RE: Informix Enterprise Replication

Just to safe yourself possible headaches - make sure your Solaris patches are not old / out dated - caused LOTS of problems for me ! -----Original Message----- From: owner-informix-list@iiug.org [mailto:owner-informix-list@iiug.org] On Behalf Of Alex Daman Sent: 16 February 2005 09:09 AM To: informix-list@iiug.org Subject: Informix Enterprise Replication Hi All, Is there anyone out there who has setup ER on 7.31.UD1. Im trying to implement a proof of concept for replicating two of our sites. Im runnig with Online 7.31.UD1 on Sun Solaris platform. I have configured my sqlhosts files according to the Replication guide, see below: ############### SQLHOSTS FILE ####################### g_pocmel group - - i=1 pocmel ontlitcp mel-log inf_repl g=g_pocmel pocmel_shm onipcshm mel-log pocmel g=g_pocmel #g_pocsyd group - - i=2 pocsyd ontlitcp syd-log inf_repl g=g_pocsyd pocsyd_shm onipcshm syd-log pocsyd g=g_pocsyd ############### END OF FILE ###################### I have tested both connections between each other and both are ok. However, when I try and run the any cdr command, I get the following error: cdr define server --send=quedbs --recv=quedbs --init pocmel INFORMIXSERVER not defined in environment $ cdr list serverINFORMIXSERVER not defined in environment No matter what cdr command I run, I get this type of response back. My INFORMIXSERVER variable is of course set, however I think the problem lies somewhere else. Very frustrated at the moment Can anyone help out here! Or send me some white papers (not from the Replication guide, I have read this guide over and over !) Thanks in advance. Alex sending to informix-list
