No. The only replication that happens is that which is configured. You could script up whatever actions you wanted, of course. -jh- ___ General mailing list General@developer.marklogic.com http://developer.marklogic.com/mailman/listinfo/general

A slight refinement; replicas are equivalent copies rather than exact copies. You'll have the same fragments, but likely organized differently into stands.

[MarkLogic Dev General] Local-disk forest failover
Hi, When a local-disk failover happens, will the replica forest (which just became the primary forest) need to reindex ? Also, will the surviving cluster node try to replicate the new forest to some other cluster members ?
