Installation and Uninstallation of Replication Manager

There are several different methods available for setting up and uninstalling Replication Manager; however, Sybase recommends that you use GUI mode.

Replication Manager is a utility for creating, managing, and monitoring replication environments, and is available as a plug-in to Sybase Central™, Java Edition. Replication Manager communicates directly with Replication Server and Adaptive Server Enterprise servers.

Depending on the scale and complexity of your replication environment, you can set up either a two-tier or a three-tier solution. In a two-tier management solution, Replication Manager connects directly to the servers without communicating through the management layer.

In a three-tier management solution, Replication Manager monitors large and complex replication environments with the help of Replication Monitoring Services (RMS). Replication Manager connects to the servers through RMS.

Replication Manager:

Uses a graphical user interface.
Allows you to manage, monitor, and troubleshoot replication system components, such as connections, routes, replication definitions, subscriptions, and so forth.
Runs on Microsoft Windows operating systems as well as all UNIX operating systems that Replication Server supports.
Runs within the same Sybase Central framework as the Adaptive Server plug-in.
Manages a warm standby environment.
Supports multisite availability (MSA).
Supports an ERSSD.
Provides for logging and tracing of server commands.
Provides two-tier and three-tier management solutions by supporting RMS.
