ALLBASE/Replicate User's Guide
Chapter 5 Hints and Suggestions
Introduction
This chapter contains hints, suggestions, and cautions related to
specific master/slave configurations. It includes some general
information that is applicable to any of the configurations under
discussion.
The most important configuration is the replication of an entire
DBEnvironment to a dedicated slave. When you understand the issues
related to this configuration, only small differences remain for the
other configurations. Therefore, the replication of a DBEnvironment to a
dedicated slave is discussed in detail in the first section of this
chapter. The remaining sections, each describing one of the remaining
configurations, only cover significant differences from the first
configuration. The final section of this chapter explains how to convert
an existing DBEnvironment to an ALLBASE/Replicate DBEnvironment and set
up the soft resynchronization for it.
These are the configurations:
* Entire DBEnvironment to dedicated slave.
* Subset of a DBEnvironment to a dedicated slave.
* Multiple masters to one slave.
* Two-way replication.
* Conversion of an existing DBEnvironment for ALLBASE/Replicate.
