USING NOTES OFFLINE


Limiting information received from other replicas
You can use the Advanced page of the Replication Options dialog box to specify a computer and control some of the information received from replicas on one or more servers.

You can specify a subset of folders and views to receive, and specify whether changes to design elements, agents, the replication formula, the access control list, deletions, and fields are received.

Note: The options in this page do not control information that is sent from replicas on this computer during replication. To limit what is sent from one computer, you must adjust the options for what is received by other computers.

If the Replication Settings dialog box is not open, open the replica you want to customize, clickFile > Replication > Options for this Application, and click Advanced.

To set all replicas on a specified computer to receive only a subset of folders or views

You can limit all replicas of an application on your computer or on a server, so that they receive only documents in the folders or views you select. This is useful when you use multiple replicas for traveling or working at home and you use specific folders or views only at the office. The folders and views are not removed from the designs of the limited replicas; only the documents in the folders or views are affected.

CAUTION: If you set this limit on existing replicas on a computer, at the next replication all documents that are not in the specified folders or views will be deleted from the replicas.

1. Open a replica (local or server) and click File > Replication > Options for this Application.

2. Under Advanced, in the When computer field, specify the computer on which you want to limit replicas.

3. In the Receives from field, specify which computers should limit what they send: one server, or all servers (the Any Server option), that contain replicas of the application.

4. Select Documents in specified views or folders.

5. Select the folders and views you want to keep. Press Shift to select multiple and Ctrl to select multiple nonconsecutive elements in the list.

6. Click OK.

To use a formula to control what is received in all replicas on a computer

If you are familiar with IBMR Lotus NotesR application design, have access to IBM LotusR DominoR Designer, and are a designer of the application you want to modify, you can use a formula to specify what elements are received in all replicas of an application on your computer or on a server.

CAUTION: Modifying application design, especially of your mail, can have unforeseen consequences, and is not usually necessary. If you have questions, see your IBM Lotus Domino Administrator. If you create a local replica from selected documents, you can then apply the formula to those documents by selecting Selected documents on the Advanced page of the Replication Options dialog box.

For more information on creating a selection formula, see Limiting the contents of a replica if you have installed Lotus Domino Designer Help. Or, go to Lotus Documentation on the Web to download or view Lotus Domino Designer Help.

To specify design and other elements received in all replicas on a computer

You can set all replicas of an application on your computer or on a server either to receive or not receive elements from other replicas. By default, all elements but the replication formula and any individually specified fields are received. You can specify settings for these elements:
