Description: Forces replication between two servers (the server where you enter this command and the server you specify). Use the server's full hierarchical name. If the server name is more than one word, enclose the entire name in quotes. To force replication of a particular database that the servers have in common, specify the database name after the server name. The initiating server (where you're currently working) first pulls changes from the other server, and then pushes its own updates to the answering server. Using Pull-Push, the replicator task on the calling server performs all the work.
If the server is already replicating when you issue the command, IBM® Lotus® Domino® queues the command until the current replication ends. To check the status of the Replicator, enter this command at the console:
To force replication in only one direction, use the Pull or Push server commands.
Examples:
Replicate Marketing/Acme -- Initiates replication between your server and the Marketing/Acme server. The server console displays messages indicating when replication begins.
Replicate Marketing/Acme NAMES.NSF -- Initiates replication of NAMES.NSF between your server and the Marketing/Acme.
