Replication Agent Parameters


Table 30 lists the parameters for Replication Agent. Replication Agent can also use generic parameters described in Siebel System Administration Guide. Also, refer to the same guide for more information about managing server components with Siebel Server Manager.

Optional
Default Value and Usage Notes

HQ

The Dock Connect String of the parent Siebel Server.

Required

The format is the same as for the Dock Connect String:

machine_name:
network_protocol:sync_port: service:encryption

where machine_name identifies the parent Siebel Server and sync_port identifies the synchronization port number.

Available choices are:

network_protocol: TCPIP
sync_port: 40400, Any
service: SMI
encryption: None, MSCRYPTO, RSA

Default for Sync Port: 40400

Default for Encryption: None

Comm Param

The colon-separated list of communications parameters used to connect to the parent Siebel Server.

Optional

This parameter is not used.

SleepTime

The period (in seconds) for which Replication Agent should sleep between synchronization sessions.

Optional

Default: 60

MaxWrite

Used to limit the size of a DX file—that is, to break DX files to be sent to the parent Siebel Server into smaller, more manageable pieces.

Replication Manager closes the existing DX file and starts writing to a new DX file when the current DX file reaches the maximum number of operations specified with this parameter.

Optional

Default: 10000

SendTxns

Sends DX files from the Regional Server to the parent Siebel Server.

If this parameter is set to FALSE, Replication Manager does not send DX files from the Regional Server to the parent Siebel Server.

Optional

Default: TRUE

RecvTxns

Receives DX files sent by the parent Siebel Server to the Regional Server.

If this parameter is set to FALSE, Replication Manager does not receive DX files sent by the parent Siebel Server to the Regional Server.

Optional

Default: TRUE

RecvFiles

Receives file attachments sent by the parent Siebel Server to the Regional Server.

If this parameter is set to FALSE, Replication Manager does not receive file attachments sent by the parent Siebel Server to the Regional Server.

Optional

Default: TRUE

Iterations

Specifies the number of times that Replication Agent will connect to the parent node.

Typically, this parameter is set to zero (0), and the Replication Agent loops forever (or until stopped by the server administrator).

If you set this parameter to 1 and start Replication Agent, this causes a single synchronization to occur.

Optional

Default: 0

MaxCommitTxns

Specifies how many transactions will be applied before they are committed to the database.

Optional

Default: 100

The Replication Agent runs as a service-mode task, which means that after it is started, it runs continuously.
