In regard to Event Replicator for ADABAS, is there a startup process for REPTOR, ENTIREX, PSTORE, Event Replicator Online System, and ADABAS databases to be replicated? In other word, for startup, what order should these come up? Which order should they shutdown? ---

At startup the order should be from target to source: ie. PSTORE database, EntireX Broker, Event Replicator and then the source database(s). At shutdown it is the reverse order. This guarantees that replication data can flow instantaneously and completely from the source to the message store. Kind regards, Marbod ---
