# DistributeReplaceData

Set `DistributeReplaceData` to `False` if you want to send DREREPLACE data to all child servers, without parsing in the DIH.

By default, DIH parses the data and distributes it according to your distribution mode if you are using DistributeByReference, DistributeByDate or RoundRobinMode. This parameter is not used by any of the other distribution modes, which always distribute DREREPLACE to all children without parsing.

You might want to set this parameter to `False` in the following situations:

- In DistributeByReference mode, when you send the DREREPLACE index action with the Field parameter specifying a reference field that is not configured for distribution in DIH.

- In DistributeByDate or RoundRobinMode, when you do not intend to specify the `#DREDATE` field in replace data.
