Deactivating and Reactivating a Regional Node
This section describes the procedure to deactivate and reactivate a Regional Node. CAUTION: Make sure to do a full backup of the HQ Node and the Regional Nodes before deactivating a regional node.
To deactivate a regional node
- Synchronize all remaining transactions of remote users assigned to the Regional Node (if any).
- Make sure all transactions have been applied to the Regional Node (for example, make sure that Txn Merger on the Regional Node has processed the .dx files).
- Check that the transactions have been synchronized with the HQ node.
- Move every Remote user attached to your Regional Node to either the HQ Node or another Regional Node (if any).
- Shut down the Transaction Processor, Router, Merger and RepAgent on the Regional Node.
- Shut down the Transaction Processor and Router on the HQ Node.
- On the HQ Node, set the Effective End Date for the Regional Node in Administration - Siebel Remote > Replication Servers.
- Restart the Transaction Processor and Router on the HQ Node.
- Point the Regional Node connected users to HQ by modifying ODBC sources and the CFG file.
- Delete the docking folder for the Regional Node from the Siebel Server\DOCKING directory on the HQ Node as it is no longer needed.
To reactivate a Regional node
- Shut down the Transaction Processor and Router on the HQ Node.
- On the HQ Node, set the Effective End Date to NULL in Administration - Siebel Remote > Replication Servers for this Regional Node, on HQ.
- Reextract and reinitialize the regional database.
