repcfg Command—Configure Replicator

The repcfg command lets you configure Replicator installations from the command line (instead of using Replicator Manager or Visual DBA).

The repcfg command has the following format:

repcfg dbname obj_type action [-uusername] [-q] object {object} [-help]

• dbname

  Specifies the name of the database.

• obj_type

  Specifies the object type.

  Limits: cdds or table. Both arguments can be abbreviated to the initial character and are case-sensitive.

• action

  Specifies the action to be performed.

  Limits: activate, deactivate, or createkeys. These arguments can be abbreviated to the initial character and are case-sensitive.

• -uusername

  Specifies the effective user for the session.

• object

  Specifies the object to configure. This can be a CDDS number or table number.

  Note: No more than 100 objects can be specified. This limit can be raised by modifying the utexe.def file. For more information, see the Database Administrator Guide.
