`stream replica autosetup`

Sets up and starts replication between a source stream and replica stream.

Permission required to run this command: Your user ID must have the adminperm and copyperm permissions on the stream that is specified by the -path parameter.

NOTE: The mapr user is not treated as a superuser. MapR Streams does not allow the mapr user to run this command unless that user is given the relevant permission or permissions with access-control expressions.

The maprcli stream replica autosetup command performs the following steps to set up replication:

Creates a stream in the destination cluster.
Declares the new stream to be a replica of the source stream and ensures that replication does not begin immediately after the next step.
Declares the source stream as the original of the replica stream.
Runs the mapr copystream utility to load a copy of the source data into the replica.
Clears the paused replication state to start replication.

Syntax

CLI

stream replica autosetup
	 -path stream path 
	 -replica remote stream path 
	[ -synchronous replicate to remote stream before acknowledging producers. default: false ]
	[ -multimaster set up bi-directional replication. default: false ]
	[ -throttle throttle replication operations under load. default: false ]
	[ -networkencryption enable on-wire encryption. default: false ]
	[ -networkcompression on-wire compression type: off|lz4|lzf|zlib default: compression setting on stream ]

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`path`	The path and name of the stream that you want to create a replica for.
`replica`	The path and name of the stream that you want to create as a replica of the stream that you specified with the `-path` parameter.
`synchronous`	A boolean value that specifies whether replication is synchronous or asynchronous. The values are `true` or `false`. The default is `false` and specifies asynchronous replication.
`multimaster`	A boolean value that specifies whether or not to set up a multi-master topology. The values are `true` or `false`. The default is `false` and specifies to use the basic master-slave topology, rather than the multi-master topology.
`throttle`	A boolean value that specifies whether to throttle replication operations. Throttle the replication stream to minimize the impact of the replication process on incoming operations during periods of heavy load. The values are `true` or `false`. The default is `false`. Throttling has two effects, both of which allow MapR Streams to use more system resources to process new messages: Throttling slows down the rate at which changes to a stream are replicated. Throttling slows down the rate at which messages to be replicated are read from disk.
`networkencryption`	A boolean value that specifies whether or not to enable on-wire encryption. The values are `true` or `false`. The default is `false`. If you set the value to `true`, the local cluster and any other cluster that is part of the replication process must be enabled for security.
`networkcompression`	Specifies the type of compression to use when replicating messages. For more information, see Compression.
