Dbvisit Replicate support is reachable at http://www.dbvisit.com/support/service_desk/, the single point of contact for all Dbvisit products. To help collect all the information needed by the support, Dbvisit Replicate contains a built-in trace file packaging facility. Use command SUPPORT PACKAGE process to create a zip file containing the files for the specified process, running this command in turn on fetcher, mine and apply servers.

Trying retrieving +DATA/src/onlinelog/group_1.276.748600819 from ASM.
If this fails, restart with NOASM added to the SUPPORT command.
Packaging data from database. If this fails, restart SUPPORT PACKAGE with NODB option.
====> If instructed by support, run as SYSDBA the script get_logtrace.jTZ4.sql
and upload the generated tracefile (script will show the name) to Dbvisit Support as well.
The created file includes the process name and a unique identifier, so multiple runs of the packaging command won't overwrite past zip files.
The command can take further arguments, forcing it to skip some files – use it only if packaging otherwise fails.
