Use the following steps to create the OpenEdge Replication target database.
1. Move or copy the source backup file and the incremental backup file from the source database machine to the target database machine.
2. Copy the structure file (source-db-name.st) from the source database to the target machine.
This structure file lists the physical structure of the source database. If the physical structure of your target database is different (for example, there are different drives, slices, or directories) you must edit the structure file for the target database to accurately describe the physical structure of the target database.
3. If the source database is encrypted, copy the source database key store (source-db-name.ks) to the target database directory and rename it with the name of the target database (target-db-name.ks).
The source database keystore was created when you enabled transparent data encryption on the source database.
4. Restore the backup copy of the source database to the target machine.
The syntax follows:
prorest target-db-name source-db-backup-name
5. If the source database was backed up offline, restore the source database's incremental backup on the target machine.
