Replicators

Replicators connect the various databases to estos MetaDirectory. Different data sources may be integrated depending on the available licenses. Any number of replicators may be created for each active data source.

The replicator interfaces in MetaDirectory will display the replicators that have already been configured. In addition to name, type, status and the scheduling parameters, the status of the last replication process will be displayed. The replicators can be managed using either the buttons under the list or the context menu.

Start

	Replicators can only be setup and modified when they are locally connected with the server. The data sources will be opened from the server and must be configured locally for that reason.
	Keep in mind that for some replicators additional software-components might be required. => Installation Notes
	The databases created by a replicator will be retained after the replicator has been deleted. The databases will have to be removed using the Database Management dialog.
