RepAgent Problems

RepAgent errors can be caused by problems with the Adaptive Server, Replication Server, or RepAgent. RepAgent records messages in the Adaptive Server error log. These messages identify the server that caused the error so you can diagnose and correct the problem.

RepAgent retrieves the data for primary objects from the Adaptive Server log and converts the log record information into Log Transfer Language (LTL) commands. These commands are sent to the primary Replication Server for distribution and replication. RepAgent also coordinates database log truncation with the Adaptive Server and primary Replication Server.

For more information about how the RepAgent processes errors, see the Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 1.

• Problems when Starting the RepAgent
  These errors may occur when RepAgent starts up.
• Errors from the Replication Server
  Different types of problems can originate from the Replication Server.
• Errors from the Adaptive Server
  Errors from the Adaptive Server can be a result of an invalid truncation page or of running out of Adaptive Server alarm resources. The RepAgent does not use the Adaptive Server log scan thread, and will not encounter any errors related to it.
