Edit replication schedule properties

You can edit the properties for a replication schedule. The general procedure is similar to the procedure for adding a replication schedule.

Replication schedules are referenced by replication groups rather than copied, so changes to a replication schedule affect all replication groups that reference that schedule. However, changes to the tag naming rules (such as the schedule abbreviation) do not affect any tags already configured for replication.

You can modify replication schedules when there are existing replication entities referencing the schedules or groups. When you change the schedule for a summary tag, an extra replication summary is sent at the time of the configuration change to transition to the new schedule.

If you change an interval replication schedule to a custom replication schedule, there is loss of data on the next-tier Historian for the period from the last interval schedule to the first custom replication scheduled.

To edit properties for a replication schedule

1. In the Operations Control Management Console, expand a server group and then expand a server.

2. Expand Configuration Editor, expand System Configuration, expand Replication, then expand Replication Schedule.

3. Right-click the replication schedule to be modified and then click Properties. The Properties dialog box appears.

   

4. Edit the general properties. The options are the same as for adding a new replication schedule. For more information, see Add a replication schedule.

5. Click OK.
