You can modify several Open Systems Event Replication registry settings:
CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PORT specifies the CONNX Message Queue controller port..
If CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PORT is greater than 1024, the Replication Controller will accept Replication Engine communications on that port value.
If the port specified in CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PORT is unavailable, then either change CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PORT to 0 to allow the Replication Controller to use the first available port, or change CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PORT to a port value that is available.
Valid CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PORT values are:
0 - Use first available port
1 through 1024 - Reserved for internal use
1025 through 65535 - Use the port specified. The specified port must be available.
The default CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PORT value is 9205.
CONNX.REPLICATION.DEBUG_LEVEL controls the debug output that goes to the log file.
The CONNX.REPLICATION.DEBUG_LEVEL values are:
0 - debug off.
1 - Normal debug output. Messages provide some debugging/status information but do not severely affect performance.
2 - Extreme debug output. The transaction level diagnostics generated will negatively impact performance.
The default CONNX.REPLICATION.DEBUG_LEVEL is 0 (off).
CONNX.REPLICATION.EP_ADA_CFG_PORT specifies the port that the ep_config process will listen on for requests from the event producer.
The default CONNX.REPLICATION.EP_ADA_CFG_PORT value is 9207.
CONNX.REPLICATION.MQ_PORT specifies the CONNX Message Queue listening port..
The default CONNX.REPLICATION.MQ_PORT value is 9200.
CONNX.REPLICATION.NOTIFY specifies whether or not to call the notification command job specified by CONNX.REPLICATION.NOTIFY_CMD if the system encounters an Nx error.
The CONNX.REPLICATION.NOTIFY values are:
0 - Do not call the notification command. CONNX.REPLICATION.NOTIFY_CMD is ignored.
1 - Call the notification command specified by CONNX.REPLICATION.NOTIFY_CMD.
The default CONNX.REPLICATION.NOTIFY value is 0 (do not call).
CONNX.REPLICATION.NOTIFY_CMD specifies the location and name of the notification job to call when NOTIFY is 1 and the system encounters an Nx error.
If CONNX.REPLICATION.NOTIFY is 0, CONNX.REPLICATION.NOTIFY_CMD has no effect.
Example: CONNX.REPLICATION.NOTIFY_CMD="C:\CONNX32\REPLICATION\COMMON\EVENTNOTIFY.CMD"
The default value is "eventnotify" and there is a sample eventnotify.cmd file in the Samples directory.
CONNX.REPLICATION.STATUSREFRESHINTERVAL controls the Server Status refresh interval. This setting applies to the Replication Administrator.
When you view the Server Status, the status is normally refreshed every 30 seconds. CONNX.REPLICATION.STATUSREFRESHINTERVAL changes the default refresh interval.
Valid CONNX.REPLICATION.STATUSREFRESHINTERVAL values (in seconds) are:
0 - disable background refresh.
Between 1 and 30 - 30 seconds (minimum value).
Greater than 30 - Number of seconds specified up to 86,400 seconds (maximum value).
Note: 86,400 seconds is 24 hours.
CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PERF_ENABLED enables the gathering and reporting of performance statistics by the Replication Controller.
Performance statistics will be written to the CTRL.log file. Optionally, the current statistics output will be directed to a file specified by CTRL_PERF_STAT_FILE.
Valid CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PERF_ENABLED values are:
0 - disable performance statistics
1 - enable performance statistics. .
The default CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PERF_ENABLED value is 0 (do not gather and report statistics).
CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PERF_QUERY_INTERVAL determines the number of seconds between statistics calls the controller makes to the EC.
Valid CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PERF_QUERY_INTERVAL values are:
Number of seconds specified up to 86,400 seconds (maximum value).
The default CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PERF_QUERY_INTERVAL value is 3600 seconds.
CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PERF_STAT_FILE causes the current statistics output to be saved to a designated file.
The output will still appear in the CTRL.log file. This file can be used as an easy way to access the most recent statistics without having to parse the CTRL.log file. Only the most current statistics will be in this file. For statistics history, the CTRL.log file must be used..
Valid CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PERF_STAT_FILE values are:
The name (including the path) of the statistics file you wish to use.
The default CONNX.REPLICATION.CTRL_PERF_STAT_FILE value is blank which means do not use an additional statistics output file.
CONNX.REPLICATION.ADABCK_ET_SYNC_WAIT causes the ADABCK DUMP step in the initial state process to use the ET_SYNC_WAIT parameter.
The Adabas utility ADABCK is used during the initial state process for Adabas to Adabas replication. When set, the ET_SYNC_WAIT parameter defines the time (in seconds) that ADABCK waits for ET-logic users to come to ET status at the end of the DUMP function. Setting the CONNX.REPLICATION parameter ADABCK_ET_SYNC_WAIT allows the user to control the value of this parameter for replication.
This parameter is set in the registry (sqlregistry on Unix/Linux machines and CONNX Configuration Manager on Windows machines) on the machine where the Replication Controller is running.
Valid CONNX.REPLICATION.ADABCK_ET_SYNC_WAIT values are:
0 - Do not set ET_SYNC_WAIT on the ADABCK DUMP command. ADABCK will use the value set in the nucleus' TT parameter.
1 through 32767 - The number of seconds to set ET_SYNC_WAIT on the ADABCK DUMP command.
The default CONNX.REPLICATION.ADABCK_ET_SYNC_WAIT is 60 seconds.
For more information on the ADABCK ET_SYNC_WAIT parameter, please see the Adabas Utilities guide.
Note: This setting does not apply when replicating to a relational target.
CONNX.REPLICATION.FIXED_TO_BINARY
causes the replication to use the binary format specifier in format buffers
for fixed one and two byte fields.
This setting enables compatibility with format buffer handling in Natural
for fixed one and two byte fields.
Note: This setting applies to Adabas replication only, when replicating to a relational target.
CONNX.REPLICATION.CONTINUEMODE will determine if replication continues when an error is encountered..
This should only be used for debugging purposes at the direction of a support engineer.

