Setting Up the Replication Environment

Use the RMA to set up the replication environment, configuring each host to support replication.

• RMA Security
  The RMA does not store its own security credentials, but enforces authentication by pass-through authentication to the primary or replicate SAP Replication Server.
• RMA Error Handling
  There are some situations under which a command may fail because of conditions in the environment.
• Setting the Server Session Credentials
  Set the login ID and password to access the RMA server for all activities.
• Deploying a Replication Model
  To deploy a replication model, provide property values for each replication component. RMA verifies the database configuration and provides the ability to generate scripts to correct the database configuration, if necessary.
• Undeploying a Replication Model
  Remove current replication model. This shuts down the SAP Replication Server and Replication Agent, but not the primary and replicate databases.
• Listing Tables in the Replication Environment
  View the list of tables in the replication environment.
• Configuring Tables for Replication
  Specify the tables that you want to replicate and materialize.
• Configuring DDL Replication
  Configure DDL replication in the replication environment. Enabling DDL replication allows you to replicate simple table DDL changes in the primary database.
