USER AND SERVER CONFIGURATION

Table of replication settings
By default, two replicas exchange all edits, additions, and deletions if the servers the replicas are on have the necessary access. However, you can customize replication. For example, to save disk space, you can prevent the transfer of documents that are not pertinent to your site.

You can specify replication settings on a new replica as you create it or on an existing replica. You can specify some replication settings for multiple replicas at once from a central source replica. You must have Manager access to a replica to set replication settings for it.

Caution Replication settings are not intended to be used as a security measure.

This table summarizes the available replication settings.
