Lync CMS Replication Issue


Lync CMS Replication Issue

There are some situations where your CMS replication will not be working on a specific server.

In the below screenshot you can find “LSFE01” Server replication status shows disconnected.

You can check the CMS replication status by running the following command Get-CsManagementStoreReplicationStatus. If all is well, every server's UpToDate status will be True.

In this scenario the status for “LSFE01” server is “False”.

There can be only one Master CMS, but each server has a copy of CMS downloaded from the Master CMS frequently.

The first server deployed will be holding the Master CMS, but we can move to another server if required.

You can find a share with \\servername\xds-replica on each Lync server which is used to copy the updates between the servers. Sometimes, CMS replication will fail on a specific server.

You can run the following command to force the replication.
Invoke-CsManagementStoreReplication -ReplicaFqdn servername
Wait for few minutes, if status is not changed. You can follow the troubleshooting steps mentioned below.
