If you are using two-way replication or multiple Replication Agents connected to a server, set the
unique_id
option in the Replication Agent configuration file so that each Replication Agent has its own unique ID.If you are doing two-way replication between servers on the same machine, use the
REPL_NODEID
option in both servers' configuration files to set unique node IDs for the servers.If you use
localhost
or the DNS name forsource_server
ortarget_server
inctreplagent.cfg
, you will need to useREPL_NODEID
