Site Replication Service (SRS) is an Exchange 2000 directory service (similar to the directory used in Exchange Server 5.5) that allows integration with downstream Exchange 5.x sites using both remote procedure calls (RPCs) and mail-based replication. SRS works in conjunction with Active Directory Connector (ADC) to provide replication services from Active Directory to the Exchange 5.x Directory Service.
An Exchange 2000 server running SRS acts as a directory replication bridgehead for an Exchange 5.5 site. As SRS receives directory replication messages from other servers running Exchange, the replicated directory information synchronises from the server running Exchange 2000 to Active Directory.
To manage this directory replication information, the Exchange 2000 server running SRS keeps a local database called the SRS database. It is important that you back up and restore SRS databases.
