    ByVal versionName As String, _
    ByVal srcGDS As IGeoDataServer, _
    ByVal destGDS As IGeoDataServer, _
    ByVal ReplicaName As String, _
    ByVal desc As IGPReplicaDescription, _
    ByVal repOptions As IGPReplicaOptions _
)
[C#]
public void CreateReplica (
    string versionName,

Remarks

The IReplicationAgent::CreateReplica method is used to create replicas in a connected environment.  This method may be used to create check-out replicas, two way replicas, or one way replicas.  To create replicas in a disconnected environement please see the IGeodataserver::CreateReplica method for more information

This method requires two input geodataserver objects,a srcGDS and a destGDS. The replicas will be created in the geodatabases represented by the input geodataserver objects. The srcGDS will host the parent replica, and the destGDS will host the child replica in the replica pair. See the GeoDataServer2 coclass for more information. The ReplicaName is a string that uniquely identifies the replica.

The versionName is the version on the geodatabase represented by the srcGDS from which the replica will be created.

The desc parameter defines the data which will be replicated. See the GPReplicaDescription coclass for more information.

The repOptions parameter defines replica options such as the replica access type. See the GPReplicaOptions coclass for more information.

[C#]

The How to create a replica in a connected environment topic describes how to create a replica using this method.
