Limiting what a replica sends

You can limit what one replica sends to other replicas by setting the following replication settings.

About this task

  • Send deletions made in this replica to other replicas -- This setting, when deselected, prevents deletions made in this replica from replicating. As an alternative, you can deselect the ACL option "Delete documents" for the server storing this replica.
  • Send changes in database title and catalog info to other replicas -- This setting, when deselected, prevents changes made to this replica's database title or Database Catalog categories from replicating.
  • Send changes in local security property to other replicas -- This setting, when deselected, prevents changes to the database Encryption property (set by choosing Encryption on the Basics tab of the Database Properties box). Use this primarily to prevent changes made to this property on a local replica from replicating to a server. For example, if this setting is selected and you disable the Encryption property on a local replica, the property remains selected on a server replica.
