Re: Active Directory 2003: Intra-Site Replication of Schema Partit

So what is normal intrasite notification then?

It is my understanding by default that a Windows 2003 domain has a 15 second
latency before it will notify a partner DC of changes. So, you can see from
my repadmin results that the schema partition is getting updated from the hub
to the bridgehead but it isn't getting updated from the bridgehead to the
second DC. Is that normal? I know there is a default setting to intra-site
replicate at least every 60 minutes, if the partition hasn't been updated. So
is inter-site updating every 15 minutes all paritions, changes or not, but
intra-site replicaiton only replicating of there are changes in the partition
or 60 minutes?

according with your repadmin results, you have 2 DCs in the Branch-Site
(BranchDC01, BranchDC02)
BranchDC01 is the BH server and that server is the server that replicates
with other BH servers in different Site(s).
BranchDC02 will follow the normal intrasite replication as normal.

C:\>repadmin /replsummary /bysrc /bydest /sort:delta
Replication Summary Start Time: 2007-09-11 10:48:56

Beginning data collection for replication summary, this may take awhile:
......................................


Source DC largest delta fails/total %% error
BranchDC01 47m:56s 0 / 3 0
BranchDC02 10m:23s 0 / 6 0
HubDC02 09m:44s 0 / 13 0

Destination DC largest delta fails/total %% error
BranchDC02 48m:35s 0 / 3 0
BranchDC01 02m:42s 0 / 6 0
HubDC02 :18s 0 / 10 0


So after 60 minutes The BranchDC02 will automatically sync the schema
partition which is what I expect. But since adding the second domain
controller to branch-site, repadmin /replsummary is always 50+ minutes but
before that it was never over 15 minutes. When I demote the second domain
controller, things go back to 15 minutes. So, do I have a problem or is
this
normal?

Hi
What do you meant with no replication schema?
Any errors in event log?
can you post the results for the repadmin cmd.

I have AD 2003 with about 10 domain controllers. I have two hubs with
two
domain controllers which change notification turned on. The rest are in
remote locations, one per location, and replicate changes every 15
minutes.
I have location where I added a second domain controller. I have a
script
I
run daily that runs repadmin /replsummary. Since I added the second
domain
controller my repadmin /repsummary has gone from 15 minutes to 55-60
minutes.
I know that by default AD will replicate every 60 minutes. By looking
at
repadmin /showrepl I see that the schema not replicating but the other
partitions are from the bridgehead to second DC. Is this normal. All
the
tests, dcdiag, netdiag, etc., I run don't show any errors?
