Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for ordered list management in a replication environment. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for ordered list management in a replication environment includes selecting an item for positioning in a replicant of an ordered list by an ordered list manager executing in memory by at least one processor of a computer. The method also includes determining an intent of positioning for the selected item and associating the determined intent in an order number with the selected item in the replicant of the ordered list. Finally, the method includes replicating the replicant with the ordered list by synchronizing changes in the replicant with other changes applied to other replicants of the ordered list.
