Error description

  • Replication compatibility documentation in the Knowledge
    Center is not updated since server version 8.1.17.
    It excludes information about versions 8.1.18 to 8.2.0 for
    compatibility between replication source and target servers.
    
    
    For example, the 8.2.0 link only shares compatibility up to
    version 8.1.17:
