Does continuous replication restart after a reboot?

[Matthew Woodward <ma...@mattwoodward.com>]

On Apache CouchDB 1.4 -- on the status screen in Futon I saw all the
continuous replication processes listed, then after a reboot if I go to the
status screen I don't see anything, and the document counts on the
databases are off on the server that's supposed to be pulling from another
server.

Is there some configuration setting I'm missing or is something else going
on?

Thanks.

Thanks -- been on BigCouch for a while and moving back to CouchDB after
being away for a while, so appreciate the refresher!

Are they persistent replications?
- Replications created by POST to /_replicate are not persistent (even if they’re continuous.)
- Replications created by creating a doc in the _replicator database are persistent.

To get a replication that restarts automatically after relaunch, you need to make it both persistent and continuous.
