Setting special replication limitations
You can use the Other page of the Replication Settings dialog box to disable replication, replicate documents based on their age, set the replica's priority in the schedule, or set a CD-ROM publishing date for the selected replica. Settings on the Other page apply to the selected replica in all locations.

For information on specifying priority in the replication schedule, see To add a replica to the schedule and set its priority.

If the Replication Settings dialog box is not open, open the replica you want to customize, choose File - Replication - Settings, and click Other.

To disable replication temporarily for a replica

You can disable replication for a selected replica temporarily. This is useful if you want to prevent a database from being updated, for example to see whether a local replica is corrupted before replicating with a server. All other replicas of the database, local or on servers, go on replicating unless you also disable replication for them.

Tip Removing the check mark in the On column of the Replicator page for a replica also disables replication.

1. Open a replica and choose File - Replication - Settings.

2. Under "Other," select "Temporarily disable replication for this replica," and click OK.

1. Open a replica and choose File - Replication - Settings.

2. Under "Other," select "CD-ROM publishing date" and enter a date.

3. Click OK.
