Restarting Replication
A replication storm is bad, but you do want public folder replication to proceed
when network conditions are stable. Without replication, functions such as free/busy
information won't work properly because servers can't replicate data between
each other. You can start replication by clicking the organization object in
ESM and selecting the Resume Public Folders Content Replication option. ESM
displays this option to resume replication only when a stop-replication operation
is in effect.
ESM then displays a dialog box asking you to confirm that you want to restart
replication. If you confirm, ESM sends a message to the public folder servers
to tell them to restart replication. Servers resume replication according to
their usual replication schedule, so if you've configured servers to replicate
data once a day at midnight, they won't resume replication until that time.
Before you restart replication, you should ensure that you've addressed any
problems that caused the original replication storm. . . .
