When Is Online Database Synchronization
Complete?
whether or not it adjusted the restart position, the extractor may log messages 766,
767, and 768 again, even if it had logged any of them prior to the restart condition.
When Is Online Database Synchronization Complete?
The following RDF messages assist you in knowing when the various phases of online
database synchronization are complete:
Extractor Messages
Messages 766, 767, and 768 in combination report the completion of phase 1. Message
782 reports the completion of phase 2. Message 782 indicates that the extractor has
finished its involvement in the online synchronization operation.
Updater Messages
Message 844 reports the completion of phase 1. Message 782 reports the completion of
phase 2. Message 782 indicates that the updater has finished its involvement in the
online synchronization operation.
In addition, the STATUS RDF display has been enhanced to identify which database
volumes are still being synchronized. That information is reported in the error column
of the display. If a volume is still being synchronized, its entry in the error column is
sync. As soon as a volume is successfully synchronized, its entry in the error column is
blank. If an updater encounters an error during synchronization, the associated entry in
the error column is ****.
The following sample display shows that the updater process $MUP1 for the data
volume $DATA1 has successfully completed synchronization while the updater process
$MUP2 for the data volume $DATA2 is still doing the synchronization:
