My ADAM LDAP instances showing no replication

Recently I had migrate my LDAP instance from one server to another server and create an LDAP replica 

the problem I am facing is when I connect to my ADAM instance using Site and services on port 54072, I notice that there I can not perform a replication from the console

and when I click on the replication connection I got also nothing

I can run the replication using the repadmin, and I am getting its success, but I want to modify the replication interval, 

why there is nothing here

Hi Faris,

In order to solve the problem more efficiently I need to clarify some information.

Firstly, have you logged on using domain admin credentials?

Secondly,  please make sure that you are connecting to the specific Domain Controller. We can specify the Domain Controller through the Action menu.

Thirdly, whats your machines edition?

In regards to modifying replication interval, we can achieve this using Registry Editor.

Please perform the following steps:

  1. Click on Run in the Start menu, type regedit, then click on OK.
  2. Backup registry values for restoring in case anything goes wrong.
  3. Locate this registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters.
  4. Modify the REF_DWORD value of the key Replicator notify pause between DSAs to the time which you want.
  5. Save the changes , then reboot the server.

Note: Please take cautious when you are modifying the registry value.

Thanks for reply

I am using the domain admin account

and regarding for domain controller this is not a domain controller its an Active Directory Application Mode ADAM

The thing is I just want to modify the ADAM LDAP instances not the Active Directory (my Custom ADAM)

regarding for "Replicator notify pause between DSAs" the value is not exist

The Active Driectory Site and Services is working OK, but the Application Mode Site and services is not
