Prepares a schema/table for replication and declares that their content is in sync as of now. If a schema is prepared and DDL replication is enabled, new tables created in this schema in future will be also prepared and replicated. By default, this command connects to running apply and mine and instructs them to replicate the schema/table. If OFFLINE is used, apply/mine will pick the new tables on the next start. Use OFFLINE if the apply and mine are not running, as some network configurations may cause long timeouts while PREPARE tries to connect to the apply/mine.

By default, DDL replication is enabled. Use NODDL to disable it (mandatory for non-Oracle databases). RENAME clause makes the replication to apply the changes to the given schema/table at apply. Note that the RENAME TO clause requires the NODDL option.
