SET REPLSERVER (Set the target replication server)

Use this command to set the name of a target replication server. You can also use this command to change or remove a target replication server.

Issue this command on the server that acts as a source for replicated data.

To display the name of a target replication server, issue the QUERY STATUS command on a source replication server.

Important:
  • The server name that you specify with this command must match the name of an existing server definition, and it must be the name of the server to be used as the target replication server. If the server name specified by this command does not match the server name of an existing server definition, the command fails.
  • Use care when changing or removing a target replication server. If you change a target replication server, replicated client-node data is sent to a different target replication server. If you remove a target replication server, client node data is not replicated.

Privilege class

To issue this command, you must have system privilege.

Parameters

To remove a target replication server, issue the command without specifying a value.

Example: Set a target replication server

The name of the server that you want to set as the target replication server is SERVER1.
set replserver server1

Example: Remove a target replication server

The name of the server that you want to remove is SERVER1.

Issuing this command removes SERVER1 as the target replication server for the source replication server where you issued the command. Other source replication servers might have SERVER1 as a target replication server.
