Question
How do you change the replica ID of a Lotus Notes/Lotus Domino database?
Answer
The only supported way to change a replica ID within Lotus Notes or Domino is to create a new copy of the database using the Notes client. From the File menu, choose Database --> New Copy. This creates a random (based on the current system time) new replica ID for the new database.
Disclaimer:
There are third party applications available on the web that can also change the replica ID of a Notes Database. There are also agent samples and LotusScript code suggestions available on the internet that may be able to accomplish this. However, these applications and agents are not supported by IBM Lotus Technical Support and no recommendations or assistance with their use can be provided.
