Configuring Replication Agent

To set or change a Replication Agent configuration parameter, use the ra_config command.

Because the Replication Agent overwrites its entire configuration file whenever ra_config or ra_set_login is invoked, Sybase recommends that you do not edit the configuration file. Also, Replication Agent reads the configuration file only at start-up. You must use the ra_config command if you want a new configuration parameter value to take effect before the Replication Agent is shut down and restarted.

NoteSome configuration parameter changes are recorded in the configuration file when you invoke ra_config, but do not take effect until the Replication Agent is shut down and restarted.
