Once source database replication is disabled, the only way to replicate the database again is to re-enable Replication on the source database then re-baseline the target.
To Disable Fathom OpenEdge Replication Online: Available since Fathom Replication 3.0 and later.
[source]1. Disable Replication:
The Replication Server first needs to be stopped if running currently
$ dsrutil source_dbname -C terminate server
Release pending waits once the RPLS has stopped
$ dsrutil source_dbname -C RELWAITS
Disable Source Replication online
$ dsrutil source_dbname -C disablesitereplication source
2. Maintenance:
- Stop and archive all DSRUTIL cron jobs / scheduled tasks / utilities that access the source database
- Delete the *.repl.recovery and archive or rename the *.repl.properties files (for source)
- Remove the -DBService replserv and -pica database startup parameters
- Any LOCKED ai files will be marked FULL after disabling source replication
3. If after-imaging also needs to be disabled online:
$ rfutil source_dbname -C aimage aioff
4. Maintenance:
- Stop and archive all RFUTIL cron jobs / scheduled tasks / utilities that access the source database
- Remove AIW from starting against source database (proaiw)
- Remove -aibufs and -aistall source database startup parameters
- If AI Management was enabled, remove the -aiarcdir, -aiarcinterval, -aiarcdircreate source database startup parameters
- Consider removing the ai files from source at next shutdown: $ prostrct remove source_dbname ai
5. It is recommended to backup this database online after disabling after-imaging and or only replication.
[target]1. If the target database was running when replication was disabled against source, it will be in PRE-Transition state and still running.
$ proshut target_dbname -by
2. Delete the target database (*)
$ prodel target_dbname
3. Maintenance:
- Stop and archive all cron jobs / scheduled tasks / utilities that access the target database
- Delete the *.repl.recovery and archive or rename the *.repl.properties files (for target)
(*) If the target database needs to be preserved, disable target replication instead of deleting it:
$ proutil target_dbname -C disablesitereplication target
- Remove the -DBService replagent and -pica database startup parameters
