- Open the DMM representing the state of your replication environment that you want to use as a baseline.
- Select and select Archived DMM in the Save as type list.
- Specify a name for your archived DMM and click Save.
You will be prompted to save the associated PDMs as archives.
- Click Yes to archive the PDMs referenced in the DMM.
If any of the PDMs has not previously been saved, you will be prompted to specify a name for its archive.
Your replication environment is saved as an archive, which can be used as a baseline against which to generate an alter replication definition statement.
