Partition Continuity helps you identify whether any of a partition's replicas are
experiencing synchronization errors. It does this by examining all of the
servers holding replicas of a selected partition and verifying that each server
has the same information for the partition's replica list (or replica ring). This
operation is also known as "walking the replica ring."
If each server holding a replica of the chosen partition does not have an
identical replica list, or if a replica cannot synchronize with the eDirectory
Tree for any reason, the Partition Continuity Table displays one or more errors.
Errors appear as exclamation points inside the replica icons.
The Partition Continuity Table displays the replica list (columns) of each
server (rows) that holds a replica of the chosen partition. To understand the
partition grid, read it horizontally, one server at a time. Each row represents
the replica list of that server.
