This topic explains how to use the Exchange Management Shell to suspend the replication of public folder content.

Note:
Suspending public folder replication applies only to content replication. Hierarchical replication will continue normally.

If you experience a configuration error pertaining to the replication of the public folder hierarchy, you must suspend the replication of public folder content and correct the error. You can resume the replication of public folder content after you have fixed the error, and then let the change replicate throughout the public folder hierarchy. For more information about how to resume public folder replication, see How to Resume Public Folder Content Replication.

Note:
You cannot use the Exchange Management Console to perform this procedure.
