Progress Fathom Replication
User’s Guide

> ## 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:

>     source_db_name.repl.properties

> 3. Edit the [server] and `[control.agent]` section, similar to the following:

>     [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

> 4. Copy the target properties file from $DSRHOME/properties/target.repl.properties to the database directories for each target database.

> 5. Rename each file by replacing target with your target database name:

>     target_db_name.repl.properties

> 6. Edit the [agent] section in each file, similar to the following:

>     [agent]
>          name=agent_name
>          database=target_db_name
>          listener-minport=1500
>          listener-maxport=4500

> For complete information about these steps, see the "Configuring Fathom Replication" section.
