Chapter 2: Configuring Replication Server for RepConnector

You or your system administrator must establish the RepConnector connection in Replication Server before you can configure RepConnector.

This chapter assumes that you have already configured a Replication Server environment, have added the primary database to the replication system (including updating the interfaces file that contains the connection information for the database server), and have marked the primary tables and procedures for replication. If you have not completed these tasks, see the Replication Server Configuration Guide before you proceed.

To configure Replication Server to replicate to RepConnector:

  1. In the Replication Server interfaces file, add an entry for RepConnector.

  2. Verify that Replication Server is running.

  3. In Replication Server:

    • Create a database connection to communicate with RepConnector.

    • Create a replication definition to identify the data to be replicated.

    • Create a subscription to identify the location to which the data will be replicated.

  4. Resume the database connection.

As you work through this chapter, use the worksheet in Appendix A, “Configuration Worksheets,” to record the values used to configure the RepConnector connection to Replication Server.
