Just to be clear, the 5 minute/15 second value is the amount of time a DC will delay after an originating change before notifying its replication partners. Its not a replication schedule per se. The idea is that changes happen in clumps over time, and that its better to replicate a bunch of changes together in one cycle, which saves processing overhead doing mutual authentication and such
I would say that if your CPU loads are low and update rates aren't unreasonable, there would be no problem reducing the delay. -g Gil Kirkpatrick CTO, NetPro -----Original Message----- From: FDiskThePC [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2003 4:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] Intrasite Replication Schedule As most of you know, the default intrasite replication schedule in Windows 2000 is 5 minutes yet 15 seconds in Windows Server 2003. Has anyone changed the setting in a Windows 2000 domain (Q214678) to match the settings that are now the default in Windows Server 2003? The five minute replication is frustrating, because it can actually be up to 15 minutes with lots of DC's in a site. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. -Rick Dayton __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
