The syntax used for
REPM Server commands is the Backus Naur Form (BNF) with the following conventions:<
Rule name> ::= <Rule section>The terms in angle brackets represent syntactical units. Each rule name must be resolved by a rule section.
A rule section is any combination of rules and endsymbols. Endsymbols are numbers, literals, or
keywords and are not resolved further.Rule sections set in angle brackets indicate an optional user input.
The keywords used in the commands are written in uppercase for the sake of clarity. They can be specified by the user in upper- or lowercase letters.
Blank characters are allowed in commands. These are not interpreted by the Replication Manager.
Comments in the
command file are initiated by a slash at the start of the line. The entire line is then ignored when the command file is processed by the REPM Server.Endsymbols that start with
val stand for values that must be specified by the user. Remember that values for 'valLITERAL' (as specified in the syntax rules) must be placed in single quotation marks.If you use keywords as names of columns, tables or users, you must place them in double quotation marks.
