Completing the Configuration

Complete the replication system configuration.

  1. If the Database Information window indicates that there are incomplete tasks on the Add Database to Replication System window, select each one and complete the required information.
    When all tasks are “Complete,” press Ctrl+A. A message is displayed asking you if you want to execute the configuration.
  2. Enter “y” to continue with the configuration.
    Messages appear on the window as the configuration progresses; these messages require no action.

    Do not interrupt the configuration. Most configurations require several minutes (sometimes longer) to complete.

    When the configuration is complete, rs_init displays “Configuration completed successfully.”

  3. Click OK to return to the Configure Replication System window.
    Note: To add other databases to the replication system, go to “Adding a database to the replication system” section, and repeat the procedure for each database.
  4. Press Ctrl+X to navigate through the screens and exit the program. rs_init displays the path to the log file for the session before you return to the command prompt.
You can find out more about the progress of the installation by looking at the current rs_init log file. rs_init log files are stored in the init/logs subdirectory of the $SYBASE_REP directory.
