# How to replicate an event stream at a remote machine?

1. Set replication.run to true in the stream module's conf

   replication.run=true
   

2. Also mark the stream as readOnly to avoid any writes to the replicated stream

   readOnly=true
   

3. Provide the replication specific parameters

   replication.autoUpdateMinInterval=5000
   replication.autoUpdateMaxInterval=60000
   replication.autoUpdateStepInterval=2000
   replication.autoUpdateReplayMax=100
   

4. Provide the source stream's host details i.e. the stream to replicate from

   source.store.host="remote-host"
   source.store.port=27017
   source.store.dbName="lottery-event-store"
   

   Note: Ensure the eventDb's mongo port is accessible by the machine in which the remote replication is running.

5. Test the configuration by running the replication details command.
