Preparing to use the wizard
Before you use the wizard in a production application, you need to
complete the following tasks:
-
Set up a consolidated database and write synchronization
scripts as described in Preparing
consolidated databases -
Create a remote database on the desktop and set up one or more
publications, users, and subscriptions as described in Creating remote databases -
Register the database with the ODBC manager on all remote
machines, or create a file DSN for the remote database, as described
in Connecting to Your Database and in Using a file DSN instead of a registry
DSN -
Make sure all remote machines have the required supporting
files, as described in Runtime requirements
for synchronization on remote machines -
(Optional) Create a database connection profile for the remote
database, as described in Connecting to Your Database. This allows the wizard to
retrieve a list of publications in the remote database for which
MobiLink subscriptions have been entered
