Enabling ATS and RIS File Generation

You can enable the generation of ATS and RIS files when you define a replicate.

About this task

Failed transactions are not automatically recorded in ATS and RIS files. You can choose to generate either ATS or RIS files, or both.

You should create a separate directory to store ATS and RIS files. If you do not create a separate directory and specify it when you define the replication server, Enterprise Replication stores the ATS and RIS files in the /tmp directory on UNIX™ and the %INFORMIXDIR%\tmp directory on Windows™.

Procedure

To collect ATS and RIS information
  1. Create a directory for Enterprise Replication to store ATS and RIS files. You can create two directories if you want to generate both types of file and store them in separate directories.
    • If you are using primary-target replication, create the directory on the target system.
    • If you are using update-anywhere replication and have a conflict resolution rule other than ignore or always-apply enabled, create the directory on all participating replication systems.
  2. When you define or modify a replication server, specify the location of the ATS and RIS directory by using the --ats and --ris options of the cdr define server command or the cdr modify server command.
  3. When you define or modify a replicate, specify that ATS and RIS file generation is enabled by using the --ats and --ris options of the cdr define replicate command or the cdr modify replicate command.
