Toolset for Implementing a Reference Replication Environment

Replication Server 15.5 includes a toolset for quickly setting up a reference implementation of Adaptive Server to Adaptive Server and Oracle to Oracle replication using the products available in your environment. A reference replication environment lets you collect statistics to identify performance issues, and demonstrates Replication Server features and functionalities.

Use the toolset to:

  1. Build Replication Server and the primary and replicate databases.

  2. Configure the replication environment.

  3. Perform simple transactions on the primary database and replicate the changes by database-level replication.

  4. Collect statistics and monitors counters from the replication processing in step 3.

  5. Clean up the reference replication environment.

See Appendix D, “Implementing a Reference Replication Environment” in the Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 2 to build, configure, and use a reference replication environment.

Note: The reference implementation builds a replication environment containing a single Replication Server, primary database server, and replicate database server. You cannot configure the reference environment topology for multiple replication system components.

Platform Support

Reference implementation is available for all platforms that Replication Server 15.5 supports. However, to set up the reference environment on any Microsoft Windows platform that Replication Server supports, you must use Cygwin to run the reference implementation scripts. See the http://www.cygwin.com/.
