Implementing Fathom Replication

You can choose between two implementations of Fathom Replication, the default and deferred agent startup.

The default implementation requires that the Fathom Replication agents must start before the connection time-out expires. Also, the default configuration of Fathom Replication does not allow source and target database activity until both the Fathom Replication server and agents have completed their startup and initialization phases.

The alternative implementation (deferred agent startup) allows the source database and the Fathom Replication server to start without connecting to an agent. This implementation is useful if you need to create a target database from an online backup of the source database. The advantage is that you can get your source database up and running much sooner.
