Progress Fathom Replication
User’s Guide

> ## Setting up the target database

> You must restore your backup of the source database to use as your target database.

> To create the target database:

> 1. Copy the structure file (`.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 will need to edit the structure file to accurately describe the physical structure of the target database.

> 2. Restore the backup copy of the source database on the target machine.

> For more information on backing up and restoring a database, see the Progress Database Administration Guide and Reference .

> 3. Restore the incremental backup of your source database on the target machine.

> For more information on restoring incremental backups, see the Progress Database Administration Guide and Reference .

> ##### Enable the target database for Fathom Replication

> Fathom Replication requires that you enable your target database for Fathom Replication with the following command:

>     PROUTIL target_db_name -C enableSiteReplication target
