Hi, I have a problem with data replication (HDR). Setting it up works, and everything runs as expeced; but when the secondary crashes and I try to restart it (oninit, after that onmode -d secondary...), I only get: 11:00:33 DR: new type = secondary, primary server name = prim_tcp 11:00:33 DR: Trying to connect to primary server ... 11:00:36 DR: Secondary server connected 11:00:37 DR: Failure recovery from disk in progress ... 11:00:37 DR: Failure during start of logical restore (1) 11:00:37 DR: Failure recovery error (6) 11:00:38 DR: Turned off on secondary server 11:00:38 DR: Failure during start of logical restore (1) 11:00:38 DR: new type = standard I.e. it fails to start up the replication and acts as a standalone server. I have to do a complete backup of the primary and re-initialize the secondary with it every time. I am using IDS 7.31U on Solaris/x86. Thanks for any enlightenment, Frederik -- Frederik Ramm (frederik@remote.org)
