Stops all current replication processing and puts the Sybase Replication Agent instance into Admin state.
suspend
When suspend is invoked, it stops all current replication processing in the Sybase Replication Agent instance.
The Log Reader component stops scanning the transaction log immediately, and the Log Transfer Interface component stops sending LTL to the Replication Server immediately.
Any data in the Sybase Replication Agent internal queues (input and output queues of the Log Reader and Log Transfer Interface components) is flushed without further processing.
The Sybase Replication Agent instance immediately releases all of its connections to the primary database, and drops its connection to the primary Replication Server (and RSSD, if connected).
The Sybase Replication Agent instance goes from Replicating state to Admin state.
The action of the quiesce command
is similar to that of the suspend command, except
that quiesce allows pending transactions in the Sybase Replication Agent internal
queues to be processed first, before putting the Sybase Replication Agent instance
in Admin state.
If the Sybase Replication Agent instance is in Admin state, the suspend command returns an error.
The suspend command is valid only when the Sybase Replication Agent instance is in Replicating state.
