I believe by default primary keys are replicated. Is it not working for you

If you take a look at sp_addarticle at its @schema_option, there is option to set for primary key constraint.

If you look at the default schema option for all the log based article type 0x80 are enabled for all of them. I think this article is the closest I can think of. I'm pretty sure, it's on by default.

Also a quick test probably won't hurt, just create a simple table with two integer columns and make the first column the primary key, then replicate to db2. Seeing is believing :-)

I misread your posting... I think that's the question for DB2 Replication forum.
