Creating an instance

You must set the SYBASE environment before you invoke the Replication Agent administrator utility. See “Preparing to use the utilities”.

StepsCreating a Replication Agent instance using Administrator

  1. Select an instance type from the drop-down list:

    • oracle – Oracle

    • ibmudb – IBM DB2 Universal Database

    • mssql – Microsoft SQL Server

  2. Enter an instance name.

    The instance name must be unique; otherwise, Administrator returns an error.

    The default instance name is repagent.

  3. Enter a client socket port number that is not assigned to any other application on the machine for the administration port of the new Replication Agent instance. For Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server, be sure that a second port, port_num+1, is available for the RASD.

    The default client socket port number is 10000.

  4. Click Create.

    The instance name you specified appears in the List of Instances. The status under Running is no.

  5. Click Done to exit the Administrator GUI window.
