This task is part of the greater task of Setting up Synchronization.
When you have completed the steps below, return to Setting
up Synchronization
DB2 Everyplace Sync Server uses DB2 DataPropagator to replicate data
between Sync Server and DB2 Universal Database. Before you can
synchronize data using DataPropagator subscriptions, you need to configure the
databases that you are planning to synchronize to..
Procedure
To configure the databases:
- Exit the DB2 Control Center and the DB2 E veryplaceAdministrator.
- For Windows, open the DB2 Command Window by selecting Start -->
Programs --> IBM DB2--> Command Window. For UNIX, open
a window and ensure that you have started the DB2 database manager. If
not, issue a db2start command.
- Change directories to \SQLLIBDIR\bnd, where
SQLLIBDIR is the directory in which DB2 Universal Database
is installed.
- Type bindcap vnurse to configure the source database.
vnurse is the name of the database used in this example.
- Type bindcap m_vnurse to configure the mirror database.
m_vnurse is the name of the mirror database used in this
example.
- Close the DB2 Universal Database Command Window.
After configuring the DataPropagator subscription databases, you must start
the DataPropagator Capture program for the source database. To start
the DataPropagator Capture program:
- On the source database server, open a DB2 Universal Database Command
Window.
- Start the Capture process by typing the following command:
ASNCCP vnurse
Leave this command window open. The capture process will run
continuously in the background. If the Capture process stops, repeat
these steps.
