  Each Replication Agent instance can be started and shut down independently of all other components in a replication system, and independently of other Replication Agent instances.
• Starting Replication
  Start replication for an instance of Replication Agent.
• Stopping Replication in Replication Agent
  Learn how to stop replication for a Replication Agent instance.
• Moving Replication System Components
  You can move a Replication Agent instance and primary database logs from one host machine to another.
• Replication Agent Management
  Review the administration and maintenance tasks for Replication Agent for Oracle, Replication Agent for Microsoft SQL Server, and Replication Agent for UDB.
• Replication Agent System Database (RASD) Management
  Replication Agent for Oracle and Replication Agent for Microsoft SQL Server use an embedded database, managed by SQL Anywhere, for the RASD.
• Replicated Transactions and Procedure Identification
  In a Sybase transaction replication system, the Replication Agent and Replication Server components both provide features that allow you to identify (or select) the transactions that you want to replicate. You do not need to replicate all transactions, or all data-changing operations, in the primary database.
