Replication Manager Issues

CR#

Description
639623 Cannot Start Adaptive Server Interactive SQL from Sybase Central.

If you install Replication Manager into the same directory as Adaptive Server 15.5 ESD #2, the Interactive SQL cannot start from Sybase Central, and issues:

Interactive SQL could not load the "SQL Anywhare plugin", its "saip11.jar" file has been removed
or has been deleted. You will not be able to connect to the databases handled by that plugin.
Workaround:
  • Before installing Replication Manager, rename shared/sybcentral600/scjview.sh to shared/sybcentral600/scjview.sh.save.
  • After installing Replication Manager, rename shared/sybcentral600/scjview.sh.save back to shared/sybcentral600/scjview.sh.
619049 Simultaneously switching multiple warm standby pairs causes Replication Manager plug-in to fail.

In a Replication Manager plug-in environment that contains multiple warm standby pairs, if you select multiple logical connections and choose switch active, all warm standby pairs attempt to switch simultaneously. You see: 

“Internal Error - Sybase Central”
Workaround: Switch each warm standby pair individually. Wait until the switch active operation is complete on the first pair before you issue switch active on the next pair.
616057 The Replication Manager plug-in does not support configuration of the new block_size parameter. Configuring the parameter generates: 

“Option WITH SHUTDOWN required for block size change”
Workaround: None.
611031 Java does not support the roman8 character set; therefore, you cannot select this character set in Replication Manager.

Workaround: When adding a server to an environment:

  • Enter a user name and password that will let you access the environment.
  • Do not select roman8 in the Character Set field for a server connection.
  • Do not select “default” in the Character Set field for a server connection if the server default is roman8.

    Select another character set such as iso_1, utf8, or cp850, that is compatible with the server and Replication Manager.
606691 In a three-tier replication environment, the Replication Manager plug-in does not display the newer Replication Server parameters.

Workaround:

  • Add the replication environment in a normal two-tier Replication Manager environment.
  • Add the servers for which you want to access the configuration parameters in this new environment.
