Connections

Connections go from a database to a Replication Server, or from a Replication Server to a database. Replication Servers distribute transactions received from primary databases through connections to the replicate databases they manage.

StepsCreating a connection

  2. Double-click the Add Connection icon on the Details pane. The Add Database Connection wizard opens. Click Next.

  3. Select an active server and database from the drop-down list. Click Next.

  4. Enter a user name or accept the default value.

  5. Enter a password. Then, click Next.

  6. Select from the given options. Click Next.

  7. Click Finish after checking the summary of information.

  8. If you created a replicate connection through DirectConnect to a non-Sybase data server, manually execute the script that generates the tables and procedures required for replication.
