Replication Monitoring Services (RMS) is a middle tier in a replication solution. The RMS layer monitors all objects in a replication environment. The RMS layer also provides troubleshooting functionality. Replication Manager provides commands to create, modify, and delete replication objects. The RMS tier provides an API to monitor, manage, and troubleshoot the replication environment.
In summary, RMS supports these tasks:
Monitoring status
Controlling the RMS environment
Configuring server parameters and trace flags
Monitoring Replication Server threads
Managing user defined events
Use the RMS API to issue commands from the command line, or to implement the commands within scripts and processes that you develop.
See Replication Server Reference Manual for more information about the RMS API, and the server and component status codes used.
