Active - Active or 2-way replication is very similar to 1-way replication. This is used when changes can be made to both databases and they both must be kept in sync.
...
The differences between 1-way replication and 2-way replication are:
- There is a Mine MINE and Apply APPLY processes running on each server. With 1-way replication there is only an Apply APPLY OR a Mine MINE process running on each server.
- Changes that are mined on the source server and then applied on the target server are not mined again on the target server. This prevents the feedback loop.
- The Mine MINE and Apply APPLY processes are paired together. So in a typical 2-way replication there are the following 2-pairs:
- MINE > APPLY
- APPLY1 > MINE1
Example : Configuring 2-way replication
2-way replication can be configured through the setup wizard.
To configure 2-way replication, two replication pairs have to be setup. The default in the setup wizard is to configure only 1 pair.
Example configuring 2-way replication
In this example we have setup two databases: orcl and test11202.
At step 2 in the setup wizard, the replication pairs are configured.

Step 2 - Replication pairs ===================================== === The second step is to set source and targets for each replication pair.This is usually just choosing the first database as source and the second one as target, but many more configurations are possible. Let's configure the replication pair, selecting source and target. Following databases are described: 1:orcl reptest1 (Oracle) 2:test11202 reptest2 (Oracle) Select source database:[1] Select target database: [2] Will be DDL replication enabled? (If YES, the script will grant more privileges to the Dbvisit Replicate users and enable database-wide supplemental logging): [yes] Use fetcher to offload the mining to a different server? (yes/no) [no] (NETWORK_QUALITY) - Please specify your network type (LAN or WAN). Autoconfigures timeouts, use of compression etc. [LAN] Lock and copy the data initially one-by-one or at a single SCN? (one-by-one/single-scn/ddl-only/resetlogs) [single-scn] What data copy script to create? (dp_networklink/dp_exp/exp/ddl_file/ddl_run) [dp_networklink] Following replication pairs are now configured: Enter number of replication pair to modify it, or "add", or "done": [done] |
Add another replication pair, by typing "add" instead of "done". Choose the reverse source and target database:
| Section | |||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Two replication pairs are now configured.
Step 3 - Replicated tables
For each replication pair, the objects to be replicated have to specified. This can be the same or different for each replication pair.
| Section | |||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

[1]
Select target database: [2]
Will be DDL replication enabled? [yes] no
Use fetcher to offload the mining to a different server? (yes/no) [no]

How long do you want to set the network timeouts. Recommended range between 60-300 seconds [60]
Lock and copy the data initially one-by-one or at a single SCN?
one-by-one : Lock tables one by one and capture SCN
single-scn : One SCN for all tables
ddl-only : Only DDL script for target objects
resetlogs : Use SCN from last resetlogs operation (standby activation, rman incomplete recovery) (one-by-one/single-scn/ddl-only/resetlogs) [single-scn]
What data instantiation script to create?
dp_networklink : Data Pump with network link. No export datafile is created (APPLY.sh)
dp_exp : Data Pump with export datafile. Creates an export datafile (APPLY.sh)
exp : Pre-datapump exp/imp with export datafile (APPLY.sh)
ddl_file : DDL file created (APPLY.sql)
ddl_run : DDL is automatically executed on target
load : All replicated data is created and loaded automatically
none (dp_networklink/dp_exp/exp/ddl_file/ddl_run/load/none) [dp_networklink]
Following replication pairs are now configured:
1: reptest1 (Oracle) ==> reptest2 (Oracle), DDL: no, fetcher: no, process suffix: (no suffix), compression: no, encryption: no, network timeout: 60, prepare type: single-scn, data load: dp_networklink

Let's configure the replication pair, selecting source and target.
Following databases are described:

Step 3 - Replicated tables
For each replication pair, the objects to be replicated have to specified. This can be the same or different for each replication pair.

