Configuring a Standard Warm Standby Environment

Use the Configure Replication wizard to set up a simple warm standby environment.

Prerequisites
If the active server you want to configure does not appear in the list, click Add Server to start the Add Server wizard. Follow the procedure to create a replication environment object.
Task
  1. After selecting the type of environment to create from the Configure Replication wizard, click Next.
  2. Select the active server and active database.
  3. Select the Replication Server that will manage the database connections.
  4. Select the standby server and standby database.
  5. Enter the name of the logical connection.

    When using an existing connection to create a warm standby logical connection, you must use the existing data server and database names of the active database for the logical connection name. See the Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 2 for more information.

  6. Enter the user name and password of the maintenance user. If the maintenance user does not exist, the wizard creates one for you. Accept the defaults, or enter your own values.
  7. Select the user name and password that the RepAgent will use to connect to the Replication Server. If the RepAgent user does not exist, the wizard creates one for you. Accept the defaults, or enter your own values.
  8. Select the materialization method.
  9. Review the summary information about the replication environment.
  10. If everything looks correct, click Finish. Otherwise, click Back to return to an earlier window and change the replication environment information. Then, return to the final wizard window and click Finish.
