This section describes how to synchronize replicas by entering explicit syncreplica commands.
If your sites are connected electronically, you can use store-and-forward to send the packet (–fship) or place it in a storage bay (–ship).
The following example uses the –fship option to send the packet immediately:
multiutil syncreplica -export -clan telecomm -site sanfran_hub -family PRODA -user jcole -password passwd -maxsize 50m -workdir c:\temp\packets -fship -sclass cq_default bangalore
If you did not use the –fship option, send the packets:
shipping_server –sclass cq_default –poll shipping_server shipping-order-pathname
This example specifies the –receive option; syncreplica imports any packets it finds in the incoming shipping directories.
multiutil syncreplica -import -family PRODA -user kumar -password secret -receive -sclass cq_default
This example specifies a directory pathname as an argument. syncreplica –import looks in this directory for update packets and applies them to the replica on the host.
multiutil syncreplica -import -family PRODA -user kumar -password secret \\ramohalli\shipping\incoming\
