- Hello,
-
- Basically, we have a european system with a Sybase server and
- an american system with a Sybase server.
- These two DB need to contain the same data.
-
- Updating them both at the same time is not allowable because the no updates
- can be done if one system is down or if the connection is down.
-
- So I have to write a 'Store and Forward' procedure. Sybase will make a
- 'replication server' which can handle this but this will only be
- in production by the end of december which is too late for us.
-
- I don't feel like reinventing the weel, so how can I solve problems like this:
- - connection is down
- - In both DB an object X is created
- - connection is up again
- - I try to forward object X to the other DB but there is is rejected because
- it already exists.
- What are the possibilities then?
- Any references to articles or other literature will be greatly appreciated.
- Algorithms also.
-
- Thanx in advance,
-
