The RMS is a middle tier monitoring layer that monitors the status of the servers and components in the replication environment. It also provides information to troubleshoot problems and the commands to fix these problems.
The RMS is implemented using the Sybase Unified Agent Framework (UAF). The UAF provides flexible and extensible service-oriented approach to manage distributed resources. It provides common services and interfaces for development and deployment of agent plug-ins like RMS.
Both the RMS and the UAF write errors, warnings, and informational messages to log files. Review the following log files when you are troubleshooting issues in the RMS:
UAF log file: $SYBASE/ua/log/agent.log
RMS log file: $SYBASE/ua/plugins/com.sybase.rms/logs/rms.log
For more information on RMS, see the Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 1.
