Yes, you are using the wrong tool. syncml-ds-tool (version 0.5.x) was
designed for testing and full sync. This means that you can use it to
backup or restore your mobile but it has no real state or index management.

syncml-ds-tool of the actually prepared 0.6.x series can do such stuff
but the trunk is actually in a beta phase. You can see the planned and
realized stuff at

https://libsyncml.opensync.org/wiki/docs/trunk/syncml-ds-tool

If you want to do real synchronization then please use OpenSync for
this. snycml-ds-tool of libsyncml stable can only be used for testing
and full backup/restore.

Best regards

Michael
