SYMPTOMS
In a Site Server Content Deployment replication, an exclude filter can be specified so that certain directories do not get deleted on the destination server after the replication. However, if the replication is stopped and restarted due to factors such as network disconnection and reconnection, these excluded directories may be deleted on the destination server.



CAUSE
The original exclude filter string is lost when the network reconnects and the Content Deployment project restarts.
