RSM configuration

This section summarizes the tasks you use to configure Replication Server Manager. For specific installation instructions, see the Replication Server 12.6 Configuration Guide for your platform.

  1. Configure Replication Server Manager according to the product documentation. For specific configuration instructions, see the Configuration Guide Replication Server 12.6 for your platform.

  2. Verify that the %SYBASE%\ini directory includes a sql.ini file that contains an entry for each server you want RSM to manage, as well as an entry for the RSM Server.

    Use dsedit to create an RSM server entry and an entry for the Sybase IQ server in the sql.ini file. Define the RSM port as any available port number; the Sybase IQ port should be the actual port that the server is using. See the Replication Server Administration Guide and the Replication Server Installation Guide for Windows for more information.

  3. Run RSM Server Setup from the Sybase group on the Windows Programs menu. This creates a Windows service for RSM named Sybase RSMServer_<server name>, where <server name> is the RSM server name. Enter a valid Windows login and password. This user ID will be used to stop and start the new RSM service.

  4. From the Windows Services management console, start the new RSM service. This service is named Sybase RSMServer_<server name>, where <server name> is the name you used to define the RSM server.
