When you generate a replica-creation or update packet, you can
specify that the store-and-forward facility must deliver it.
Both
mkreplica and
syncreplica support
the following options:
- The –fship option places the packet files and shipping order files
in one of the host’s storage bays and runs the shipping server to send the
packet files to their destination host or to route them to an intermediate
host.
- The –ship option places the packet files and shipping order files
in a storage bay, but does not invoke the shipping server. The packet files
are sent the next time the shipping server polls the bay.
