Annoying error in repserver documentation for default error classes

sladebe — Thu, 24 Sep 2026 16:15:09 GMT

In the doc page Assign Actions to Data Server Errors, it says:

"You must create a default error class at a primary site before you can use assign action to change default error actions"

But in the doc page Default Error Classes, it says:

"SAP Replication Server provides rs_sqlserver_error_class as the default SAP ASE error class, rs_repserver_error_class as the default SAP Replication Server error class, and default error classes for non-SAP ASE databases. You cannot modify these default error classes."

The "You must create a default error class" really should say "you cannot assign actions to the predefined default error classes rs_sqlserver_error_class, rs_repserver_error_class"

Ok, I'm done whining

The wording is indeed ambiguous. The intent is not that users must create the predefined default error classes such as rs_sqlserver_error_class or rs_repserver_error_class, since those are provided by SAP Replication Server and cannot be modified. Rather, users must create their own default error class before using assign action to override default error actions. We agree that the current wording could be interpreted incorrectly and will consider clarifying the documentation to distinguish between predefined default error classes and user-created default error classes.
