This section lists the basic steps in setting up a replication system. This process requires planning and careful attention to the replication needs of your organization. If you are new to Replication Server, refer first to the Replication Server Design Guide for information that can help you plan your replication system.
You can perform some of these steps in rs_init, Replication Server configuration utility, which allows you to configure Replication Servers and add databases to your system. You can use Sybase Central to perform most of the tasks listed here, including adding databases, creating replication definitions, and creating subscriptions.
Install your Sybase software according to the Replication Server installation guide for your platform.
After you install Replication Server, use the rs_init utility program to start and configure the replication system and to add databases.
Refer to the Replication Server Configuration Guide for more information about rs_init.
