Unicode Support, New Platform, and more...

RepliWeb is pleased to announce the release of R-1 v3.6 and RDS v 2.6.

The v3.6 release delivers: 1) operational and security enhancements that are important for organizations with International development, QA and production environments, 2) the ability to deploy both Content and IIS6 Metabase through a single software-based solution, 3) support for high performance server platforms such as HP Itanium and Sun Solaris 10 x86 and Sparc.

Highlights unique to the R-1 v.3.6 release include:

• Metabase Replication - Now through a single, unified product (R-1), Administrators can automate the publishing of complete websites - files, web content and IIS6 Metabase.
• Execution Only Web Interface - We've made significant enhancements to the Web UI to allow Administrators to create publishing jobs and assign them to "End-Users" such as Content Creators, QA Managers, Developers, etc. Through the R-1 Web UI End-Users can only access R-1 publishing jobs they are authorized to see, and only have the ability to initiate and monitor publishing jobs. They cannot make changes or modify the job properties or settings.

Highlights of features in both R-1 and RDS:

• Unicode Support - Both products now support the ability to transfer files with file names and content with Unicode character sets.
• Global Password Modification Utility - Administrators can now rapidly implement global-passwords changes to all jobs, templates and default files without interrupting ongoing jobs. This accelerates the adoption of new security initiatives and greatly reduces administrative time.
• Edge File Browse - The Console GUI now supports file browsing of local and remote subdirectories, allowing for improved job definition capabilities and enhancing the data integrity between source and target servers.
• New Platforms - R-1 and RDS now support high-performance platforms such as HP Itanium, Sun Solaris10 x86 and Sparc.

Please contact your Regional Business Managers (sales@repliweb.com) or our Support Team (support.repliweb.com) regarding questions about the new release or upgrade.

Site Server CRS required Users to establish multiple "Projects" to mirroring or publish different websites from staging environments to production web servers. Often new R-1 users maintain their legacy operating procedures and create multiple R-1 jobs. By consolidating R-1 jobs you may improve application, server and network performance, and streamline monitoring and management requirements.

2. Running Continuous Update Jobs without the initialization phase

R-1 may now be configured to run Continuous Update jobs without the need to run an initial snapshot. Although there are many benefits in running a snapshot, special situations demand the immediate deployment of files.

3. Redefining error reports

You can specify whether jobs should abort on certain errors: snapshot creation, transferring files and deleting files. If none of these options is selected, RDS & R-1 will log the failure in the report but will continue with the replication process. Learn to configure the jobs to continue handing the rest of the files when there is an error in accessing / transferring one of the files.
