You can change the synchronization server associated with a replica
when, for example, the machine you are using has a hardware failure, or you
must rename the existing synchronization server. You must update the properties
of the replica associated with that host so that the store-and-forward facility
can determine how to route updates to the replicas.
About this task
To
move the synchronization server:
- Install the Rational® Shipping
Server on the new machine.
- Use the chreplica command to associate the new synchronization
server with the replica.
multiutil chreplica -clan telecomm -site bangalore -user kumar -password secret -host server3 bangalore
- If you automated the synchronization process on the old synchronization
server, you must set up synchronization export and import scripts on the new
server.
- If you use routing hops, update the host name in the shipping.conf file
(Linux® and
the UNIX® system)
or MultiSite Control
Panel ( Windows®).
- Export update packets to all sibling replicas.
