Replication
You can create an offline (local) duplicate of any HCL Notes® application you use. Such a duplicate is called a replica.
Getting started with Replication
Replication allows you to keep a local version of a Notes® application on your hard disk drive. The local version is identical to the application on a server, so you can make changes to one version, and those changes will appear in both the local and server versions of the application. Replication is a great tool to have when working with large documents or applications, since the local version, or replica, of an application can open documents and views much faster than the server version, which has to open documents and views over a network.
How do I create a replica?
Use replication to make a server-based HCL Notes® application available on your computer, and keep it in sync with the server version.

How do I create a replica?

Use replication to make a server-based HCL Notes® application available on your computer, and keep it in sync with the server version.

About this task

After you create a replica, an entry for the replica appears on the Replication tab. You can later use the Replication tab to sync the replica with the server, or to set a schedule for syncing it at regular intervals.

Procedure

From an open application, click File > Application > Make Available Offline.

Note: This command is disabled when the focus is already on a local replica, or on a server-based application for which you already have a local replica.
To create the replica immediately, accept all defaults and click OK.
