Hi there, Has anyone experience of using replication with this version of Informix on a Sun Solaris platform (2.5.1). Any info would be appreciated. Bill Spencer

Enterprise Replication on 7.24 is more difficult to setup than later versions because the repman GUI requires setting up SNMP which is error prone. There is also a set of commands, but they need to be compiled first. I would suggest using the commands. In 7.3, the GUI no longer requires SNMP, and a new command line that is documented and supported. Also, the performance of later versions is much improved especially when using lots of servers and replicates. -- Stephen Hemminger Enterprise Replication R&D Informix Software,Inc. <sch@informix.com>
