Realizing Templates

About this task

After you define a template using the cdr define template command, use the cdr realize template command to instantiate the template on your Enterprise Replication database servers. The cdr realize template command first verifies that the tables on each node match the master definition used to create the template. Then, on each node, it adds the tables defined in the template as participants to master replicates created by the template.

If a table on a server has additional columns to those defined in the template, those columns are not considered part of the replicate.

If a table does not already exist on a server where you realize the template, you can choose to create it, and it is also added to the replicate.

Also, at realization time, you can also choose to synchronize data among all servers.
