Preparing the Replication Environment

The following topics explain the steps that are required for setting up Enterprise Replication.

The cdr autoconfig serve command can auto-configure Enterprise Replication for a database server that has a configured storage pool, and propagate connectivity information between the database servers in an Enterprise Replication domain. Complete the following steps to auto-configure Enterprise Replication:
  1. Verify that the CDR_AUTO_DISCOVER configuration parameter is set to 1 on all database servers.
  2. Verify that the storage pool is configured on any database server that you are adding to the Enterprise Replication Domain.
  3. Choose a database server to be your source server for propagating configuration changes to other servers, and for replicating date to a newly added replication server.
  4. On the source server, set trusted-host information for all database servers by running the admin() or task() function with the cdr add trustedhost argument.
  5. Verify that all replication servers are active.
  6. On the source server, run the cdr autoconfig serve command. Alternatively, you can run the cdr autoconfig serve command on a different database server, but you must specify the source server's information in the command.
