Loading a table while replication is ongoing

Problem Description

Is it possible to call the LOAD feature while replication is ongoing?

Solution

Yes there is a New Feature in 2.8 that allows this to occur. The command is called PROCESS LOAD_REQUEST. You will need to make sure that the DBVREP schema has the proper privileges on the source:

grant select, flashback on chris.tab_tab to dbvrep

First Pause the mine:

dbvrep> pause mine                                                               
Mine requested to pause.

Then PREPARE the table:

dbvrep> prepare table scott.emp
Connecting to running apply [SCOTT.EMP]: [Apply table removed (0 metadata record(s)). Apply table added (1 metadata record(s)).]
Connecting to running mine [SCOTT.EMP]: [Table prepared (1 internal records).]
Table SCOTT.EMP instantiated at SCN *98389504*

LOAD the table:

Resume MINE:
