With Replication Server 15.0, you can upgrade routes using the Replication Manager. In earlier versions, the RSM Server provided the route upgrade capability.
The Replication Manager displays a set of all routes in the Replication Server that are eligible to be upgraded. You can select one single route at a time for upgrade. Upon selection of a route, the Replication Manager runs the upgrade process in the background and reports any errors or warnings in the event log.The new route upgrade implementation provides the following additional functionalities:
Canceling a route upgrade process – the ability to cancel a route upgrade process. However, canceling can leave the replicate Replication Server in an unstable state.
Recovering from an unsuccessful upgrade – a recovery procedure to reset the replicate RSSD. An unsuccessful upgrade can result from either an abnormal termination of the upgrade process or a cancellation of the upgrade process.
Upgrading a route using Replication Manager
In the object tree, select a Replication Server object.
Right-click the Replication Server object and select Upgrade Route. A dialog box lists all the routes that can be upgraded.
From the list, select a route and click the Upgrade button.
A background process starts, which on completion indicates whether the upgrade is successful or not.
The route upgrade implementation has these limitations:
You cannot currently upgrade multiple routes at the same time.
Route upgrade is supported only in an environment domain using the two-tier solution.
