Replication Monitor

Use REPLMON to query and control replication and to view the location of the FSMO roles as shown in the following dialogs.

 

 

 

 

REPADMIN is a command line utility which provides replication status information.  For example, use the showutdvec option to display the highest USN on a server.

 

C:\>repadmin /showutdvec . dc=newdomain,dc=com

 

repadmin running command /showutdvec against server localhost Caching GUIDs.

Default-First-Site-Name\WIN2003 @ USN 16433 @ Time 2003-04-23 20:11:44

 

REPADMIN has many other functions. See the Replication section for an example of the showmeta parameter. Entering REPADMIN with no options provides the following help information.

Note: Most commands take their parameters in the order of "Destination or Target DC_LIST",

then a "Soure DC_NAME" if required, and finally the NC or Object DN if required.

 

DC_LIST or DC_NAME is the proper DNS or NetBios name of a DC, for more options see

repadmin /listhelp.

 

<Dest DC>, <Source DC>, <DC> : Names of the appropriate servers <Naming Context> is the Distinguished Name of the root of the NC

 

Example: DC=My-Domain,DC=Microsoft,DC=Com

 

Note: Text (Naming Context names, server names, etc) with International or Unicode characters will only display correctly if appropriate fonts and language support are loaded
