Bridge Head Server not set correctly

Question

Hi I have got 4 DCS

DC-A (Site-1)
DC-B (Site-1)
DC-C (Site-2)
DC-D (Site-2)

When I run repadmin /bridgeheads I am informed that DC-A is my Bridge Head Server. However when I look at Sites and Services, DC-A only replicates "to" and "From" DC-B!
However DC-B replicates to DC-C, and DC-A.

I would have assumed that surely there should be a link from DC-A to DC-C as both are my bridgehead servers. All of these connections are automatically generated, and none have been created manually.

Answer 1

I am sorry this does answer my question. Everything I have read states the Bridge Head server replicates to and from other bridge head servers in other sites. Therefore within Sites and Service is it not expected that you should see a link between Site-1 and Site-2

Answer 2

Sounds like someone has manually configured the bridgeheads. May want to remove any manual configured and let KCC auto generate them.

Answer 3

No this is the strange thing, all connections are automatic! No manual connections have been created

Answer 4

Another option may be to stand up some new ones for replacement.
