Before you synchronize remote databases with the consolidated database, you must start the MobiLink synchronization server. You can start the server from the Database or the Database Profile painter in PowerBuilder.
To start the MobiLink synchronization server:
From the Objects view of the Database painter or from the Database Profile painter, expand the ODBC Utilities folder and click MobiLink Synchronization server.
The MobiLink Synchronization Server Options dialog box displays.
Select the MobiLink version and enter the ODBC connection string for your consolidated database.
The values that populate the MobiLink version drop-down list come from the SQL Anywhere versions listed in the hkey_local_machine\software\odbc\odbcinst.ini registry key.
The ODBC connection string should not contain any blank spaces that are not part of the data source name. The following is an example of an ODBC connection string for the SQL Anywhere demonstration database:
DSN=SQL Anywhere 11 Demo;UID=dba;PWD=sql
Define other options as needed.
For information about filling in specific fields in the dialog box, click the Help button in the dialog box. The Usage button opens a dialog box with information about command line options.
Click OK.
When you click OK, PowerBuilder starts the MobiLink Synchronization server.
