Agent

Each machine in the Site must have at least one Replication Agent running to be included in the site.

`FCREPLAgent`

Class

FCREPLAgent

The Replication Manager has a distributed management so it requires at least one Replication Manager agent per machine. This class manages this agent information.

Note

Do not manually create/change any of these objects since it is managed internally. You can look at the values of these objects but do not change them.
