Run Replication Agent and the primary
data server on different machines.
- Install the sybfilter driver on the same
machine as the primary Microsoft SQL Server, and use this driver
to make the transaction logs readable for Replication Agent.
- On the machine on which the primary Microsoft
SQL Server is running, share the drive or drives containing the
transaction log files so that the drives can be mounted on the machine
on which Replication Agent is to be installed.
- Install Replication Agent on a machine of the same hardware and
operating system as the machine on which the primary data server is
running.
- Install the JDBC driver on the same machine as Replication Agent.
- On the Replication Agent machine, map network
drives that contain the primary Microsoft SQL Server database transaction
log files. Use the ra_devicepath command
to point Replication Agent to the log files.
