Change Replication Server Parameters

You can modify configuration parameters that affect the current Replication Server by using configure replication server at the Replication Server.

To change default configuration parameter values using configure replication server, log in to Replication Server and execute configure replication server at the isql prompt.

Use this syntax where config_param is a character string that corresponds to the configuration parameter name and value is a character string representing the setting you want for the parameter:

configure replication server
		set config_param to 'value'

The config_param string must match an entire parameter name. You may have to restart Replication Server for the new parameters to take effect.

Example 1

For example, to change the maximum number of messages allowed in the Open Server message queue to 5, log in to the source Replication Server and:

Execute the configure replication server command:

configure replication server set num_msgs to '5'

Restart the Replication Server.

Example 2

This example uses configure Replication Server to change the ha_failover parameter to enable Failover support for all non-RSSD connections from a Replication Server to Adaptive Servers.

Execute configure replication server. Log in to the Replication Server for which you want to enable Failover support and enter:
```
configure replication server
set ha_failover to 'on'
```
See Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 2 > Replication System Recovery > Configuring the Replication System to Support Sybase Failover.
Restart the Replication Server.

Configuration changes take effect after you restart Replication Server.

See Replication Server Reference Manual > Replication Server Commands > configure replication server.
