Warn before replicating to clients

Select this check box to request warnings before you manually replicate CMS database changes to client machines. These database changes include policy and account changes, for both users and machines.

Note: The warning dialog is only shown in the Administration Console that submitted the replication request. It also gives the administrator the option to cancel the replication.

Warn before moving users and groups

Select this check box to request warnings before you move users and groups into new parent groups. The warning dialog appears only in the Administration Console that initiated the move. It also allows the administrator to cancel the move.
