Options

Read Database Immediately upon Selection: When this is selected, replicationEZ will display all of a database's properties as soon as its checkbox is ticked.
Read Database only when 'Apply' Button is Clicked: When this is selected, replicationEZ will only display a database's properties after you click the Apply button at the bottom of the Databases panel. This option can improve performance when you're accessing databases using a slow connection. NB: This option is automatically selected if you use a Database Selection Filter.
Database Files: Offers the following options for customizing the display of database filenames in the Databases panel:
- Show Title: Displays the database's title (e.g: Bookmarks).
- Show File Name: Displays the database's filename (e.g: bookmark.nsf).
- Show Title - File Displays the database's title followed by its filename (e.g: Bookmarks -- bookmark.nsf).
- Show File - Tile Displays the database's filename followed by its title (e.g: bookmark.nsf -- Bookmarks).
Full Access Administration: Like all Ytria tools, replicationEZ supports Full Access Administration.

Tools

Compare ACLs: This option will launch a process to compare the ACLs across replicas for any selected databases; results will be shown in the ACL Comparator grid.
Copy ACLs: This option allows you to copy the ACL of a selected database from one server's replica to another server's replica.
