CLUSTERS

Pausing cluster replication
When you want to stop the Cluster Replicator temporarily, it is better to pause it than to stop it. When you pause the Cluster Replicator, it continues to store pending cluster replication events in memory and continues to store the Cluster Database Directory in memory. If you stop the Cluster Replicator, these things are deleted from memory. Therefore, you should replicate manually when you restart the Cluster Replicator to replicate any changes that were lost when the Cluster Replicator stopped. You do not have to replicate manually when you pause the Cluster Replicator.

When you pause the Cluster Replicator, it finishes processing the current task and then stops taking new requests until you resume cluster replication.
