RDOHELP72.HLB  —  Replication Option, DEFINE_TRANSFER, Format  transfer-name
    Identifies the transfer by name. The transfer name must be unique
    across all of the nodes at a given VAXcluster or VMScluster site
    because a single transfer database serves all nodes in a cluster
    environment. For example, you could have two users on the same
    server attempting to create a transfer called PERS_REC. One user
    would succeed while the other would receive an error message
    saying that the transfer already exists. To ensure that names
    are unique, you may wish to make the user identifier part of each
    transfer name.

    A valid transfer name has the following characteristics:

    o  Has a length from 1 to 31 bytes (octets).

    o  Can be formed using any of the set of ASCII characters:

               A B C ... Z 0 1 2 ... 9 _ $ a b c ... z

       Lower case letters may be used, but are treated as if they
       were uppercase.

    o  Cannot include letters with diacritical marks (which are used
       in European languages for instance).

    o  The first character of the name must either be a letter or the
       dollar sign ($). However, Oracle Corporation recommends that you do not
       use dollar signs in a transfer name; dollar signs are reserved
       for special use by Digital Equipment Corporation.

    The transfer-name parameter is required.
