Configuring Fathom Replication for two agents

You configure Fathom Replication by copying and editing the sample properties file.

To configure Fathom Replication for one agent:

  1. Copy the source properties file from $DSRHOME/properties/source.repl.properties to your source database directory.
  2. Rename it by replacing source with your source database name:
  3. source_db_name.repl.properties 
    

  4. Edit the [server] and [control.agent] section, similar to the following:
  5. [server] 
         control-agents=agent1_name, agemt2_name 
         database=source_db_name 
         transition=manual 
         transition-timeout=1200 
          
    [control-agent.agent1_name] 
         name=agent1_name 
         database=target_db_name 
         host=yourhost 
         port=your port or service name 
         connect-timeout=120 
         replication-method=async 
         critical=0 
          
    [control-agent.agent2_name] 
         name=agent2_name 
         database=target_db2_name 
         host=yourhost 
         port=your port or service name 
         connect-timeout=120 
         replication-method=async 
         critical=0 
    

  6. Copy the target properties file from $DSRHOME/properties/target.repl.properties to the database directories for each target database.
  7. Rename each file by replacing target with your target database name:
  8. target_db_name.repl.properties 
    

  9. Edit the [agent] section in each file, similar to the following:
  10. [agent] 
         name=agent_name 
         database=target_db_name 
         listener-minport=1500 
         listener-maxport=4500
