Replication Agent

Replication Agent extends the capabilities of Replication Server by supporting non-ASE data servers as primary data servers in a Sybase replication system.

The Replication Agent detects any changes to primary data and using Log Transfer Language (LTL), a subset of Replication Control Language (RCL), sends primary data changes to the primary Replication Server.

• How Replication Agent Works
  A Replication Agent is a Replication Server client that retrieves information from a primary database transaction log and formats it for the primary Replication Server.
• DDL User Processing
  If DDL replication is available, this user is defined at the primary database.
• Non-ASE Replication Agents
  Sybase offers non-ASE Replication Agents such as Replication Agent for DB2 UDB and Replication Agent.
