If you want to check the replication status of an ADLDS (Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services) instance, you can use the command repadmin.
By default all commands issued to repadmin will use the default LDAP ports (389/636). If your ADLDS instance uses different ports, you can add a parameter to the repadmin command.
1. Check replication status summary for ADLDS running on a custom port
To view the replication summary, open up a Powershell window as administrator, and issue the following command.
Example we are using here is: host “localhost” with ADLDS port “1234”. Change this to your configuration.
repadmin /replsummary localhost:1234
Example output:
PS C:\Windows\system32> repadmin /replsummary localhost:1234 Replication Summary Start Time: 2022-01-01 00:00:01 Beginning data collection for replication summary, this may take awhile: .... Source DSA largest delta fails/total %% error windowsservername1$adlds 04m:31s 0 / 3 0 Destination DSA largest delta fails/total %% error windowsservername2$adlds 04m:31s 0 / 3 0
2. Show replication (different output)
You can also use the following command “/showrepl” to get a different replication status output with servernames:
PS C:\Windows\system32> repadmin /showrepl localhost:1234
This gives the following output:
