copying a replica file

[mistereli]

Would I cause any problems by making a copy of a replica
file from our network to my desktop? My intention is to
just look at the copied file and delete it afterwards. Will it screw up the replication status of the replica I copied it from?

Thanks!

No, if you are just going to make a copy and then delete it. I do it all the time without error. But if you plan on making changes to it and then re-synchronize it with other replicas, it should not let you because it is not part of that replication group. Hope this helps

Yes, it helps a great deal! I thank you!
