Configuring Replication Server for replication to the target data server

StepsCreating a Replication Server connection to replicate

  1. Navigate to the $SYBASE/RAX-15_2/scripts/ibmudb (UNIX or Linux) or %SYBASE%\REP-15_2\scripts\ibmudb directory.

  2. Make a copy of the udb_create_rs152_standby_connection.sql script named my_udb_create_rs152_standby_connection.sql.

  3. Before executing the my_udb_create_rs152_standby_connection.sql script against your Replication Server, change the name of the connection that Replication Server uses to connect to the DirectConnect service, where:

    For example:

    create connection to DCService.my_udb_db
    
    using profile rs_udb_to_udb;standard
    
    set username maintuser
    
    set password “password”
    
    go
    

    NoteIn the above example, password is a Replication Server reserved word and, therefore, must be enclosed in double quotes.

  4. Create the connection to the replicate database:

    isql –Usa –P –SSAMPLE_RS -i my_udb_create_rs152_standby_connection.sql
    
  5. Log in to SAMPLE_RS and verify the Replication Server connection to the replicate database:

    isql –Usa –P –SSAMPLE_RS
    
    admin who
    
    go
    

    You should see a message returned for the DSI connection {rds}.{rdb}. Verify that the status is “Awaiting Message” or “Awaiting Command.”

  6. Exit the isql session with the quit command.
