Setting the Session Character Set

The GGSCI, Extract and Replicat processes use a session character set when connecting to the database. For MySQL, the session character set is taken from the SESSIONCHARSET option of SOURCEDB and TARGETDB. Make certain you specify a session character set in one of these ways when you configure Oracle GoldenGate.
