Enables or disables the Replication Agent LTI connection to the primary Replication Server.
true
true – The Replication Agent connection to the primary Replication Server is enabled.
false – The Replication Agent connection to the primary Replication Server is disabled.
When the value of the connect_to_rs parameter is false, no replication will occur. When the Replication Agent instance enters the Replicating state:
a “dummy” connection emulates a real connection to the primary Replication Server
the value of the LTM Locator stored in the Replication Agent transaction log is set to all zeros
the value of the maintenance user ID is FRED
You can use the connect_to_rs parameter to temporarily disable the connection to the primary Replication Server for testing.
When the value of the connect_to_rs parameter is false, you can put the Replication Agent instance in the Replicating state, set the value of the LTITRACELTL trace flag to true, and view the LTL output that would have been sent to the primary Replication Server if the value of the connect_to_rs parameter were true.
During normal Replication Agent operation, the value of the connect_to_rs parameter is true.
