Creating one replica manually
Follow these steps to create one replica of a database if you don't have access to the IBMR LotusR Domino(TM) Administrator or if you want to customize settings for the replica as you create it.

1. Make sure that you:

2. Make sure that the source server: 3. Make sure that the destination server: 4. Open the database.

5. Choose File - Replication - New Replica.


6. Next to Server, click the arrow and select the destination server on which you want to place the new replica.

7. Specify the file name and title for the new replica. Any file name you choose must be unique to the workstation or server on which you place the replica. The file name doesn't replicate. To put the replica in a folder within the data folder, next to File name type the folder name, backslash, and then the file name -- for example, JOBS\POSTINGS. If the specified folder does not exist, Domino creates it for you.

8. (Optional) Click "Replication settings" to select replication settings for the new replica.

9. (Optional) Click Encryption, select "Locally encrypt this database using," and click OK to encrypt the database with the server ID file. Choosing this option prevents users from copying or replicating the database to their workstations and prevents users from accessing the database directly at the server. This feature works only if the database ACL specifies the server as the user type "Server" or "Server group."

For more information on encryption, see Notes and Domino encryption .

10. (Optional) For Release 4 format databases only: To allow a database to grow beyond the default 1GB limit, click "Size Limit," select an option, and click OK.

11. Choose one of the following:

12. Select "Copy Access Control List" to copy the ACL from the original to the new replica. If you want to be a Manager of the new replica, make sure you have Manager access in the ACL of the original. Or to automatically give yourself Manager access to the new replica, deselect "Copy Access Control List." Make sure the server on which you're creating the replica is included in the ACL and any design element access lists.

13. (Optional) Select "Create full text index for searching" to create a full-text index on the new replica.

For more information on full-text indexes, see Lotus Domino Administrator Help.

14. Click OK.
