Replication:- My experience, how to optimise in case of large no of files

[bisana]

Hi All
On a fresh installed alfresco instance I was able to replicate one site which had few folders and documents,without any error it got replicated.

But when I tried it with another site, which had lots of folders, subfolders and large no document. replication failed. The status kept on displaying that "This job is currently running. Job started:… "  and after long duration it failed.

In this case of large no folders and sub folders, is there any method or procedure to follow
Thanks

Hi
Since the replication is not working for big sites, I started looking for another work around
I did install another instance with same "alf_data" and mysql copied from the first server.
Now I tried to look for the repositoryID , I found out both the instance have the same repositryID.

If I am able to change one of the instance repositry ID , I can think abiut working on replication with already all the files and folders in it.
Is there any way in changing the repsotiryID

Advice requested

I think, the problem in with the DB
I feel it could be solved by optimizing the DB performance.
I will start a new thread for the same
Thanks
