# ADADEF Utility Replication Functions

Two separate ADADEF utility functions impact replication processing for an Adabas database or for an Event Replicator Server:

- The DEFINE REPTOR function controls whether the database you are defining is an Adabas database or an Event Replicator Server.

- The MODIFY REPTOR function specifies whether the database that is running is an Adabas database or an Event Replicator Server.

## ADADEF DEFINE REPTOR Function

The REPTOR parameter must be specified for the ADADEF DEFINE function when using Replication.

> REPTOR: Set the Event Replicator Server

>   The REPTOR parameter is used with ADADEF DEFINE to specify whether a normal Adabas database is being defined, or whether an Event Replicator Server is being defined. Possible values are "YES" or "NO" (default). The format is `ADADEF DEFINE REPTOR=YES`.

>   Specify `REPTOR=NO` for a normal Adabas database. Specify `REPTOR=YES` for an Event Replicator Server.

## ADADEF MODIFY REPTOR Function

The REPTOR parameter is used with ADADEF MODIFY function when using Replication.

> REPTOR: Set the Event Replicator Server

>   The REPTOR parameter is used with ADADEF MODIFY to indicate whether the database that is running is an Adabas database or an Event Replicator Server. Possible values are "YES" or "NO" (default). The format is `ADADEF MODIFY REPTOR=YES`.

>   For a normal Adabas database, the REPTOR parameter must always be set to "NO". When an Event Replicator Server is running, the REPTOR parameter must be set to "YES".
