rasd_backup_dir

The directory path for Replication Agent System Database (RASD) backup files.

Default

The path to the RASD backup directory created automatically when the Replication Agent instance was created. For example:
  • On Microsoft Windows platforms:
    %SYBASE%\RAX-15_5\inst_name\repository\backup
    where:

    • %SYBASE% is the path to the Replication Agent installation directory.

    • inst_name is the name of the Replication Agent instance.

  • On UNIX platforms:
    $SYBASE/RAX-15_5/inst_name/repository/backup
    where:

    • $SYBASE is the path to the Replication Agent installation directory.

    • inst_name is the name of the Replication Agent instance.

Value

A valid path on the Replication Agent host machine.

Comments

  • When you create a Replication Agent instance, an RASD backup directory is created automatically as part of the instance directory structure. The default value of the rasd_backup_dir parameter points to that directory.

  • If you specify any valid path as the value of the rasd_backup_dir parameter, Replication Agent places its RASD backup files in that directory during RASD backup operations, and it looks in that directory for the RASD backup files during restore operations.
