How does replication of Address Book Views (ABV) tie in with directory replication (ie is it just part of the scheduled replication process)? I have 8 servers replicate with BEServer but are on staggared schedules so that no 2 are replicating at the same time. However at the same time every morning (2:00 AM)the router spikes with activity coming from Exchange. Event viewer shows that BEServer is doing ABV replication with all servers at the same time which would explain the spike. However, this is not something I have scheduled. I can find no schedule on any server to coincide with this activity. HELP!!!! (Note: these 9 servers are part of dozens of servers worldwide with over 50K+ names in the gal. The ABV's are created on another server outside of these 9)

You need to go into the Exchange Administrator in raw mode. This can be accomplished by going to the command line and changing to Exchsrvr/bin then entering ADMIN /r.
Once open you need to select from the menu View / Raw Directory. Then click on the schema and look for the entry Period-Rep-Sync-Times this may give you an indication as to the times it will request ABV replications.
