When you alter a direct route, change its topology, or perform some other maintenance to a remote site, you must suspend the route so that messages are no longer sent to the destination Replication Server. After maintenance is completed for the route, you can then reactivate the route to resume activity.
You can suspend and resume routes in Sybase Central or with the RCL commands suspend route and resume route.
The suspend route and resume route RCL commands are described in this section.
