The configuration file is a flat ASCII file that contains configuration information for a single Sybase Replication Agent instance.
The first two lines in the configuration file identify the file as a Replication Agent configuration file and record the time that the file was last modified. For example:
#RA Property File #Wed Mar 16 07:33:18 MST 2005
Each configuration parameter name appears on a separate line, followed by the equal symbol (=) and the current value of the parameter. For example:
compress_ltl_syntax=true
If the Sybase Replication Agent instance is not running, you can view the configuration file to examine the current Sybase Replication Agent configuration.
Sybase recommends that you do not edit
the configuration file, because Sybase Replication Agent overwrites the entire
configuration file every time the ra_config or ra_set_login command
is invoked to change a parameter value.
If the Replication Agent instance is running, use the ra_config command to view the current Replication Agent configuration.
