Lesson 3: Start the MobiLink synchronization client

The MobiLink client may now be started from a command prompt. The MobiLink client initiates synchronization.

You can specify connection parameters for the remote database on the dbmlsync command line using the -c option.

To start the MobiLink client

1. Ensure that the MobiLink server is started.

2. At a command prompt, navigate to your OracleTut directory.

3. Type the following command:

   dbmlsync -c "dsn=test_remote" -o dbmlsync.out -v+ -e "SendColumnNames=ON"

   This command line specifies the following dbmlsync options:

   • -c    Supply database connection parameters. See -c option.

   • -o    Specify the message log file. See -o option.

   • -v+    Verbose operation. See -v option.

   • -e    Extended options. Specifying "SendColumnNames=ON" sends column names to MobiLink. See MobiLink SQL Anywhere Client Extended Options.
