Replication Agent for UDB

As a primary data server, DB2 UDB interacts with Replication Agent. An instance of the Replication Agent configured for the DB2 UDB is referred to as a Replication Agent for UDB.

The Replication Agent for UDB identifies and transfers information about data-changing operations or transactions from a DB2 UDB primary data server to a primary Replication Server.

Note: A separate Replication Agent for UDB instance is required for each database from which transactions are replicated.

The Replication Agent interacts with the primary Replication Server and with the RSSD of the primary Replication Server, if so configured.

Note: Replication Agent is a Java program. Some operating systems may require patches to support Java. See the Replication Agent Administration Guide and the Replication Agent Release Bulletin.
