Active - Active or 2-way replication is very similar to 1-way replication. This is used when changes can be made to both databases and they both must be kept in sync.
...
With 2-way replication the table listing in the console can so long that the prompt cannot be seen. By default, 30 tables are listed for each replication, thus for a 2-way replication, it takes up to 70 screen lines.
To change this, edit the *-MINE.ddc file and add line "set STATUS_BAR_ACTIVE_TABLES 5". Or enter this command at the console prompt. Restart the console for this change to take affect.
CHOOSE REPLICATION
...
By default all commands in the Dbvisit Replicate console work with the default processes MINE and APPLY. This The choose replication command is useful when working with 2-way replication where there are multiple processes such as MINE, APPLY, MINE1 and APPLY1.
Note that the CHOOSE REPLICATION command selects all processes for the indicated replication (so both Mine and Apply processes).
Example:
| Panel | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
dbvrep> CHOOSE REPLICATION MINE1 |
The above command will choose the replication pair that is associated with MINE1. Typically this is MINE1->APPLY1.
Note that the CHOOSE REPLICATION command is needed prior to issuing commands to display, resolve and set conflicts with the APPLY1 process.
