Configuring Mirror Replication Agent

To set or change a Mirror Replication Agent configuration parameter, use the ra_config command.

Because Mirror Replication Agent overwrites its entire configuration file whenever ra_config or ra_set_login is invoked, Sybase recommends that you do not edit the configuration file. Furthermore, Mirror Replication Agent reads the configuration file only at start up. You must use the ra_config command if you want a new configuration parameter value to take effect before the Mirror Replication Agent is shut down and restarted.

NoteSome configuration parameter changes are recorded in the configuration file when you invoke ra_config, but do not take effect until the Mirror Replication Agent is shut down and restarted.

See Chapter 4, “Mirror Replication Agent Command Reference,” for more information about the ra_config command.

See Chapter 5, “Mirror Replication Agent Configuration Parameters,” for more information about the configuration file and configuration parameters.
