michaelhbt Posted November 25, 2014 Report post Posted November 25, 2014 Have some remote sites on ~256k links planning on implementing primaries at each site (no we cannot use secondaries). Packages have all bee prestaged but I was wondering if it were possible to initialize the global data from the CAS by copying the "Microsoft Configuration Manager\inboxes\rcm.box\configuration data.pub" file on to the primary manually and copying data manually? Is it easier to build the primary site locally, do a backup, copy the backup and do a restore on the site? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter van der Woude Posted November 26, 2014 Report post Posted November 26, 2014 You can't copy the initial data manually. Also, don't forget that the main part is sql replication now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
