Replication Manager can manage replication environments by connecting directly to servers in the environment without communicating through a management server layer. This two-tier management solution lets you manage small, simple replication environments with fewer than ten servers.
To set up a replication environment in Sybase Central, you select the servers contained in the environment from a drop-down list, which is derived from the local interfaces file, then provide a user name and password that the Replication Manager uses to connect to these servers. These passwords are encrypted when stored in the Sybase Central repository.
