Record the Mirror Replication Agent instance name, the administration port number, and the other administration information on the worksheet.
To complete Section 1 of the Installation and
Setup worksheet
Record the name of the Mirror Replication Agent specific instance.
Record the name of the instance as item 1a on the worksheet in “Section 1: Mirror Replication Agent administration information”.
Record the client socket port number of the administration port for this Mirror Replication Agent instance. The port number must be unique on the Mirror Replication Agent host machine.
Port numbers have a range of 1 to 65,534.
If you are not the System Administrator for the system on which you are installing the Mirror Replication Agent instance, ask your System Administrator which port number you should use for the Mirror Replication Agent administration port.
Record the port number as item 1b on the worksheet in “Section 1: Mirror Replication Agent administration information”.
Mirror Replication Agent requires two port numbers. The additional
one is for the RASD. By default, Mirror Replication Agent assigns the RASD port as admin
port +1. This number must also be unique on
the Mirror Replication Agent host machine.
Determine the location of the interfaces file (sql.ini on Windows 2000 and 2003, or interfaces on Linux and UNIX).
The interfaces file must reside on the same machine
as the Mirror Replication Agent client (isql or Replication
Server Manager), not necessarily the Mirror Replication Agent host machine.
Use this item only if you plan to use the isql or jisql utility or Replication Server Manager (RSM) to administer the Mirror Replication Agent instance.
Record the interfaces file location as item 1c on the worksheet in “Section 1: Mirror Replication Agent administration information”.
Determine the administrative user ID and password for logging in to the Mirror Replication Agent administration port. Use this information to create the administrative user ID during configuration and setup.
Record the administrative user ID as item 1d (admin_user) and the password as item 1e (admin_pw) on the worksheet in “Section 1: Mirror Replication Agent administration information”.
