Replica existing instance
i have a production ADAM instance (prod) on one physical server. i just created a Replica Existing Instance on another physical server. i plan to use my Replica instance for my DR box.how long does it take to replica after creating Replica instance ? how do i compare data btw prod instance and replica instance.based on my understanding, all configurations areidentical: database name, instance name, port #and so on. the only thing diff. is host namei know if i made a change to prod, it will replicate to Replica instance. if i made a change to Replica instance, will it replicate with prod.

Hi,
Please check the answers below:
Replication within a site occurs automatically on the basis of change notification. Intrasite replication begins when a directory update occurs. By default, the source ADAM instance waits 15 seconds and then sends an update notification to its closest replication partner.

You can use the utility Repadmin to check the replication status:

ADAM uses a type of replication called multimaster replication. Through replication, ADAM copies directory data updates that are made to a directory partition on one ADAM instance to other ADAM instances that hold copies of the same directory partition.
