A new datatype, timestamp has been added to Replication Server 15.1. timestamp is defined as varbinary(8) with a status bit indicator that differentiates it from varbinary. The timestamp datatype allows the replication of timestamp columns to replicate, standby, and MSA databases. You can also define timestamp as a primary key in a replication definition, and as a searchable column in a replication definition and a function replication definition.
The send_timestamp_to_standby configuration parameter has been added to support timestamp replication. When send_timestamp_to_standby is enabled and there are no replication definitions, timestamp columns are sent to the replicate database.
The replicate Adaptive Server must be version 15.0.2
or later to support timestamp in replication
definition.
See the Replication Server Reference Manual for more information about the timestamp datatype. See the Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 1 for information about replicating timestamp columns.
