Enabling Failover Support for an RSSD Connection

Edit the configuration file to enable Failover support for an RSSD connection after you have installed the Replication Server.

You can also use rs_init to enable Failover support when you install a new Replication Server. See Replication Server Configuration Guide > Configure Replication Server and Add Databases Using rs_init.

  1. Use a text editor to open the Replication Server configuration file.

    The default file name is the Replication Server name with a “.cfg” extension. The configuration file contains one line per entry.

  2. Find the line RSSD_ha_failover=no and change it to RSSD_ha_failover=yes.

    You can disable Failover support for an RSSD connection by setting RSSD_ha_failover=no

    These changes take effect immediately; that is, you do not have to restart Replication Server to enable Failover support.
