replicating varbinary columns

$

SRS supports replicating varbinary columns, but does that mean SRS also deals with different endianess between source and target servers?

 

Example:

Source system on Linux, little endian.

Target system on AIX, big endian

 

Data to be replicated is encrypted using Sybase column encryption, that means the column is replicated as ciphertext in varbinary format.

Is this varbinary string automatically byte swapped for endianess on the target server?

 

The encryption key can be sync'd using dump & load, or it can be replicated.

If dump & load is used, then the load database will take care of the cross platform endianess conversion.

 

What about replicating the encryption key cross platform with different endianess?
