The Sybase Replication Agent ra command line utility allows you to start a Replication Agent instance. When you start a Replication Agent instance with the ra utility, you can specify the start-up state.
If you do not specify a start-up state on the command
line when you invoke the ra command, the Replication Agent instance
goes to its default Admin state.
To start a Replication Agent instance
Enter the following command at the operating system prompt:
ra -iinst_name -state
where inst_name is the name of the Replication Agent instance you want to launch and state is the keyword for the start-up state.
See “Using the ra utility” for more information.
After you start a Replication Agent instance, you must open
another operating system window to log in to the Replication Agent
administration port and perform administrative tasks, such as shutting
down, configuring, or changing the running state of the Replication
Agent instance.
