On a spoke server, you may enable a replication task property that forces the spoke server to
retrieve a snapshot of the hub database rather than synchronizing changes back and forth. The
snapshot is a copy of the hub at the time of the operation. This feature is not normally used; it is
intended to help recover a system when replication has failed.
To display replication results and/or change the replication schedule for a
spoke server:
1. On the spoke server, click the System tab.
2. Click Tasks in the top navigation bar. The Tasks window will open.
3. Select the Database Replication task. The Task Results - Database Replication window will
open. This window contains the results of the most recent replication.
4. To display or change the replication schedule, click Schedule in the side navigation bar. The
Task Schedule - Database Replication window will open.
By default, the replication task runs every 12 hours. You may change the schedule type, start
time, date and interval.
5. To force the spoke server to retrieve a snapshot of the hub database rather than synchronizing
changes, click Properties in the side navigation bar and then click the Perform a hub database
snapshot the next time this task executes checkbox. This setting will be reset to unchecked after
the operation completes.
6. If you made any changes, click Save and then Close.
You may also display the replication schedule from the hub server, but you cannot change it.
