Database Servers

Replication Agent supports only certain database servers on Linux, Microsoft Windows, and UNIX platforms.

The supported database servers are:

Oracle
Microsoft SQL Server database with Replication Agent running only on Microsoft Windows
IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) for Linux, UNIX, and Windows

Note:

The database server versions that are required and supported by Replication Agent are listed in the Replication Agent 15.6 Release Bulletin.

Be aware of the following Replication Agent requirements for these data servers:

Replication Agent for Oracle must be installed on the same type of UNIX or Microsoft Windows host as the primary Oracle data server and from which it can directly access the primary Oracle redo and archive logs.
Replication Agent for Microsoft SQL Server must be installed on a Microsoft Windows host from which it can directly access the primary Microsoft SQL Server transaction logs.
Replication Agent for IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) must be installed on the same UNIX or Microsoft Windows host as the UDB server or the UDB Administration Client.

In your Sybase Replication Agent system environment, verify that the:

Primary data server and primary database are online and configured properly for your production systems. See the documentation provided by your database software vendor.
Replication Server is installed, configured, and running. See the Replication Server installation and configuration guides for your platform.
