 How do we resend a PLOG?

 A PLOG can be resent from the MINE process to the APPLY process by using an internal engine command. Please see API and Internal Commands for more information.

...

  1. Stop the MINE and APPLY processes
  2. In the console type (use the PLOG sequence instead of X):

    No Format
    dbvrep> ENGINE MINE RESET TO PLOG X
  3. On the target or apply database, run:

    No Format
    SQL> delete dbvrep.dbrsapply_plog_history where sequence>=X;
  4. On the target or Apply server, move all the plogs >= sequence X that are in the "apply" directory to another location for backup purposes. 
  5. On the source or Mine server, move all the plogs >= sequence X that are in the "mine" directory to another location for backup purposes.  
  6. Restart MINE process
  7. Restart APPLY process

Note

How to determine what is X?

To determine which Plog sequence to resend from, look at which Plog sequence the Apply process is currently at. Once Apply has processed a Plog, it is not possible to re-apply this Plog. So the earliest Plog that be resend is the Plog that is currently being applied.

On the command console, if the Apply status is showing the following:

No Format
APPLY IS running. Currently at plog 11078 and SCN 477678885 (04/28/2014 11:25:47).

Then the plog sequence to resend is 11078.
