Conventions

The following text conventions are used in this document:

Convention	Meaning
boldface	Boldface type indicates graphical user interface elements associated with an action, such as "From the File menu, select Save." Boldface also is used for terms defined in text or in the glossary.
italic `italic`	Italic type indicates placeholder variables for which you supply particular values, such as in the parameter statement: `TABLE` `table_name`. Italic type also is used for book titles and emphasis.
`monospace` `MONOSPACE`	Monospace type indicates code components such as user exits and scripts; the names of files and database objects; URL paths; and input and output text that appears on the screen. Uppercase monospace type is generally used to represent the names of Oracle GoldenGate parameters, commands, and user-configurable functions, as well as SQL commands and keywords.
UPPERCASE	Uppercase in the regular text font indicates the name of a utility unless the name is intended to be a specific case.
{ }	Braces within syntax enclose a set of options that are separated by pipe symbols, one of which must be selected, for example: `{option1` `\|` `option2` `\|` `option3}`.
[ ]	Brackets within syntax indicate an optional element. For example in this syntax, the `SAVE` clause is optional: `CLEANUP REPLICAT` `group_name` `[, SAVE` `count]`. Multiple options within an optional element are separated by a pipe symbol, for example: `[option1` `\|` `option2]`.
