Replication and terrains, network datasets, parcel fabrics, and representations

This topic applies to ArcGIS for Desktop Standard and ArcGIS for Desktop Advanced only.

When replicating terrains and network datasets, only the feature classes used to build these data structures can be replicated. The actual data structures themselves are not replicated. For the feature classes to be replicated, they must be registered as versioned and meet the other data requirements for replication. You can choose to rebuild the terrain or network dataset in the child replica's geodatabase after replica creation.

Note that for network datasets, turn feature classes and traffic and time zone tables are not replicated. However, sign post feature classes are replicated

Parcel fabrics are supported by replication, however they are excluded from replicas you create with the simple model option. During synchronization, adjustment vectors will be synchronized, however, jobs and associated feature classes will not.

If your data has representations prior to replica creation, they will be replicated. If you apply a symbol to a feature in one replica and synchronize, the symbol will also be applied to the feature in the relative replica. Modifications to representations, however, are not supported. For example, consider the case where a new symbol is added to a representation and applied to a feature in a replica. When that feature is synchronized, it draws with an unknown symbol in the relative replica, since the new symbol does not exist in the relative replica. It is also possible to add a different symbol with the same ID to the relative replica. In this case, the feature added from the synchronization draws with the incorrect symbol in the relative replica.
