Determines the complete synchronization status on the selected server that has a replica of<br />
the selected partition. This helps you determine the health of a partition. If the server with<br />
a replica on the partition is synchronizing properly, the partition is considered healthy. The<br />
server is immediately synchronized to every other server in the replica ring. The server<br />
does not synchronize with itself. Therefore, the status for the current server’s own replica<br />
is displayed as Host.<br />
• Send All Objects to Every Replica in the Ring<br />
Sends all objects from the selected server in the replica ring to all other servers that<br />
contain a replica of the partition. This operation can generate a lot of network traffic. Use<br />
this option to ensure that the selected partition’s replica on the selected server in the<br />
replica ring is synchronized with all other servers in the replica ring. This operation cannot<br />
be performed on a server that contains only a subordinate reference replica of the partition.<br />
• Receive All Objects from the Master to This Replica<br />
Receives all objects from the master replica to the replica on the selected servers. This<br />
operation can generate a lot of network traffic. Use this option to ensure that the selected<br />
partition’s replica on the selected server in the replica ring is synchronized with the master<br />
replica. This operation cannot be performed on a server that contains only a master<br />
replica.<br />
• View Entire Server's Name<br />
Used to view the complete server name when the width of the server name is too long to<br />
view from within the server table.<br />
• Remove This Server from Replica Ring<br />
(Advanced switch option.) Removes a selected server from the selected replica stored on<br />
the current server. If a server appears in the replica ring but it is no longer part of the<br />
<strong>eDirectory</strong> tree or no longer contains a replica of the partition, delete the Server object<br />
using iManager. When the Server object has been deleted, the object should eventually be<br />
excluded from the replica ring.<br />

WARNING: Misuse of this operation can cause irrevocable damage to the <strong>eDirectory</strong><br />
database. You should not use this option unless directed by <strong>Novell</strong> Support personnel.<br />
• View Entire Partition Name<br />
Determines the complete distinguished partition name when the width of the partition is too<br />
great to view from within the replica table.<br />
• Repair Time Stamps and Declare a New Epoch<br />
(Advanced switch option.) Provides a new point of reference to the master replica so that all<br />
updates to replicas of the selected partition are current. This operation is always performed on<br />
the master replica of a partition. The master replica does not need to be in the local replica on<br />
this server. Time stamps are placed on objects when they are created or modified and they must<br />
be unique. All time stamps in a master replica are examined. If any time stamps are post-dated<br />
to the current network time, they are replaced with a new time stamp.<br />
• Destroy the Selected Replica on This Server<br />
(Advanced switch option.) Removes the selected replica on this server. Using this option is not<br />
recommended. Use this option only when all other utilities are unable to delete the replica.<br />
• Delete Unknown Leaf Objects<br />
