To define an ETP replicate file, enter the information in the fields, as described below.

Screen Field Description

Replicate File
DBID/FNR
Enter the database ID and file number of the Adabas file that becomes a replicate file. Specify Y (yes) under "Verify FDT" to verify the file's Field Definition Table (FDT); otherwise, enter (or allow a default of) N (no). You must enter a database ID and file number; there are no defaults for these values.
To protect the replicate file from any accidental or unauthorized update by an application, you can define a password for the replicate file for ETP to use when applying transactions to the replicate file. The password is defined using Adabas Security.
Master file
DBID/FNR
Enter the database ID and file number of the master file for the replicate file you specified above. If you enter a wild card for the database ID and/or file number, a list of the master files already defined is displayed. You can then select a master file from the displayed list. To ensure data consistency, the log file must be empty; otherwise, adding a replicate file is not allowed.
Confirmation File
FNR
Enter the database ID and file number of the Adabas file that becomes a confirmation file for the replicate file specified above. The confirmation file must be on the same database as the replicate file; a single confirmation file can be used for multiple replicate files. You must enter a confirmation file number; there is no default, even if a confirmation file already exists on the replicate file's database.
Specify Y (yes, the default) under "Verify FDT" to verify the confirmation file's Field Definition Table (FDT); otherwise, enter N (no).
Replication criterion
(ISN/Key)
  • Enter I (the default) in this field if the duplicate ISNs are to be used to identify corresponding records in the master and partially replicated file.

  • Enter K if a unique Adabas descriptor field has been defined as the distribution key for the master file.

Using duplicate ISNs (option I) is more efficient, but requires a complete Associator (ASSO) for the duplicate file, irrespective of the number of replicated records in the file being modified. Option K allows use of an ASSO subset, but causes additional calls to the replicated file's database.

After pressing Enter, the screen displays "More: +" in the top right corner. When a distribution key has been defined for the master file and you wish to change or add a distribution key value, enter either FORWARD or + on the command line to display the screen for defining the distribution key values.

Defining Distribution Key Values

When you define a replicate file containing only a subset of master file records, you can also define a value or value range for the distribution key. The distribution key is the control field in each file record that ETP uses to determine which records are contained in each replicate file.

Replicate File Key Definition Screen

23:59:59           ***** ENTIRE TRANSACTION PROPAGATOR *****         2000-12-24
                          Add Replicate File Definition                 More: -
 
 
 Distribution key format A30

   Start value                            End Value
   ________________________________       ________________________________
   ________________________________       ________________________________
                   .                                    .
                   .                                    .
                   .                                    .

When you enter either FORWARD or + in the first Add Replicate File Definition screen, the screen shown above appears. Here you can enter up to 14 values and/or ranges of values contained in the record field with the format shown in the Distribution Key Format field.

If you make an entry in only one of the start or end value columns, the entry is copied automatically to the other column. Multiple values/value ranges are ORed to create a complete "accept" criterion for the replicate file defined in the first screen.

When the total key length for a format is greater than 32 bytes for a format A field or 16 bytes for a format B field, another column of fields is displayed. You can use these fields to request extra space to enter a key value in full-length, wraparound fashion. If a value longer than 32 or 16 characters respectively is entered, the information entered previously is protected when the window is closed. You can change the value only by reselecting extended editing for the corresponding value.

A distribution key for a format A field is not converted to upper case.

To return to the first screen, use the BACKWARD (PF7 or -) dialogue function.

To change an ETP replicate file's definition, enter the information in the fields, as described below.

Screen Field Description

Replicate File
DBID/FNR

Enter the database ID and file number of an existing replicate. If you enter a wild card in either the database ID or file number field, a window appears from which you can select a single replicate file definition for modification.

When the Modify Replicate File Definition screen is first displayed, you must either enter (or have already selected) a valid replicate file; otherwise, you cannot make entries in the rest of the fields. Once you have selected a replicate file and press Enter, you cannot change the file unless you either exit the screen and then re-enter it again, or perform the SAVE dialogue function.

Specify Y (yes, the default) under Verify FDT to verify the replicate file's Field Definition Table (FDT); otherwise, enter N (no).

To protect the replicate file from any accidental or unauthorized update by an application, you can define a password for the replicate file for ETP to use when applying transactions to the replicate file. The password is defined using Adabas Security.

Master file DBID/FNR This field displays the current master file when a valid replicate file is first entered. To change the master file for this replicate file, specify a database ID and file number of the new master file. If you enter a wild card for the database ID and/or file number, a list of the master files already defined is displayed. You can then select a master file from the displayed list.
Confirmation File FNR This field displays the current confirmation file when a replicate file is first entered. To change the confirmation file, enter the file number of an Adabas file that becomes the new confirmation file for the replicate file specified above. The confirmation file must be on the same database as the replicate file; a single confirmation file can be used for multiple replicate files.
Replication criterion
(ISN/Key)
  • Enter I (the default) in this field if the duplicate ISNs are to be used to identify corresponding records in the master and partially replicated file.

  • Enter K if a unique Adabas descriptor field has been defined as the distribution key for the master file.

Using duplicate ISNs (option I) is more efficient, but requires a complete Associator (ASSO) for the duplicate file, irrespective of the number of replicated records in the file being modified. Option K allows use of an ASSO subset, but causes additional calls to the replicated file's database.

When a distribution key has been defined for the replicate file and you wish to change or add a distribution key value, enter either FORWARD or + on the command line to display the screen for defining the distribution key values. See Defining Distribution Key Values for more information.
