Abstract
A system and method in accordance with the present invention provides for replication in a content management system. Replication is provided by utilizing the library server to track the objects to be replicated within the system. The replication is accomplished by adding two tables to the library server, a copies table and replicate table. The copies tables includes three new parts flags. A first flag identifies an ending as a copied part. A second flag identifies that other copies of this part exist. Finally a third flag identifies that a part is not yet available.
