When you invoke the ra_admin command with the -c and -f options (to create a new Replication Agent instance and copy the configuration of an existing Replication Agent instance), the values of some configuration parameters in the existing configuration are not copied to the new configuration.
The values of the following configuration parameters are not copied from an existing configuration:
admin_port log_directory pds_database_name pds_datasource_name pds_host_name pds_password pds_port_number pds_retry_count pds_retry_timeout pds_server_name pds_service_name pds_username rs_source_db rs_source_ds
See Chapter 5, “Sybase Replication Agent Configuration Parameters” for detailed information about these configuration parameters.
