Tool Location

The Replmon graphical user interface (GUI) tool is included when you install Windows Server 2003 Support Tools from the product CD or from the Microsoft Download Center (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=100114). For more information about how to install Windows Support Tools from the product CD, see Install Windows Support Tools (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=62270).

The Replmon graphical user interface tool was removed from Windows Server 2008 and later. Repadmin is still available for troubleshooting replication. For more information on using Repadmin, see Monitoring and Troubleshooting Active Directory Replication Using Repadmin and Getting Over Replmon.

Replmon.exe: Active Directory Replication Monitor

This GUI tool enables administrators to view the low-level status of Active Directory replication, force synchronization between domain controllers, view the topology in a graphical format, and monitor the status and performance of domain controller replication.

You can use ReplMon to do the following:

  • See when a replication partner fails.

  • View the history of successful and failed replication changes for troubleshooting purposes.

  • View the properties of directory replication partners.

  • Create your own applications or scripts written in Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) to extract specific data from Active Directory.

  • View a snapshot of the performance counters on the computer, and the registry configuration of the server.

  • Generate status reports that include direct and transitive replication partners, and detail a record of changes.

  • Find all direct and transitive replication partners on the network.

  • Display replication topology.

  • Poll replication partners and generate individual histories of successful and failed replication events.

  • Force replication.

  • Trigger the Knowledge Consistency Checker (KCC) to recalculate the replication topology.

  • Display changes that have not yet replicated from a given replication partner.

  • Display a list of the trust relationships maintained by the domain controller being monitored.

  • Display the metadata of an Active Directory object's attributes.

  • Monitor replication status of domain controllers from multiple forests.

Corresponding UI

ReplMon provides its own user interface. See Replmon UI for more information.
