HDR using encryption with CSM ??

I set up a HDR pair of two servers. The replication is in clear text. Is it possible to use encryption with the Informix CSM methods for this HA pair. My first test failed with : 12:25:34 HDR can not connect to <paired server> over a CSM connection

CSM is half duplexed. HDR is fully duplexed. You will need to seperate the port used by HDR from the normal client activity. See the release notes for the usage of option s=6 for details on how to do this.

Madison, I isolated HDR communication with option s=6 as follows: lvv_prod_sec onsoctcp <servername> lvv_prod_sec s=6 and HDR works. But using CSM like lvv_prod_sec onsoctcp <servername> lvv_prod_sec s=6 csm=(ENCCSM) still gives HDR can not connect to lvv_prod_sec over a CSM connection Am I still missing something ?? BTW I am using 9.40 HC3 "Madison Pruet" <mpruet@comcast.net> wrote in message news:<B8fGc.26413$a24.21070@attbi_s03>... > CSM is half duplexed.

HDR is using full duplex protocol. The CSM is using half duplex. That means that HDR can not be using encryption.
