You can hide (or filter out) the connection status if you do not want to see the it either on the individual connection icon or as part of the rollup status for Replication Server.
The options for hiding connection status are as follows:
Hide the State of the Replication Agent –– hides the state of the Replication Agent thread in the Details list, on the Connection Properties dialog box, and in the rollup status for the Replication Server to which that Replication Agent thread is connected.
Hide the State of the DSI Thread –– hides the state of the DSI thread in the Details list, on the Connection Properties dialog box, and in the rollup status for the Replication Server to which the DSI thread is associated.
Right-click the connection for which to hide the status.
Select Hide Connection Status from the drop-down menu.
A dialog box displays which shows options for hiding the connection status.
Select an option.
The state for the connection now reads “Hidden.” The state on the Connection Properties dialog box and in the rollup status for the Replication Server is also hidden. The Event Log records this change.
The filtering state of a connection status is stored locally by the Replication Manager, therefore, different instances of Replication Manager do not share filtering states. For example, if you create a connection using one instance of Replication Manager, and then set the Replication Status to hide for that connection, another Sybase Central plug-in instance monitoring the same environment does not filter the connection status; filtering information is available only to the original Replication Manager instance.
In addition, any connection created outside of Sybase Central (by rs_init or from the command line) is not filtered automatically by the Replication Manager. You must set the filtering manually from within Sybase Central.
If you are creating a warm standby environment, the Replication Manager automatically sets the filtering state for the active Data Server Interface (DSI) thread and standby RepAgent thread connections. You must set filtering for the physical connection manually by selecting one of the connection status hide options from the context menu.
