Why do you need this book?
RepServer is a powerful and versatile product, but it was never designed to be easy to use -- and there are just too many commands and details to remember.
This guide describes all RepServer commands in detail, but also provides essential background information on many RepServer topics that may easily slip a DBA's mind.
In case things stop running smoothly, it also includes some troubleshooting tips.
With the book comes an electronic supplement containing some RSSD queries you may find useful. It also includes some handy RSSD stored procedures.
Since there just isn't a good quick reference guide for RepServer, this book will be incredibly useful for every RepServer DBA.
