There are several requirements for the installation and implementation
of non-SAP ASE support features.
Replication Server support for replication into a non-SAP ASE replicate
database requires:
- Replication Server system tables—rs_lastcommit and rs_info— created
in the non-SAP ASE database, and Replication Server support functions such as
rs_get_lastcommit and rs_get_charset.
- Function strings that:
- Replace certain language command and stored procedure
invocations from the replicate Replication Server, then,
- Produce operations in the replicate database that
emulate the behavior of the commands and stored procedures that would
exist in a SAP ASE replicate database.
- Heterogeneous datatype support for non-SAP ASE datatypes that do
not map directly to Replication Server datatypes (or SAP ASE datatypes), which
must be translated to the appropriate datatypes for replication into the
replicate database.
