Following is an overview of the tasks you must perform to create the default implementation of Fathom Replication.
![]()
To use the default implementation of Fathom Replication:
- Execute your
PROENV
script every time you open a command-line window or shell, and ensure that you have$DLC
,$PROMSGS
,$DSRHOME
, and$PROCFG
environment variables set correctly. For more information about these variables, see OpenEdge Getting Started: Installation and Configuration .- Shut down the source database.
- On the source machine, do the following:
- Create an initial backup of the source database.
- Create a structure file (
.st
) of the source database.- Ensure after-imaging is set up and running.
- Enable the source database for Fathom Replication.
- Perform an incremental backup of the source database.
For more information about these tasks, see the "Setting up the source database for Fathom Replication" section.
- On the target machine, do the following:
- Copy the source database backup to the target machine. (The source database backup is the initial copy of the target database.)
- Enable the target database for Fathom Replication.
For more information about these tasks, see the "Setting up the target database" section.
- Configure Fathom Replication by doing the following:
- Create the server properties file.
- Create the agent properties file.
For more information, see the "Configuring the Fathom Replication property files" section and the "Fathom Replication property files" section.
- Start the databases in the following order:
- The target database.
- The source database.
Because the databases are enabled for Fathom Replication, the Fathom Replication server and agents will also start.
This default implementation does not allow source or target database activity until both the server and agents complete their startup and initialization phases.
