Manage Distribution Paths

Once a new path is added, you can perform actions such as stop or pause a path, view reports and statistics, reposition the path, change its filtering, and delete a path, if required.

On the Overview page of the Distribution Server, click the Action button adjacent to the path. From the drop-down list, use the following path actions:

  • Details: Use this option to view details of the path. You can view the path information including the source and target. You can also edit the description of the path. Statistical data is also displayed including LCR Read from Trails, LCR Sent, LCR Filtered, DDL, Procedure, DML inserts, updates, and deletes, and so on. You can also update the App Options and TCP Options.

  • Stop: Use this option to stop a path. If the path isn’t started, the Start option is displayed rather than the Stop option. You can stop a target-initiated distribution path only from the Distribution Server. Once you stop the path, it'll not be avaiable on the Distrbution Server.

  • Stop (in the background): This option stops the path in the background, without engaging the interface. For this option also, the Start (in background) option is displayed incase the path isn’t started.

  • Delete: Use this option to delete a path. Click Yes on the confirmation screen to complete path deletion.

  • Reposition: Use this option to change the Source Sequence Number and Source RBA Offset

  • Change Filtering: Use this option to enter sharding, DML filtering, DDL filtering, Procedure filtering, and Tag filtering options.

Depending on the action you select, you can see the change in status at the bottom of the Overview page.
