Replication Agent 15.5 introduces the following new states:
Replication Down – indicates when a Replication Agent instance unexpectedly exits replication due to an unrecoverable error like a network failure, communication error, or any other fatal replication error. If the replication error is addressed successfully, for example, more disk space is provided in case of an out of disk space error and replication is successfully resumed, the status changes back to replicating once the resume command is issued.
Replicating (Resynchronization) – indicates when a Replication Agent instance has been restarted and is resynchronizing the primary and replicate databases. When Replication Agent has completed resynchronizing the primary and replicate databases, it returns to the Replicating state.
See Chapter 3, “Administering Replication Agent” in the Replication Agent 15.5 Administration Guide
To support this feature, some of the existing properties and commands that could be earlier used only in the Admin state have been enhanced and can now also be used in the Replication Down state. See Replication Agent 15.5 Reference Manual.
