We replicate across the country. We did a seed drive initially and have generally been happy with the replication.
It seems lately that the connection in Portland has become less reliable, so my question is: how can I made sure replication has the lightest impact on the ISP/modem.
1) is it possible for a replication session to survive a full ISP connection drop, if it's only about 1 or 2 min long??
2) I've set the max speed to 5/MBs (which is more than the whole uplink anyway) and I JUST changed Max Parallel Streams from 4 to 2. I'm thinking Max Parallel Streams might be a really good thing to lighten the load. and I'll reduce the Max Speed too.
3) I set Cache and Session timeout to Max (60).
The 2 settings I've just changed, will they take affect immediately, or does the core need to restart, or replication need to restart?
AND I'm I on the right track?
thanks,
Jordan
