Configuring for automatic transition

You configure OpenEdge Replication for automatic transition by editing the source properties file.

To configure OpenEdge Replication for automatic transition:

  1. Set transition=auto in the properties file in the source database directory.
  2. Set critical=1 in the properties file in the source database directory. For example:
    [server]
         control-agents=agent-name1
         database=source-db-name
         transition=auto
         transition-timeout=1200
         
    [control-agent.agent-name1]
         name=agent1
         database=target-db-name
         host=yourhost
         port=port or service name
         connect-timeout=120
         replication-method=async
         critical=1
