Update

Here's what I've found.

With servers A, B & C (enough to represent my situation).

A is the hub and does all the replication. 8.0.2
B is 8.0.2
C is still 8.0.1 (not got round to updating yet).

A has no noticable problems on the DB (during user access).
There was a crash a few weeks ago. No errors reported after fixup when I brought it back up.

B needs a replica of the DB, so it's created from A. All users see 'page not currently buffered' when they write to it. Same error occurs when A tries to replicate. Turns out it's only got ~86k docs out of 220k.

C is fine, but has had a replica of the DB since the start. I'm not willing to create a new replica to test this server, as it's in use.

Workstations cannot create a new replica or copy of the DB from A, same error. Stops at roughly the same number of docs.

I create can a new replica from server C successfully. Shut B down, copy the replica over (at the OS level) and restart. Replication now fine from server A.

Shut server A down, copy good replica on.
Page not buffered problem is now fixed on all server replicas.

**still can't create a _new_ replica from A**
(tried on workstation. Can't create new copy either - page not currently buffered on either).

We also now have UNK table errors on server A & C - date fields are not searchable as such - they report as being text fields.

Next steps
- check whether I can create new replica from B.
- Build test server 8.0.1 and test with that.
- Keep talking to IBM...
