A Replication Configuration object enables the user to configure the replication mechanism (copying) for objects. The mechanism provides the possibility to configure and control the detailed replication behavior as:

Definition of the object types to be copied
Definition of the list of properties to be regarded for a certain type
Definition of the values to be copied
Customization of a single copy process (of the object itself and of a single property value)

References

The mechanism can also copy objects referring to the source object and, if configured accordingly, sets the reference of the newly created object to the newly created reference target. A Reference Configuration object allows the

Definition whether the copying should create a new target object or refer to the same target as the source object (valid for forward References only)
Definition of the References to be copied
Customization of the copy process of a Reference (possibility to cancel)

Relations

The mechanism can also copy relation data objects referring to the source object and, if configured accordingly, sets the relation for the newly created object. A Relation Configuration object allows the

Definition whether the copying of a relation should create a new child or should relate to the same as for the template
Customization of the copy process of a Relation Data (possibility to cancel)

Documents

For copying document objects it is possible to configure

Whether the copying system will create a local copy of the physical (file)document
Customization of the copy process of a Document (possibility to cancel)

Configuration objects

There are different configuration objects available, each for a certain purpose:

Instance Replication: for replicating standard content objects
Reference Replication: for replicating References
Relation Replication: for replicating Relations (relational data)
Document Replication: for replicating Document objects
