A resource file is an ASCII text file that contains configuration
information for the Replication Agent instance to be created by ra_admin.
The
ra_admin parameters in the
resource file allow you to specify these options, in addition
to creating a Replication Agent instance:
-
Create
the instance user login in the primary data server, and grant all required
permissions.
-
Start the new instance after it is created.
-
Initialize the new instance after it starts.
Note:
When you validate a resource file with ra_admin
-vr, no other action is taken, and no Replication Agent
instance is created.
