When you set up a replication system, consider the following:
Security, including user login names and passwords, permissions required for executing commands, and third-party security systems. See Chapter 8, “Managing Replication Server Security”.
Concurrency control; specifically, protecting your replication system from conflicts that may result from data being modified by one client when it is also being used by another. See “Transaction Management” in Chapter 1 of the Replication Server Design Guide.
CPU, memory, disk, and network resources. See Appendix A, “Capacity Planning,” in the Replication Server Design Guide.
Consider your replicated data model and routing scheme. See Chapter 1, “Introduction” and Chapter 6, “Managing Routes”.
Requirements for using heterogeneous data servers as data sources or data destinations. Refer to “Heterogeneous Data Server Support” in Chapter 1, “Introduction,” in the Replication Server Design Guide.
Compatibility between Adaptive Servers and Replication Servers of different versions. See “Restrictions on data replication”.
For information about Sybase compatibility issues, see the release bulletin for your platform.
