Verifying the Installation

Verify that Replication Agent has been successfully installed.

  1. In a command window, change to the directory where you installed Replication Agent.
  2. Set the environment variables by sourcing the SYBASE.csh file (UNIX or Linux) or by executing the SYBASE.bat file (Windows).
  3. Change to $SYBASE/RAX-15_5/bin (UNIX or Linux) or %SYBASE%\RAX-15_5\bin (Windows).
  4. Obtain the Replication Agent version string:
    • For Windows:
      ra.bat -v
    • For UNIX or Linux:
      ./ra.sh -v
      Note: Make sure permission for the ra.sh file is set no broader than 700 (read/write/execute for user, no permissions for group and other).
    If Replication Agent installs successfully, you see the SAP copyright and the Replication Agent version string.
