Change SAP Replication Server Parameters

You can modify configuration parameters that affect the current SAP Replication Server by using configure replication server at the SAP Replication Server.

To change default configuration parameter values using configure replication server, log in to SAP Replication Server and execute configure replication server at the isql prompt.

Use this syntax where config_param is a character string that corresponds to the configuration parameter name and value is a character string representing the setting you want for the parameter:

configure replication server
		set config_param to 'value'

The config_param string must match an entire parameter name. You may have to restart SAP Replication Server for the new parameters to take effect.

Example 1

For example, to change the maximum number of messages allowed in the SAP Open Server message queue to 5, log in to the source SAP Replication Server and:

Execute the configure replication server command:
```
configure replication server set num_msgs to '5'
```
Restart the SAP Replication Server.

Example 2

This example uses configure replication server to change the ha_failover parameter to enable Failover support for all non-RSSD connections from an SAP Replication Server to SAP ASEs.

Execute configure replication server. Log in to the SAP Replication Server for which you want to enable Failover support and enter:
```
configure replication server
set ha_failover to 'on'
```
See Configure the Replication System to Support SAP Failover in the Administration Guide Volume 2.
Restart the SAP Replication Server.

Configuration changes take effect after you restart Replication Server.

See configure replication server in the Reference Manual .
