GetSupportedMaximum
uint32 ReplicationServiceCapabilities.GetSupportedMaximum(
[IN] uint16 ReplicationType,
[IN] uint16 Component,
[OUT] uint64 MaxValue );
This method accepts a ReplicationType and a component, it then returns a static numeric value
representing the maximum number of the specified component that the service supports. A value
of 0 indicates unlimited components of the given type. In all cases the maximum value is bounded
by the availability of resources on the computer system. If the information is not known, the method
returns 7, which indicates, Information is not available.
If ReplicationType parameter contains an unsupported value, an error of Not Supported (2) shall
be returned.
The following table shows the list of components that can be specified:

GetDefaultConsistency
uint32 ReplicationServiceCapabilities.GetDefaultConsistency(
[IN] uint16 ReplicationType,
[OUT] uint16 DefaultConsistency );
This method for a given ReplicationType, returns the default consistency value for the replication
groups.
We will always return Sequentially Consistent (2) in DefaultConsistency parameter for all supported
ReplicationTypes.
