The cellular metabolic process whereby new strands of DNA are synthesized. The template for replication can either be an existing DNA molecule or RNA. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the addition of telomeric repeats by telomerase. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the addition of telomeric repeats by telomerase. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the addition of telomeric repeats by telomerase. Any process that contributes to the maintenance of proper telomeric length and structure by affecting and monitoring the activity of telomeric proteins and the length of telomeric DNA. These processes includes those that shorten and lengthen the telomeric DNA sequences. Any process that contributes to the maintenance of proper telomeric length and structure by affecting and monitoring the activity of telomeric proteins and lengthening the telomeric DNA. The maintenance of proper telomeric length by the addition of telomeric repeats by telomerase. The process whereby new strands of DNA are synthesized, using RNA as a template for RNA-dependent DNA polymerases (e.g. reverse transcriptase) that synthesize the new strands.
