Creating Alternate Logical Connections in a Warm Standby Environment

Use create alternate logical connection to create alternate logical connections for an existing default logical connection in a warm standby environment.

You can use different Replication Servers to control the default logical connection and the alternate logical connection. Both the active and standby databases must support having multiple Replication Agents. When you switch the active and standby databases, execute the switch active command for every logical connection—alternate and default. The warm standy process is complete when you switch all the paths.

At the Replication Server that manages the warm standby pair, enter:
create alternate logical connection to LDS.ldb
named conn_lds.conn_ldb
where:
  • LDS and ldb – the logical data server and database names
  • conn_lds.conn_ldb – the data server and database connection components of the alternate logical connection name.
