Overview of Setting Up Replication Sites

Before you begin building your replicated environment, you need to set up the sites that will participate in the replicated environment. As illustrated in Figure 2-2 and Figure 2-3, there are separate processes for setting up a master site versus setting up a snapshot site.

This chapter assumes that you have the following:

• Four Databases:
  • ORC1.WORLD

  • ORC2.WORLD

  • ORC3.WORLD

  • SNAP1.WORLD

Chapters 2 - 6 work with the replication environment illustrated in Figure 2-1. You start to create this environment in this chapter.

Follow the procedures identified in Figure 2-2 when you build a new master site or in Figure 2-3 when you build a new snapshot site.