The following three values are available:
0 = Permissive. The error is logged and replication continues if the error is not fatal.
1 = Suspend. The error is logged, and replication is suspended for the specific table.
2 = Stop. The error is logged, and replication is stopped for all tables.
The default value is 1 (Suspend).
CONNX.REPLICATION.MQ_CONFIG_DIR will overwrite the default location use for the configuration files of the message queue.

There is no CONNX_EP_DATA_PATH default value. You must assign a path name to CONNX_EP_DATA_PATH.
CONNX_EP_DEBUG_LEVEL controls the debug output that goes to the log file.
The CONNX_EP_DEBUG_LEVEL values are:
0 - debug off.
1 - Normal debug output. Messages provide some debugging/status information but do not severely affect performance.
2 - Extreme debug output. The transaction level diagnostics generated will negatively impact performance.

The default value is "eventnotify" and there is a sample eventnotify.bsh file in the Samples directory.
CONNX_EP_QUEUE_PORT specifies the port number of the CONNX Message queue on the local Adabas Nucleus machine.
The CONNX_EP_QUEUE_PORT may be the same as the CONNX.REPLICATION.MQ_PORT if both the Event Consumer and Event Producer reside on the same machine.
The default CONNX_EP_QUEUE_PORT is 9200.
ADABCKTIMEOUT specifies the amount of time the CONNX Server will wait for the ADABCK utility on the target database to start accepting data before it times out and returns an error. In some circumstances, ADABCK on the target may need to wait for some other process to complete before it can start accepting data from the source. An example of this would be if a an initial state is being done on a very large source file and the target database needs to be expanded in order to accommodate the file. In this case, ADABCK must wait for the nucleus to finish expanding the database before it can start accepting data from the source.
The value for ADABCKTIMEOUT is specified in minutes and the default is 10.
ADABCKTIMEOUT is a CONNX Server environment variable and must be set in the connxserver script on the target system.
This setting is only valid on Unix and Linux systems.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Changing this setting will not improve performance and setting it incorrectly can result in unexpected errors. Do not change the value of this setting unless directed to do so by CONNX Technical Support.
ADABCKSLEEPTIME specifies the amount of time the CONNX Server will wait between retrying writes when it receives an error while writing data to the target pipe the ADABCK utility is reading from.
While writing data to the target system, the CONNX Server may receive a response that the target is not yet ready to receive data. In this case, the server will wait for the time interval specified by ADABCKSLEEPTIME and then it will retry the write operation. It will continue to retry write operations until the timeout period specified by ADABCKTIMEOUT has been exceeded.
The value for ADABCKSLEEPTIME is specified in milliseconds and the default is 10.
ADABCKSLEEPTIME is a CONNX Server environment variable and must be set in the connxserver script on the target system.
This setting is only valid on Unix and Linux systems.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Changing this setting can have a severe impact on the performance of the initial state process. Do not change the value of this setting unless directed to do so by CONNX Technical Support.
