlist database (allow/block list) configurations stored in `gravity.db` between multiple Pi-hole.
- Sync the Local DNS Settings stored in `custom.list` between multiple Pi-hole.
- Provide an easy way to keep this happening in the background.

Gravity Sync the `gravity.db` database which includes:
- Blocklist settings with status and comments.
- Domain whitelist and blacklist along with status with comments.
- Custom RegEx whitelist and blacklists.
- Clients and groups along with any list assignments.
- The Local DNS Settings feature in Pi-hole (These are stored in a separate `custom.list` file and this can optionally be disabled.)
### Limitations
Gravity Sync will **not**:
- Overwrite individual Pi-hole specific settings such as the device's network configuration, admin/API passwords/keys, upstream DNS resolvers, etc.
- Keep DHCP settings or device leases synchronized.
- Overwrite or sync device specific Pi-hole settings such as the local network configuration.
- Overwrite or sync the Pi-hole admin/API passwords, not does not leverage these at all.
- Overwrite or sync the upstream DNS resolvers, etc.
- Overwrite or sync DHCP settings or device leases synchronized.
- Overwrite or sync long term data, query logs, or statistics.
