# Using Qlik Replicate

1. Download and install Qlik Replicate Software. (e.g. `sudo rpm -i areplicate-6.6.0-488.x86_64.rpm`)

2. Enable Web UI access. To enable access to the Web UI, run `./repctl SETSERVERPASSWORD <your_password>`. Make sure to follow the requirements for the password described [here](https://help.qlik.com/en-US/replicate/November2020/Content/Replicate/Main/Security/Change_Server_Password.htm).

3. Make sure your environment satisfies the prerequisites for the Source Endpoint (MySQL in our example). MySQL prerequisites can be found [here](https://help.qlik.com/en-US/replicate/November2020/Content/Replicate/Main/MySQL/prereq_mysql_source.htm). For our example, the following commands were used to download and install the necessary software:

   * `wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-5.7/mysql-5.7.32-1.el7.x86_64.rpm-bundle.tar`
   * `sudo yum install -y mysql-community*5.7.32*`
   * `sudo yum -y install https://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/Connector-ODBC/5.3/mysql-connector-odbc-5.3.11-1.el7.x86_64.rpm`
   * `sudo yum install unixODBC`

4. Make sure your environment satisfies the prerequisites for the Target Endpoint (SingleStore in our example). SingleStore prerequisites are the same as MySQL, and can be found [here](https://help.qlik.com/en-US/replicate/November2020/Content/Replicate/Main/MySQL/prereq_mysql.htm).

5. Check the corresponding section of the Qlik Replicate user guide to find out what additional configuration steps are needed and what limitations exist for a particular data source and target.

6. You should be able to open a Qlik Replicate Web Console as described [here](https://help.qlik.com/en-US/replicate/November2020/Content/Replicate/Main/Tutorial/Open_the_Console.htm).

7. You can add a replication task as described [here](https://help.qlik.com/en-US/replicate/November2020/Content/Global_Common/Content/SharedEMReplicate/Design%20Tasks/tasks_setup.htm).

   Note that if you are using a SingleStore Helios workspace as the target, you will need to specify the database access credentials (host, port, user, database) available via the Cloud Portal.

   In the [Cloud Portal](http://portal.singlestore.com), the host is the Endpoint, the port is 3306, the user/password is the “admin” user you were prompted for when you created the workspace. The database name is the database you are using.

8. Now you can run the task as described [here](https://help.qlik.com/en-US/replicate/November2020/Content/Global_Common/Content/SharedEMReplicate/Tasks%20at%20Runtime/monitor_run_task.htm).
