Replicate SELECT reserve_identity within a Stored Procedure in a warm standby setup

Hi ,

We have a use case where an ASE database is setup in a Warm Standby using SAP Sybase Replication Server

• Primary :  “PDS.mydb”
• Standby :  “RDS.mydb”
• A stored procedure “mydb..myTest_sp” uses the following SELECT statement

select @myLogId  = reserve_identity( 'mydb..myLog', 1 )

• The procedure also inserts a row into another base table eg. “mydb..myAppTab” using @myLogId as one of the values.

Result ( in a standard Warm Standby setup )

• After execution of the stored procedure, Only logged transactions ( DMLs ) are replicated
• The effect of the above SELECT calling function “reserve_identity” is not replicated
• From ISQL prompt following query reports current value @PDS.mydb and older value @RDS.mydb

select next_identity('mydb..myLog')

Table DDL:

create table myLog (

myLog_Id   numeric(20,0) identity

)

Question:

• Using “sp_setrepproc” to replicate the stored procedure “mydb..myTest_sp” replicates execution of the stored procedure @RDS.mydb
• Is this the best method to replicate the usage ofSELECT “reserve_identity” inside the stored procedure ?

Thanks & Regards
