    The document provides step-by-step instructions for setting up a warm standby environment for Sybase replication using command line statements. It involves preparing the primary and standby ASE servers, configuring the replication server, marking the primary database for replication, dumping the primary database and loading it into the standby, and starting replication between the servers. Once complete, a working warm standby configuration is established to provide high availability through data replication.

    Warm Standby setup instructions


    From SybaseWiki

    Sybase Replication Server allows you to create and maintain a warm standby environment. The creation can be done with, for instance, the rs_init utility
    or Sybase Central. In some cases extra flexibility is needed and this can best be achieved when command line statements are used.
    For various other
    reasons people prefer using this method.

    This page describes the steps to be taken to create a warm standby environment through a combination of commands given to ASE and Replication
    Server. It should be considered as a kind of worksheet. Feel free to make changes to suit your individual need. This might be needed when you are
    dealing with a database with big table(s) holding text or image datatypes or you want to optimize performance using replication definitions and
    subscriptions.

    Contents
    1 Assumptions of the environment
    2 Preparation of the Sybase ASE-servers
    3 Preparation of the Replication Server
    4 Configure the RepAgent
    5 Mark the database for replication and grant permissions
    6 Configure the replication server for the standby database

    Assumptions of the environment


    The setup makes the following assumptions:
    The Replication Server is already configured and running.
    Replication is done between ASE servers
    Materialization will be done with a dump-load scenario
    Replication is performed without replication definitions and subscriptions
    User activity will continue throughout the creation process

    The setup is divided into a number of steps, where each step is a separate unit of work.

    Preparation of the Sybase ASE-servers

    Create a maintenance user on both ASE's

    The maintenance user is used by the replication server to apply transactions. Make sure that the name and password of the maintenance user on both
    servers are identical. For practical reasons make the maintenance user aliased to "dbo" in the database. Since a dump-load scenario is used to materialize
    the standby database, make sure that the suid of the maintenance user on both servers are identical.

    sp_addlogin "<maintenance_user>","<maintenance_user_password>"

    go

    grant role replication_role to "<maintenance_user>"

    go

    -- check the value of the suid

    select suser_id("<maintenance_user>")

    go

    use <database>

    go

    sp_addalias "<maintenance_user>","dbo"

    go

    Install the replication server stored procedures and tables

    To do this, make a copy of the script rs_install_primary.sql located in the $SYBASE/$SYBASE_REP/scripts directory. Comment out 2 commands of the
    script: the dbcc settrunc and the sp_setreplicate commands. These can be found at the end of the file, or just above the definition of the
    rs_send_repserver_cmd stored procedure.

    The commands that are skipped will be executed at a later stage, when the replication agent is configured. Apply the script on the active server in the
    right database.

    isql -Usa -P<password> -S<active_server> -D<database> -i changed_rs_install_primary.sql

    Configure both servers for replication

    sp_configure "enable rep agent threads",1

    Preparation of the Replication Server


    Create a logical connection on the replication server

    The name of it does not have to match with the name of the primary database server and database, but this convention is widely used.

    create logical connection to <active_server>.<database>

    www.petersap.nl/SybaseWiki/index.php/Warm_Standby_setup_instructions 2/5
    26/9/21 11:05 Warm Standby setup instructions - SybaseWiki

    Create a connection from the replication server to the active database

    create connection to <active_server>.<database>

    set error class to rs_sqlserver_error_class

    set function string class to rs_sqlserver_function_class

    set username to <maintenance_user>

    set password to <maintenance_user_password>

    with log transfer on

    as active for <active_server>.<database>

    Create a login in the replication server

    This login is used by the rep-agent running in the ASE to connect to the replication server.

    create user <rep-agent_user>

    set password <rep-agent_password>

    set password_expiration to '0'

    go

    grant connect source to <rep-agent_user>

    go

    Configure the RepAgent


    The configuration of the Replication Agent within the active ASE should now be done. All steps within this paragraph should be executed within a
    controlled time frame since the transaction log cannot be cleared between the execution of the first sp_config_rep_agent and the sp_start_rep_agent.
    The
    configuration is only needed on the primary server. Since we use a dump-load scenario the configuration is copied to the standby server during the
    materialization phase.

    use <database>

    go

    sp_config_rep_agent "<database>", "enable", "<repserver>", "<rep-agent_user>", "<rep-agent_password>"

    go

    sp_config_rep_agent "<database>", "send warm standby xacts", true

    go

    sp_setreplicate rs_marker,"true"

    go

    sp_setreplicate rs_update_lastcommit,"true"

    go

    sp_start_rep_agent "<database>"

    go

    Mark the database for replication and grant permissions


    Execute the sp_reptostandby stored procedure in the active ASE to activate replication from the active database to the replication server.

    We also need to grant permissions to a few stored procedures.

    use <database>

    go

    grant execute on rs_update_lastcommit to public

    grant execute on rs_marker to public

    grant execute on rs_check_repl_stat to public

    go

    sp_reptostandby "<database>","all"

    go

    Configure the replication server for the standby database


    All steps within this paragraph should be executed within a controlled time frame since the stable queue in the replication server cannot be cleared
    between the execution of the create connection and resume connection.

    Create a connection from the replication server to the standby server

    create connection to <standby-server>.<database>

    set error class to rs_sqlserver_error_class

    set function string class to rs_sqlserver_function_class

    set username to <maintenance_user>

    set password to <maintenance_user_password>

    with log transfer on

    as standby for <active_server>.<database>

    use dump marker

    Dump the database on the active server so it can be loaded into the standby server

    dump database <database> to "<file-name>"

    Load the database dump into the standby server

    load database <database> from "<file-name>"

    go

    online database <database>

    go

    26/9/21 11:05 Warm Standby setup instructions - SybaseWiki

    Start the connection from the replication server to the standby database

    resume connection to <standby-server>.<database>

    Congratulations, you now have a working Warm Standby configuration!
