Generating Remote Sybase AS Anywhere Databases for All MobiLink Users

If you need to deploy the remote Sybase AS Anywhere database to multiple devices, you have to create a Sybase AS Anywhere database for each MobiLink user. This database should contain the synchronization user, the synchronization subscription, and the global database ID.

You specify MobiLink users from the remote database property sheet (see MobiLink remote database properties).

  1. Generate a remote Sybase AS Anywhere database as for a single MobiLink user (see Generating a remote Sybase AS Anywhere database for a single MobiLink user).
  2. Right click the remote database, and select Create ASA Databases for all MobiLink Users. This creates a subdirectory and a specific Sybase AS Anywhere database for each MobiLink user.

The remote Sybase AS Anywhere database is used as a database template. If the remote Sybase AS Anywhere database is in a different location, you can use the RemoteDatabaseFile extended attribute to indicate the file path.
