replicate kvstore with non-cluster sh

[blanky]

i want to replicate search1's kvstore to search2.

that two cluster is non-clustering and standalone.

And i found option in server.conf [kvstore] stanza replication_host.

Does this option only operated in clustering environment?

Yes, the replication_host setting only applies to search head clusters.  That is what the second sentence in the description is trying to say.

Have you tried KVStore backup/restore?  It will transfer data from one SH to another, but is not suitable for keeping the two in sync - that is what replication is for.
