Re: Save interval will work for a non-standby DSI connection.
After reading things some more, for repserver to ASE connections, the repserver documentation only talks about explicitly replaying save_interval transactions using the "sysadmin restore_dsi_saved_segments" command after a ASE dataserver crash (w/loss of recently applied data in the ASE server). At least, as far as I can find.
Note that in the documentation for the "sysadmin restore_dsi_saved_segments" it says:
"The DSI must be explicitly suspended before you can use this command to restore saved segments."
So for my scenario (after a hard repserver crash), maybe I have to boot the repserver in standalone mode (boots with all DSIs down by default), run the restore_dsi_saved_segments command on all DSIs, then reboot the repserver in normal mode.
I'll run a test and see what happens. Stay tuned for updates
