Configuration parameters in the rs_config system table affect the Replication Server and different database objects. The method for changing a parameter also varies according to the object that the parameter affects. The different types of configuration parameters are as follows:
Local Replication Server – parameters whose effects are restricted to the current Replication Server. These parameters are listed in Table 4-2 and Table 4-2 on page 138 in the Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 2. See “Changing Replication Server parameters” for instructions about setting Replication Server parameter values with configure replication server.
Route – parameters that affect routes from the current Replication Server to other Replication Servers. See “Changing routes” for information about setting default and per-target values for route parameters.
Database connection – parameters that affect database connections originating with the Replication Server. See “Setting and changing parameters affecting physical connections” for information about setting default and per-target values for database connection parameters. See also “Parallel DSI parameters” on page 159 in the Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 2 for information about parameters for database connection parameters for parallel DSI.
Logical database connection – Replication Server parameters that apply to logical database connections for warm standby applications. See “Changing parameters affecting logical connections” on page 105 in the Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 2 for information about setting default and per-target values for logical connection parameters.
Network-based security services – parameters that affect network security. See “Managing network-based security” for information about setting security parameters.
Performance – parameters that affect the performance of a Replication Server. See “Configuration parameters that affect performance” on page 137 and “Parallel DSI parameters” on page 159 in the Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 2.
