Configuring RMS for Three-Tier Management Support

Configure RMS to support a three-tier environment.

1. Navigate to the $SYBASE directory and source SYBASE.csh.
   
2. Go to the $SYBASE/$SYBASE_OCS/bin directory and select dsedit to add the following entry to the interfaces file.
   
   • Server Name – RMServices.
   • Port – 32008.
   • Hostname – host name of the machine on which RMS will run.
3. To start RMS, go to the $SYBASE/SCC-3_2/bin directory and run scc.sh.
   
4. To configure the RMS server, start an isql session by entering:

   isql -Usa -Psa_pwd -SRMServices

5. To change the RMS password, enter:

   configure password=newPassword
   go

6. Set the parameter sybasehome to the directory where the interfaces file resides and where /software/Sybase is the directory in which the Sybase interfaces file resides:
   

   configure sybasehome=/software/Sybase

   The interfaces file contains the connection specifications for the servers added to an RMS domain.
7. You can now start using the RMS API commands to monitor a replication environment. For example:

   add replication server SAMPLE_RS set username to sa
