The point is, with high-speed links, you don’t need a meshed configuration. Nowhere near to it. It adds unnecessary overhead.

Configuring Change Notification on a MANUALLY created Replication partner http://blogs.technet.com/b/askds/archive/2013/01/21/configuring-change-notification-on-a-manually-created-replication-partner.aspx Change Notification on a manually created replication partner is configured by doing the following: 1. Open ADSIEDIT.msc. 2. In ADSI Edit, expand the Configuration container. 3. Navigate to the following location: \Sites\SiteName\Server\NTDS settings\connection object that was manually created 4. Right-click on the manually created connection object name. 5. In the Attribute Editor tab, double click on Options. 6. If the value is 0 then set it to 8. Won't that resolve the issue? And make sure that each DC replicates with each and every other DC? (there aren't automatically created links from/to every server, for obvious reasons. But in a 10 DC environment, with high speed links, why not?)
