Viewing a list of replicas in a partition

You can see a list of a partition's replicas, the servers where the replicas are stored, and whether a replica is a master, read/write, or read-only type.

You can view a replica list using NetWare Administrator or PARTMGR. Both procedures are described in this topic.

Listing replicas using NetWare Administrator

The following list describes the prerequesites:

• A 386 or later workstation and NetWare Administrator

• A minimum of 6MB of memory available on the workstation

• The Write property right to the ACL property of the NetWare Server Object for the replicas you want to view

1. From the Windows Program Manager, click on the ``NetWare Administrator'' icon.

2. From the Tools menu, select Partition Manager.

3. Browse the ``Partition Manager'' screen to locate the partition for the replica list you want to view.

   If the partition does not appear in the window, browse the Directory tree either by choosing an object to see its subordinates or by choosing the arrow key to move toward the Root. Your current context appears in the upper left corner of the screen.

   For information about moving around in the ``Partition Manager'' screen and selecting objects, choose the Help button.

4. Select the partition and choose ``Replicas''.

   A list of replicas appears, including the server where each replica is stored, the replica type, and the time and date of the last time the replica was synchronized with the other replicas.

Listing replicas using PARTMGR

The following list describes the prerequesites:

• A workstation running DOS 3.30 or later and PARTMGR

• A minimum of 512KB of memory available on the workstation

• The Write property right to the ACL property of the NetWare Server object for the replicas you want to view

1. At the DOS prompt, type
   
   PARTMGR

2. From the Partition Administration menu, choose Manage Partitions.

   Your current context appears in the upper left corner of the screen.

3. Select the partition whose replicas you want to list.

   • If the partition appears on the list, select it and press <F10>.

   • If the partition is not on the list, browse the Directory tree by selecting partitions and pressing <Esc> until you see the server you want. Select it and press <F10>.

   The Partition Management menu appears. Your current context appears in the title.

4. Select ``View/Edit Replicas''.

   The ``Replicas Stored on Server'' screen appears, which lists the replicas of the selected partition, the server on which they reside, and the type of each replica.
