We have been experiencing problems with replication causing one or more of the archive servers to stop functioning.
The latest appears that the archive servers will perform On-Demand replication but as soon as the scheduled daily replication begins things lock up.
We are on our second week now with this problem and the number of files that need replicating between the servers is continuing to grow, let along the problems the users are experiencing.
Any help would be appreciated because our VAR and SolidWorks support have not been able to sort it out.
We are on 2012 SP0.
Thanks,
Marc
Update to this problem. The replication schema was pointing to the root directories on both archive servers and for some unknown reason it would not start replicating on one or both of the servers. When the root directory was removed from the schema and replaced with the next level of folders down everything worked fine. There were no files in the root directory to replicate, the files were all in lower level folders.
This is not solved as I want the root directories to work so when a new folder is created it will be replicated without having to go modify the replication schema every time.
It is as if the path was corrupted when it went to replicate, but the test function in replication settings passed.
I will post eventual solution when known.
