Summary
Creates a feature class that contains the geometries for all the replicas in a geodatabase. Attributes in the feature class store the information from the replica manager.
Usage
The output feature class can be any geodatabase feature class (File, Personal, or ArcSDE).
Syntax
CreateReplicaFootprints_management (in_workspace, out_workspace, output_featureclass_name)
| Parameter | Explanation | Data Type |
in_workspace | The geodatabase containing the replicas from which you would like to create the replica footprint. The geodatabase must be a local geodatabase; it cannot be a geodata service. | Workspace |
out_workspace | The output geodatabase that will hold the replica footprints feature class once it is created. The geodatabase may be local or remote. | Workspace |
output_featureclass_name | The name of the replica footprints feature class to be created. | String |
Code sample
CreateReplicaFootprints Example (Python Window)
The following Python Window script demonstrates how to use the CreateReplicaFootprints function in the Python window.
import arcpy
from arcpy import env
env.workspace = "C:/Data/MySDEdata.sde"
arcpy.CreateReplicaFootprints_management(env.workspace, env.workspace, "replicaFootprints")
CreateReplicaFootprints Example 2 (stand-alone Python script)
The following Python script demonstrates how to use the CreateReplicaFootprints function in a stand-alone script.
# Name CreateReplicaFootprints_Example2.py
# Description: Creates a replica footprints feature class for an SDE workspace.
# The output FC is stored in the same SDE workspace.
# Import system modules
import arcpy
from arcpy import env
# Set workspace
env.workspace = "C:/Data/MySDEdata.sde"
# Set local variables
out_FC = "replicaFootprints"
arcpy.CreateReplicaFootprints_management(env.workspace, env.workspace, out_FC)
