We are in the process of upgrading to MarkLogic 8, from 7.

Our setup is: one master cluster, to which we do all writes, and two slave 
clusters.

We create all of our users, roles and privileges only once, when initially 
configuring a new server, we never update them.

But we figured we should replicate the Security db so that the ids of those 
users, roles and privileges would be identical between the master and slave 
clusters, so the permissions on documents written to master would work in the 
slave clusters. Is that unnecessary?

We have been assuming we should, and in ML7 doing so has not been a problem, 
but in ML8 we are seeing some problems around enabling/disabling db 
replication. The problems go away if we don't enable replication of the 
Security db.

I can describe the problems if necessary, but if you can tell me "don't bother 
replicating the Security db", I'd be happy.

Thanks for any advice,
John
