12.8. Checking for Potential Replication Problems
Problem
You want to determine if replication is succeeding.
Solution
The following two commands will help identify problems with replication on a source domain controller:
> dcdiag /test:replications > repadmin /showrepl /errorsonly
Discussion
For a more detailed report, you can use the Replication Monitor
(replmon.exe). The Generate Status Report option
will produce a lengthy report of site topology, replication
information, and provide details on any errors encountered. The
Directory Service event log can also be an invaluable source of
replication and KCC problems.
