What is “passive replication” and how should it be factored into TurboGold configurations?
A. The TurboGold verifier can be configured in the proxy mode to cache shared data accessed from other Domino servers. In an organization that heavily accesses shared databases from remote Domino servers, locating a caching TurboGold verifier close to the end users can reap excellent performance benefits. As data passes through the TurboGold verifier it is cached for future retrievals. This “passive replication” technique saves replication time and bandwidth by allowing users to get their data from the TurboGold verifier rather than having to transverse the link to the remote Domino server. In this mode it is assumed the client is configured to use the TurboGold verifiers closest to its location.
