ra_standby

(Oracle only) Determines whether or not Replication Agent functions in standby mode.

Note: This parameter is available only for Oracle.

Default

false

true – Replication Agent functions in standby mode.

false – Replication Agent functions in normal mode.

In standby mode, Replication Agent:
- scans the transaction log and keeps the Replication Agent System Database (RASD) current.
- does not send any Log Transfer Language (LTL) to Replication Server.
- continues to perform log truncation.
To function in standby mode, Replication Agent should:
- have the rs_source_ds and rs_source_db parameters configured as physical connections to Replication Server.
- enable or disable the replication of DDL statements as desired using the pdb_setrep_ddl command.
- set the pdb_auto_create_repdefs, pdb_dflt_column_repl, pdb_dflt_object_repl, and pdb_automark_tables parameters to true.
