4. Expand the farms you want to configure alerts for. Under the Farm Alert Settings tab, select Replication Engine Stopped if you want to be notified when Connect cannot access Replicator on the farm. 5. Under the Server Alert Settings tab, select the alerts you want to receive for each Replication Connection. ETA and package count threshold alerts will only be sent if you have also configured those thresholds. See the ETA Threshold and Package Threshold sections for more information. As you enter select alerts, they are automatically saved. Event Logging Replicator logs events within Windows Event Viewer, both under the Metalogix Replicator Log, as well as the Windows Application Log. It is often convenient to compare time stamps of the events found in the Metalogix Replicator Log and the Windows Application Log when troubleshooting errors. You can also use Microsoft`s System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) for alerts for example by setting up a subscription in SCOM for your Replicator log and your Windows Application Log, you can receive alerts whenever an error is detected. This way you are kept up to date without having to monitor the event logs manually. Metalogix Replicator Log The events logged under Metalogix Replicator Log are those that affect the Replicator system directly. These include errors, warnings and general information messages. An example of a warning message includes: conflict detected An example of an information message includes: service started 31 of 34 Copyright Metalogix International GmbH, 2002-2015 metalogix.com

Windows Application Log Replicator also logs events within Windows Application Log. The events logged here are of a broader nature, and generally those that affect the Windows system as a whole, not just Replicator alone. These messages will include information messages about the starting of the Replicator system, and error messages that affect or are affected by the entire Windows system. The Windows Application Log can also be used by Replicator administrators to provide detailed information about parallel running programs, such as SharePoint and SQL server. This allows administrators to determine whether an issue lies within Replicator or if it is caused by a parallel running program. PowerShell You can use PowerShell scripts to check the status of your services. You can also set a task on your server to run the script automatically every hour, to ensure that your services are always running. Use the following script to start the Replicator services if they are not running: $strservicename = "Metalogix Replicator Transport Service WSS40" $objservice = Get-Service -Name $strservicename if ($objservice.status -ne "Running"){ Start-Service $strservicename } $strservicename = "Metalogix Replicator Service WSS40" $objservice = Get-Service -Name $strservicename if ($objservice.status -ne "Running"){ Start-Service $strservicename } Web Services In the event that you do not wish to monitor the replication of your environment using Connect, or the Monitoring Replicator page within Central Administration, you can write your own program, using web services, which will retrieve your replication information for you.