Step 3 - Replicated tables
========================================
The third step is to choose the schemas and tables to be replicated.
If the databases are reachable,the tables are checked for
existence, datatype support, etc., schemas are queried for tables.
Note that all messages are merely hints/warnings and may be
ignored if issues are rectified before the scripts are actually executed.
Following tables are defined for replication pairs:
1:reptest1 (Oracle) ==> reptest2 (Oracle), DDL: yes, suffix: (no suffix), prepare: single-scn
No tables defined.
2:reptest2 (Oracle) ==> reptest1 (Oracle), DDL: yes, suffix: 1, prepare: single-scn
No tables defined.
Enter number of replication pair to modify it, or "done": [1]
Please enter list of all individual tables to be replicated. Enter schema name(s) only to replicate all tables in that schema. Use comma or space to delimit the entries.
Enter the tables and schemas: [] AVI
Selected schemas: AVI
Add more tables or schemas? (YES/NO) [NO]
To replicate changes of PL/SQL objects in schema(s), please enter the schemas to be replicated. Note that specifying any entry will cause additional privileges to be granted
to dbvrep. Enter through a comma or space-delimited list.
Enter the list of schemas (PL/SQL): []
You can also specify some advanced options:
1. Rename schemas or tables.
2. Specify filtering conditions.
3. (Tables only) Configure Change Data Capture; this does not maintain a copy of the source table, but logs all operations as separate entries. This is useful for ETL or as
an audit trail. This usually requires adding of new columns (timestamps, old/new values etc.) to the target table.
Specify rename name or filter condition for any of the specified schemas (YES/NO): [no]
Following tables are defined for replication pairs:
1: reptest1 (Oracle) ==> reptest2 (Oracle), DDL: no, suffix: (no suffix), prepare: single-scn
AVI(tables)
2: reptest2 (Oracle) ==> reptest1 (Oracle), DDL: no, suffix: (no suffix), prepare: single-scn
No tables defined.
Enter number of replication pair to modify it, or "done": [2]

These steps are required after the reptest1-all.sh script runs:
1) Create the necessary directory(ies) on the servers:
dbvldemo102: /home/oracle/reptest1
2) Copy the DDC files to the server(s) where the processes will run:
dbvldemo102: /home/oracle/reptest1/reptest1-APPLY.ddc
dbvldemo101: /home/oracle/reptest1/reptest1-APPLY1.ddc
dbvldemo101: /home/oracle/reptest1/reptest1-MINE.ddc
dbvldemo102: /home/oracle/reptest1/reptest1-MINE1.ddc
3) Review that path to dbvrep executable is correct in the run scripts:
/home/oracle/reptest1/reptest1-run-dbvldemo101.sh
/home/oracle/reptest1/reptest1-run-dbvldemo102.sh
4) Copy the run script to the server(s) where the processes will run:
/home/oracle/reptest1/reptest1-run-dbvldemo101.sh
/home/oracle/reptest1/reptest1-run-dbvldemo102.sh
5) Ensure firewall is open for listen interfaces 0.0.0.0:7902, 0.0.0.0:7904, 0.0.0.0:7901, 0.0.0.0:7903 used by the processes.
6) Make sure the data on apply are in sync as of time when setup was run.
Scripts for Data Pump/export/DDL were created as requested:
/home/oracle/reptest1/APPLY.sh
/home/oracle/reptest1/APPLY1.sh
Create referenced database links (if any) before running the scripts.
7) Start the replication processes on all servers:
/home/oracle/reptest1/reptest1-run-dbvldemo101.sh
/home/oracle/reptest1/reptest1-run-dbvldemo102.sh
8) Start the console to monitor the progress:
/home/oracle/reptest1/start-console.sh
The above list is stored in /home/oracle/reptest1/Nextsteps.txt. |
** The above steps are very important to follow one by one. This includes copying of files the wizard created to the target host.
Running scripts from Step #6 is necessary as well.
Start replication by running the scripts ( reptest1-run-dbvldemo101.sh and reptest1-run-dbvldemo102.sh) has commands to start both a MINE and APPLY on each server.
Dbvisit Replicate command console
The console will display both replication pairs simultaneously.

3 tables listed.
With 2-way replication the table listing in the console can so long that the prompt cannot be seen. By default, 30 tables are listed for each replication, thus for a 2-way replication, it takes up to 70 screen lines.
To change this, edit the *-MINE.ddc file and add line "set STATUS_BAR_ACTIVE_TABLES 5". Or enter this command at the console prompt. Restart the console for this change to take affect.
