Enterprise Replication pains

Hi All, I have to implement Enterprise Replication with approximately 500 replicates. I'm trying to write an awk script that will basically allow me to just pass down a list of the tables and define the replicates dynamically. I've got 2 servers declared to ER, and now I'm trying to define replicates using the following piece of awk code. { DBSERVER="repltest1" REPLICATE=$1 DATABASE="stores7" INFORMIXSERVER="testrep_dsa"DATABASE2="stores7" INFORMIXSERVER2="recrep_dsa" printf("define_repl -c %s %s -C \\"ignore\\" -S tran -A -R \\"%s@%s:informix.%s\\" \\"select * from %s\\" \\"%s@%s:informix.%s\\" \\" select * from %s \\"\\n",DBSERVER,REPLICATE,DATABASE,INFORMIXSERVER,$1,$1,DATABASE2,INFORMIXSER VER2,$1,$1) } When I run this script, informix returns the following: command unsuccessful -- error 37 offending participant stores7@recrep_dsa:informix.call_type ' select * from call_type ' command unsuccessful -- error 37 offending participant stores7@recrep_dsa:informix.catalog ' select * from catalog ' command unsuccessful -- error 37 offending participant stores7@recrep_dsa:informix.cust_calls ' select * from cust_calls ' command unsuccessful -- error 28 command unsuccessful -- error 37 offending participant stores7@recrep_dsa:informix.custview ' select * from custview ' command unsuccessful -- error 37 offending participant stores7@recrep_dsa:informix.items ' select * from items ' command unsuccessful -- error 37 offending participant stores7@recrep_dsa:informix.log_record ' select * from log_record ' command unsuccessful -- error 37 offending participant stores7@recrep_dsa:informix.manufact ' select * from manufact ' command unsuccessful -- error 37 offending participant stores7@recrep_dsa:informix.orders ' select * from orders ' command unsuccessful -- error 37 offending participant stores7@recrep_dsa:informix.someorders ' select * from someorders ' command unsuccessful -- error 37 offending participant stores7@recrep_dsa:informix.state ' select * from state ' command unsuccessful -- error 37 offending participant stores7@recrep_dsa:informix.stock ' select * from stock ' (I'm testing my scripts on the demo7 database) I'm running Informix 7.23UC5 on HP-UX 10.20, any pointers would GREATLY be appreciated!
