Java columns pass through the replication system as either of two Replication Server datatypes:
As rawobject, in which the information is stored in the database in a separate location in the same way that image data is stored. The base datatype of rawobject is image. rawobject is the default datatype for Java columns in Replication Server.
As rawobject in row, in which the information is stored in the database on consecutive data pages allocated to the table in the same way that char data is stored. The base datatype of rawobject in row is varbinary.
rawobject and rawobject in row datatypes are compatible only with their base datatypes. They are not compatible with each other. That is, you cannot replicate rawobject data to rawobject in row data or vice versa. See also “Binary datatypes”.
The rs_subcmp reconciliation utility treats Java datatypes as their base datatypes.
