create encryption key
Use the create encryption key command to create an encryption key for SharePlex to use to encrypt data across the network. SharePlex uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption.
The create encryption key command returns a randomly generated, 256-bit AES key. By default, SharePlex uses 128 bits of that length to encrypt the data.
To increase the key length that SharePlex uses, set the SP_XPT_AES_KEY_LENGTH parameter to 192 or 256 bits. When you increase the length, the key is harder to hack but requires more CPU power.
sp_ctrl> set param sp_xpt_aes_key_length {192 | 256}
Example: set param sp_xpt_aes_key_length 256
The following is an example key:

Remote options
These options enable you to issue the command on a remote machine and to script commands that include a login name, password, port number, or combination of those items.
| on host |
Execute the command on a remote system (one other than the one where the current sp_ctrl session is running). You are prompted for login credentials for the remote system. If used, must be the last component of the command syntax.
Example: sp_ctrl(sysB)>status on SysA |
| on host:portnumber |
Execute the command on a remote system when a remote login and port number must be provided. If used, must be the last component of the command syntax.
Example: sp_ctrl(sysB)>status on SysA:8304 |
| on login/password@host |
Execute the command on a remote system when a remote login, password, and host name must be provided. If used, must be the last component of the command syntax.
Example:sp_ctrl(sysB)>status on john/spot5489@SysA |
| on login/password@host:portnumber |
Execute the command on a remote system when a remote login, password, host name, and port number must be provided. If used, must be the last component of the command syntax.
Example: sp_ctrl(sysB)>status on john/spot5489@SysA:8304 |
deactivate config
Use the deactivate config command to gracefully terminate replication for an active configuration. This command stops all Capture activity for the configuration, posts all data currently in the queues, and removes the associated SharePlex processes and queues.
The deactivate config command does not remove a configuration from the system, but only stops replication of its objects until you activate it again. When you deactivate a configuration, it can cause the target data to go out of synchronization if users continue making changes to the configured source objects. Deactivating one configuration on a system does not deactivate other active configurations on the same system.
Deactivating when multiple configurations are active
When replicating from multiple databases on the same source system, use the deactivate config command only if you have named (separate) export queues in each configuration that separate the data streams of those instances. Normally, the data from all replicated instances accumulates in one export queue. When you issue the deactivate config command, it deletes all the data in the export queue (along with the queue itself), including data for configuration(s) you might not want to deactivate. See Chapter 5 of the SharePlex Administrator’s Guide for instructions on creating a configuration using named export queues.
To save time when activating a configuration that is only slightly different than the active one, you do not need to deactivate the active one first. While it is still active, you can copy the active configuration with the copy config command. Change the copy with the edit config command, and then activate the copy. Using this method saves time because SharePlex will not re-analyze the objects that are common to both configurations. SharePlex will only analyze the new objects. (If you deactivate the first configuration before activating the copy, SharePlex will analyze all of the objects. This process takes longer.) Be sure that the first config has completed the activation process before activating the copy.
