Shutting down the ASE Replicator process

Shutting down the ASE Replicator process automatically suspends all subscriptions and all database connections, and terminates all ASE Replicator components.

You have two shut down options:

Graceful shut down
Immediate shut down

In a graceful shut down, the ASE Replicator components complete their operations on current transactions in the primary database, and then finish replicating all transactions in the Distribution Database queue before terminating. After all components have terminated, the ASE Replicator process terminates.

In an immediate shut down, all ASE Replicator components terminate immediately, regardless of their current operations or status, and the ASE Replicator process terminates.

To shut down the ASE Replicator process:

Select the primary Adaptive Server in the left pane.
Right-click the ASE Replicator folder.
Select Shutdown.
Click one of the following buttons in the Question dialog box:
- Shutdown
- Shutdown immediately

After the ASE Replicator process is shut down, you must invoke the appropriate start-up script at an operating system prompt on the Adaptive Server host machine to restart ASE Replicator.

For information about starting the ASE Replicator process, refer to the ASE Replicator Users Guide.
