Copying a Replication Agent Configuration

You can copy a Replication Agent configuration with ra_admin.

When you create a new Replication Agent instance, copy the configuration of an existing instance by invoking ra_admin with the -c option and -f option:
ra_admin -c new_inst -p port_num -f old_inst
where:

  • new_inst is the name of the new Replication Agent instance you are creating.

  • port_num is the client socket port number for the administration port of the new Replication Agent instance. Make sure that a second port, port_num+1, is available for the RASD.

  • old_inst is the name of an existing Replication Agent instance whose configuration you want to duplicate for the new Replication Agent instance.
