Replication question with IDS 10

Hi everyone. I have a system that I am upgrading from IDS 9.4 FCX21 to IDS 10 FC9. The system uses Enterprise Replication. I called informix support about this and they were not sure what the answer is (they are still looking at it). In the IDS 10 migration guide there is a rather obscure comment on page 4-1 (page 97 if you are reading the pdf) that says.... "If you have replicate groups, which Dynamic Server 10.0 does not support, remove all of them". This is not referring to replicatesets. The IDS 10 version of ER adds functionality but I cannot see any references to anything REMOVED. Does anyone per chance know what this comment is referring to? when I execute the command onstat -g grp on the current 9.4 system it does respond back with some output that says "Replication Group 65545 at (some hex-number) table_name" etc.... for EVERY table that we are replicating.

In 7.31 we had groups. If you are migrating from 7.31 to anything past= 9.30, you would need to remove the groups prior to the migration. ------------------------------------- Madison Pruet, STSM IDS Replication Architect = "WILL LANDSTROM" = <willlandstrom@ya = hoo.com> = To Sent by: ids@iiug.org = ids-bounces@iiug. = cc org = Subj= ect Replication question with IDS 10= 01/14/2009 10:24 [14530] = AM = = = Please respond to = ids@iiug.org = = = Hi everyone.

Oh yes --- onstat -g grp displays stuff about the grouper, not groups.= ------------------------------------- Madison Pruet, STSM IDS Replication Architect = "WILL LANDSTROM" = <willlandstrom@ya = hoo.com> = To Sent by: ids@iiug.org = ids-bounces@iiug. = cc org = Subj= ect Replication question with IDS 10= 01/14/2009 10:24 [14530] = AM = = = Please respond to = ids@iiug.org = = = Hi everyone.

Hi Madison. I think this answers my question. Since the current system is at IDS 9.4 it would appear I don't have an issue here since we are already past the 9.3 point. Thanks!
