Creating a CDD for Adabas to Adabas Event Replication using the CONNX SQL Engine

Creating a CDD for Adabas to Adabas Event Replication using the CONNX SQL Engine is the first step in getting data replicated.  This includes:

  • Opening the CONNX Data Dictionary (CDD) Manager

  • Setting up the source and target Adabas connections

  • Setting the correct CDD security

  • Saving the CDD

 

Create a CDD for Adabas to Adabas Event Replication using the CONNX SQL Engine if:

  • You have never used the CONNX SQL Engine before

  • You do not have an existing CDD containing the source and target Adabas connections needed for event replication.

 

After you create a CDD for Adabas to Adabas Event Replication  using the CONNX SQL Engine you will be ready to:

  • Enable the Event Replicator

 

The Open Systems Event Replicator needs a CONNX Data Dictionary (CDD) to replicate. Create a new CDD if you do not have an existing CDD that contains both the source and target databases.  

 

  1. On the Start menu, click Programs, click CONNX Driver and then click CONNX Data Dictionary. The Open window appears.
