This section describes how to use the isql interactive SQL utility to log in to the Mirror Replication Agent administration port.
Before you can log in to the Mirror Replication Agent administration port with an Open Client application (such as isql), first create a server entry for the Mirror Replication Agent instance in the interfaces file. See “Creating an entry in the interfaces file” for more information.
The first time you log in to a newly created Mirror Replication Agent instance,
use the default administrator login “sa” with
no password.
Logging in to a Mirror Replication Agent instance
Open an operating system command window.
At the operating system prompt, enter the following command:
isql -Uusername -Ppassword -Sinst_name
where:
username is the Mirror Replication Agent administrator login.
password is the corresponding password.
inst_name is the name of the Mirror Replication Agent instance.
For example, to log in to a new Mirror Replication Agent instance named “my_ma,” enter:
isql -Usa -P -Smy_ma
After you have successfully logged in to the administration port, you can use Mirror Replication Agent commands to administer the Mirror Replication Agent instance.
