Understanding
Replmon
Replication monitor is the GUI tool which is introduced
Windows Server 2003
Support Tools to monitor and control the AD DC replication. You can avail this
either with the operating system CD or from Microsoft download centre. The
Replmon graphical user interface tool was removed from Windows Server 2008 and
later and it is replaced by CLI utility ‘repadmin’.
More details of using repadmin is available in http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770963.aspx
However
you can still install and use replmon in server 2008 and later by following
these steps.
1.Download
the replmon from the above below link.
2. Run
‘Supptools.msi’, you may need to run
it with Administrative Privileges (Right-click > Run as Administrator).
3. You'll
get a compatibility message, Click ‘Run
Program’ to continue with installation.
4.
You
will have the welcome window, continue to complete the installation.
5. Once the installation is completed Open the
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Support
Tools" folder and locate Replmon.exe.
Double-click on it to launch.
6. Right click on ‘Monitored server’ and select ‘Add
monitored server’.
7. You can either select ‘Add the server explicitly by name’ which will help you to specify
the server name manually or ‘Search the
directory for the server to add’ this will automatically identify the
directory service and list. I have preferred to go with second option.
8. On next windows select the server that you
want to add to monitoring list and click ‘Finish’.
9. Repeat the above steps to add more servers
to your monitors list.
