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

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.
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.

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

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
