Identifying the subscription

After authenticating a user, the Sync Server determines the group that the user belongs to, then queries the base de datos de control de administración to determine what subscription is involved in the request. For this reason, the Sync Server must be able to uniquely identify each subscription by name.

This task is part of the larger task of creating a DataPropagator subscription. When you have completed these steps, return to Creating a DataPropagator subscription.

Procedure

1. Click the Identification tab of the Creating carga subscriptions notebook.
2. Fill in these fields:
   • Name Provide a descriptive, unique name for the subscription from 1 to 18 characters long.

     For DB2 DataPropagator subscriptions, the system converts the name that you specify here to uppercase upon saving it in the base de datos de control de administración. After the name is saved in the control database, you cannot rename the subscription because this function is not supported by DB2 DataPropagator. You must first delete the existing subscription, then create a new subscription with the new name.

   • Description

     Type up to 128 characters of text that describes this subscription.
