# Manage data replication
<a name="server-replication-main"></a>

You can manage data replication for the source server through these actions on the **Replication** drop-down menu:
+ **Start data replication** – Restarts data replication for a source server on which data replication has been stopped. If you are using agent-based replication you don't necessarily have to reinstall the agent. 
+ **Stop data replication** – Stops data replication for a source server. Stopping the replication stops billing, deletes existing snapshots and storage volumes (Amazon EBS volumes or FSx for ONTAP volumes), and terminates replication servers. Configuration is retained, and if you are using agent-based replication the agent is not uninstalled. 
+ **Pause data replication** – Pauses data replication for a source server. Pausing the replication does not stop billing or delete existing snapshots or storage volumes. Replication servers are not terminated and if you are using agent-based replication the agent is not uninstalled from the source server. 
+ **Resume data replication** – Resume data replication for a paused source server. This syncs any changes since the last synchronization and completes the data replication flow. 

Choose **Edit** in the **Replication settings **section to access the ** Edit Replication Settings** page, where you can edit the settings for the selected source server. [Learn more about editing replication settings.](replication-settings-template.md)
