Note: This feature requires Spotlight on SQL Server Enterprise. Spotlight on SQL Server Replication is available for SQL Server 2005 and later.
The Spotlight on SQL Server Replication home page provides a quick and intuitive view of the activity of your replication environment.
Icons represent the components of the system. Related components are grouped together in panels. Panels may be connected by dataflows that illustrate the rate at which the system is performing. Spotlight updates the statistics and flows in real time.
To see the Spotlight Home Page

To see a description of each item on the home page, hover the mouse over a statistic until the description is displayed.
Note: If the Spotlight Diagnostic Server is unable to collect the data required for the home page or drilldowns, Spotlight displays a small icon on the affected component, chart or grid. Click the icon to see more information about the problem.
