Configure Replication Server and Add Databases Using rs_init

Use rs_init to configure Replication Server and to add databases to your replication system. You can use rs_init interactively or with a resource file.

• rs_init in Interactive Mode
  Using rs_init in interactive mode is easy to use and catches mistakes that might be missed when using rs_init with a resource file.
• rs_init With a Resource File
  Using rs_init with resource files to install, configure, upgrade, or downgrade may save time if you plan to install multiple Replication Servers and many of the rs_init values are similar.
• rs_init Command Line Options
  Familiarize yourself with the available rs_init command line options for a resource file. You can use some of these options in an interactive rs_init session.
• Configuring a New Replication Server
  Configure a new Replication Server in your replication environment using rs_init.
• Adding a Database to the Replication System
  Add a database to the replication system. Each primary or replicate database in a replication system is managed by a Replication Server.
