This section describes administration and maintenance procedures for the following Mirror Replication Agent variants:
Mirror Replication Agent for ASE
Mirror Replication Agent for Oracle
The Mirror Replication Agent for ASE uses the native database transaction log to capture replicated transactions. The Mirror Replication Agent maintains a connection with the primary data server to reserve the logscan context, which gives it control of the secondary truncation point in the primary database transaction log.
The Mirror Replication Agent for Oracle uses the native Oracle log to capture replicated transactions. The objects it creates in the primary database facilitate stored procedure replication. These database objects require no routine maintenance.
Depending on the configuration, Mirror Replication Agent may also access archived transactions logs (default) or may process only online transaction logs. For information about redo log and archive log files, see the Mirror Replication Agent Primary Database Guide.
The following sections describe each Mirror Replication Agent administration and maintenance task in detail:
