Showing and clearing replication information
The Replication History dialog box shows a list of replication events called entries. Each entry shows when and with which server a database last replicated, and whether data was sent or received.

If the Replication History dialog box is not open, select or open the database you want history for, and choose File - Replication - History.

Tip To see a list of all replicas of a database, right-click (Macintosh users, CTRL+click) the database's bookmark, choose Open Replica, and expand the list. Notes shows all replicas of the bookmarked database with a check mark beside the currently selected replica. Select a replica in the list to open it.

You may want to clear a replica database's replication history if you think the replica doesn't contain all the documents it should or if the database's replication history is out of sync with other replicas.

You must have manager access to a database to clear its replication history. You can clear individual entries within a database's replication history or clear the entire replication history.

Note If you have customized a replica to replicate documents based on age using a cutoff date, don't clear the replication history. The history works with the cutoff date to tell Notes which documents it can skip during replication, saving time. For more information, see To remove or replicate incoming documents based on age.

1. (Optional) To sort by date/time or by server name, click the up/down arrow at the top of the Date/Time or Server column.
