Starting database replication

This procedure describes how to start the database replication process when it is not initialized or not working. You will need to perform this procedure after you install a secondary, perform failover, or fallback, or after a communication malfunction occurred between the primary and secondary database servers.

To start database replication:

1. From the High Availability tab, select the primary Control-M/Server component and click Start Database Replication.

   The Replication process initiates. After the initiation process is complete, the following message appears in the Properties pane:

   Database is replicated

2. Restart Control-M/Server, as described in Starting up a component.

   The database continues to replicate to the secondary in synchronous mode. If there are network communication problems, the replication mode switches to Asynchronous. After the network problems are resolved, click Switch to Sync Replication to continue replicating in synchronous mode.
