The Replication Manager (RM) plug-in has been modified to support the dynamic configuration feature of Replication Server 15.0.1. Versions of Replication Server earlier than 15.0.1 do not support dynamic configuration.
This feature allows the RM to dynamically retrieve all parameters that can be configured for the Replication Server, including the parameters for connections and routes.
To support dynamic configuration, the Parameters tab of the Properties dialog box in RM has been enhanced to accurately display the parameter status information returned by the Replication Server. It includes:
The Status field replaces the Restart Required field in RM 15.0. Its associated text field now has a wider range of information. The remaining fields and functions of the properties dialog box remain the same.
The parameter information in the Run Value column may now contain the value “<server default>”. This may be used for parameters in the connections, logical connections, and routes to indicate that a parameter at that component level has not been set, and the Replication Server default value will be used. These types of parameters can have a default setting at the server level, or can have the parameter set for an individual connection, logical connection, or route.
There may be some parameters for which the legal values are considered nonstandard so the Legal values field may be left blank. This is usually due to a parameter that may contain a textual setting and a numerical setting. In these cases, the Explanation field may contain further information regarding legal values for the parameter.
