Resetting the Primary Oracle Database for Replication
In
a test environment, you may occasionally need to reset the replication environment.
Log in to the Replication Agent and suspend replication:
1> suspend
2> go
Archive all current redo log data:
ra_locator move_truncpt
Reinitialize Replication Agent, which refreshes the Replication Agent repository rather than overwriting it:
ra_admin refresh
Note:
If you prefer to delete and replace all the information
in the Replication Agent repository, issue the ra_admin deinit, force command followed by a normal
ra_admin init command (without
the force option).
Reset the locator stored in Replication Server:
isql -Usa -Psa_pass -SSAMPLE_RS
connect
go
rs_zeroltm pds, pdb
go
exit
go
You
see:
Locator has been reset to zero.
(return status = 0)
Resume replication with the Replication Agent resume
command:
