Each Replication Agent instance has only one administrator login.
The default administrator login (sa
,
with no password) is created when the Replication Agent instance is created.
Sybase recommends that you create a new administrator login and password to replace the default “sa” login and secure access to the administration port immediately after you create a Replication Agent instance. See “Creating the Replication Agent administrator login” for more information.
You can use ra_set_login to create (or change) the administrator login for a Replication Agent instance.
To create or change the Replication Agent administrator login
Log in to the Replication Agent instance with the administrator login.
When you log in to the Replication Agent instance for the first time, use the default administrator login.
After you log in, enter the following command:
ra_set_login admin_user,admin_pw
where:
admin_user is the new administrator login name you want to use for this Replication Agent instance.
admin_pw is the password for the new administrator login.
Use the values from items 1e and 1f on the “Installation and Setup Worksheet” in the Sybase Replication Agent Installation Guide to specify the Replication Agent administrator login name and password.
The new login name replaces the current administrator login. The next time you log in to the Replication Agent instance, you must use the new administrator login name and password.
