You can set up replication automatically using the QuickSetup GUI when you first install the directory server, if you have configured all of the directory servers in the same manner. You cannot use the setup command to configure replication in command-line mode. If you set up your directory servers by using the setup command, you can use the dsreplication command to configure replication between the servers.
dsreplication accesses the server configuration over SSL through the administration connector. For more information, see Managing Administration Traffic to the Server
In any topology, you should have two replication servers for availability, in case one replication server fails. Replication servers are responsible for keeping track of all changes in the environment. Each replication server contains a list of all other replication servers in the topology.
The examples in this section assume that you have already installed two directory servers and populated one with data.
