Replicating Data with Replication Server
Using the LTM
Language and character set issues are an important consideration in many replication sites. Each database and server in the system uses a specific collation (character set and sorting order) for storing and ordering strings. Adaptive Server Anywhere character set support is carried out in a different manner to character set support in Adaptive Server Enterprise and other Open Client/Open Server based applications.
This section describes how to configure the Adaptive Server Anywhere LTM such that data in an Adaptive Server Anywhere database can be shared with Replication Server and hence with other databases.
The LTM automatically uses the default Open Client/Open Server language, sort order, and character set. You can override these defaults by adding entries to the LTM configuration file.
