DB_REPLICATE(1)              BerkeleyDB Utilities              DB_REPLICATE(1)

NAME
       db_replicate - Provide replication services
SYNOPSIS
       db_replicate  [-MVv] [-h home] [-L file] [-P password] [-T num-threads]
       [-t secs]
DESCRIPTION
       The db_replicate utility is a daemon  process  that  provides  replica-
       tion/HA  services  on a transactional environment. This utility enables
       you to upgrade an existing Transactional Data Store application  to  an
       HA application with minor modifications.
OPTIONS
       -h home
              Specify  a  home  directory  for  the  database  environment; by
              default, the current working directory is used.
       -L file
              Log the execution of the db_replicate utility to  the  specified
              file  in  the following format, where ### is the process ID, and
              the date is the time the utility was started.
              db_replicate: ### Wed Jun 15 01:23:45 EDT 1995
              Additionally, events such as site role changes will be noted  in
              the  log  file.   This  file will be removed if the db_replicate
              utility exits gracefully.
       -M     Start the db_replicate utility to be  the  master  site  of  the
              replication  group.   Otherwise,  the  site will be started as a
              client replica.
       -P password
              Specify an environment password.  Although Berkeley DB utilities
              overwrite  password  strings as soon as possible, be aware there
              may be a window of vulnerability on systems  where  unprivileged
              users  can see command-line arguments or where utilities are not
              able to overwrite the memory containing the  command-line  argu-
              ments.
       -T num-threads
              Specify the number of replication message processing threads.
       -t secs
              Specify  how  often (in seconds) the utility will check for pro-
              gram interruption and resend the last log record.
       -V     Write the library version number to  the  standard  output,  and
              exit.
       -v     Turn  on  replication  verbose messages.  These messages will be
              written to the standard output and will be quite voluminous.
       The db_replicate utility does not attempt to  create  the  Berkeley  DB
       shared  memory  regions  if  they do not already exist. The application
       that creates the region should be started first, and once the region is
       created,  the  db_replicate utility should be started.  The application
       must use the DB_INIT_REP and DB_THREAD flags when creating the environ-
       ment.
       The  db_replicate  utility uses a Berkeley DB environment (as described
       for the -h option, the environment variable  DB_HOME,  or  because  the
       utility  was  run in a directory containing a Berkeley DB environment).
       In order to avoid environment corruption when using a Berkeley DB envi-
       ronment,  db_replicate should always be given the chance to detach from
       the environment and exit gracefully.  To cause db_replicate to  release
       all environment resources and exit cleanly, send it an interrupt signal
       (SIGINT).
EXIT STATUS
       The db_replicate utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
ENVIRONMENT
       DB_HOME
              If the -h option is not specified and the  environment  variable
              DB_HOME  is set, it is used as the path of the database home, as
              described in DB_ENV->open.
NOTES
       This utility is not supported for use with the DB SQL APIs.
