Sending the dump database marker to Replication Server

RepAgent automatically generates and sends a dump database marker to Replication Server when you obtain a dump of the primary database. When the DSI is in resync mode after you resume DSI using skip to resync marker, and you issue an execute rs_marker ‘resync database’ command from Adaptive Server, the dump database marker received after the resync database marker suspends the DSI and removes any existing resynchronization state for that DSI connection.Multiple replicate databases for the same primary database all receive the same dump database marker. See “dump subcommand,” in Appendix B “Log Tranfer Language” in the Replication Server Design Guide.

You can manually resume DSI after you apply the dump to the replicate database. DSI no longer rejects committed transactions and all transactions that commit after the dump point, which is indicated by the dump database marker, are replicated.
