Row Information Spooling Files
Row Information Spooling Files
Row Information Spooling logs the following types of information in RIS
files:
■
Individual aborted row errors
■
Replication exceptions (such as when a row is converted by Enterprise Replication from insert to update, or from update to insert, and
so on)
■
Special SPL routine return codes, as defined by the application (if an
SPL routine is called to resolve a conflict)
Preparing to Use RIS
Failed transactions are not automatically recorded in RIS files.
To collect RIS information
1.
Create a directory for Enterprise Replication to store RIS files.
If you have conflict resolution enabled, create the directory on all
participating replication systems.
For more information, see “Creating ATS and RIS Directories” on
page 4-15.
2.
When you define a server for Enterprise Replication, specify the
location of the RIS directory you created in step 1.
To do this, include the --ris option with the cdr define server
command.
If you do not specify an RIS directory:
UNIX
■
WIN NT/2000
■
Enterprise Replication stores the RIS files in the /tmp directory. ♦
Enterprise Replication stores the RIS files in the \tmp directory
of the drive that contains %INFORMIXDIR%. ♦
If the default directory does not exist, Enterprise Replication returns
an error.
For more information, see “Creating ATS and RIS Directories” on
page 4-15.
