Message size limits aren't supposed to apply to public folder replication messages.
I think you should wait a little while longer.

All servers are 5.5sp4. I thought it would be simple - from admin.exe, root folder of the structure, add a replica to the new folder, propagate to the subfolders. Check the public info stores in both server: Replication schedule is set to always. Since this has some priority, lower the interval to 5 minutes and push up the message size limit to 2MB (probably overkill). Wait for full replication (has been a couple of days due to other issues). Public store on the destination server has grown a lot, then stopped (looking at the free space on the filesystem). Huh ? the public store now seems to be about 8GB, outlook said 3GB (and there sould be some SIS kicking in, too), after another day I've got (on the dest server) 1221 events of 116MB free in public. Free space ?? Let's check the replication status: source server\pf store\server replication status says: in sync on dest server says: local modified. Hmm I suppose this is because those are live folders - users are working in some of them, in the original copy on source server I suppose (since that one says in sync) Let's check which folders exactly. source server\pf store\folder replication status: huh ? Almost all of those are "local modified", only 27 folders are in sync - should be at least 50% due to the current usage pattern. Also, only 44 folders (only 2 of those are in sync) have a last received time, starting from the moment I added the second replica to "now". All the other have a empty entry in that column, although something must have been replicated since the store on the dest server grew a lot more than the expected amount. Check the same on the dest server: about 41 of those folders are listed, all have a "last received time" listed, all are in sync except a couple. Where are the others ? Am I doing something wildly wrong or is it just a matter of time ? Heiko -- -- PREVINET S.p.A.
