Generate a Replica Package

The replica package file has configuration data that enables the replica instance to connect to the primary instance and replicate the primary instance data. When you add a replica instance to a deployment, you must provide a replica package file. Use the Operations Console on the primary instance to generate the replica package file and download the file to your local machine.

Before you begin 

You must be an Operations Console administrator.

Procedure 

1. On the primary instance Operations Console, click Deployment Configuration > Instances > Generate Replica Package.

2. Click Download to download the replica package file, and click Save to save the replica package (replica_package.zip) to your local machine.

3. Click Done.

After you finish 

If you are replacing an existing replica instance, see Delete a Replica Instance.
