You configure OpenEdge Replication by copying and editing the sample source properties file.

Use the following procedure to configure OpenEdge Replication with deferred agent startup:

  1. Copy the source properties file from OpenEdge-install-dir/properties/source.repl.properties to your source database directory, and rename the copy with your source database name.
  2. Edit the [server] section by setting defer-agent-startup to an appropriate value, as shown: 
    [server]
     control-agents=agent-name
     database=source-db-name
     transition=manual
     transition-timeout=1200
     defer-agent-startup=1400
