This section summarizes the tasks you use to install and configure Replication Server. For specific installation instructions, see the Replication Server Installation and Configuration Guide for your platform.
Install and configure Replication Server version 12.6 according to the product documentation.
Install the RepServer Client for Windows, which installs the required files for Replication Server Manager (RSM). The RSM Client is a plug-in to Sybase Central and is available only on Microsoft Windows platforms.
If Setup asks you whether you want to overwrite any Open Client/Open Server DLLs older than those currently installed on your system, choose No.
Do not use the SAMPLE_RS that can be configured during the RepServer installation. SAMPLE_RS uses an ASA database, which is not currently supported by RSM.
Use rs_init to create a RepServer instance. rs_init is a utility used to configure Replication Server and add databases to a replication system.
From the Windows Services management console, start the new RepServer service. This service is named Sybase REP_ <server_name>, where <server_name> is the name you gave to your server.
