File Replication Service has detected and suppressed an average of %1 or more file updates
every hour for the last %2 hours because the updates did not change the contents of
the file. The tracking records in FRS debug logs will have the filename and event time
for the suppressed updates. The tracking records have the date and time followed by :T:
as their prefix.



Updates that do not change the content of the file are suppressed to prevent
unnecessary replication traffic. Following are common examples of updates that do not
change the contents of the file.



 [1] Overwriting a file with a copy of the same file.

 [2] Setting the same ACLs on a file multiple times.

 [3] Restoring an identical copy of the file over an existing one.



Suppression of updates can be disabled by running regedit.



Click on Start, Run and type regedit.



Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SYSTEM, CurrentControlSet, Services, NtFrs, Parameters,
and create or update the value "Suppress Identical Updates To Files" to 0 (Default is 1) to force
identical updates to replicate.
