2.89 STOP REPLICAT

Use STOP REPLICAT to stop Replicat cleanly. This command preserves the state of synchronization for the next time Replicat starts, and it ensures that Manager does not automatically start Replicat.

In a clean shutdown of a coordinated Replicat, the coordinator thread attempts to stop all of the threads on the same transaction boundary. If the shutdown of a coordinated Replicat is not clean, the threads may stop at different positions in the trail file. If this happens, START REPLICAT writes a warning if the parameter file was changed since the prior run and raises an error if the number of threads was changed. To resolve these problems and start Replicat again, see Administering a Coordinated Replicat Configuration.
