launch the Notes client in basic mode by either adding this line to the notes.ini: UseBasicNotes=1 or to edit the properties of the shortcut icon used to launch Notes and append ” -sa” (without the quotes) to the end of the command line that has notes.exe
This will then give you the window for Replicate with Options without the “Replicate via Background Replicator” option. This will tell us if the option is being grayed out by a policy or configuration in the workspace folder.
If you can use the Replication in Basic, please try to rename the /data/workspace folder into something like workspaceold. Then, restart Notes client so that it will be recreated.
