Chapter 5: Using the ratool Utility

The RepConnector command line utility (ratool) provides an alternative to RepConnector Manager.

ratool is located in the repra/bin directory (ratool.sh for UNIX, and ratool.bat for Windows). To use ratool you can either add repra/bin to your path or access it directly from the repra/bin directory.

You can use the ratool utility to administer and configure your connection. You can start, stop, refresh, add, delete, and validate a connection; list all connections, and display status for the connection.

Sybase recommends that you use the RepConnector Manager for all configurations. However, ratool can be useful if you are performing batch processing.
