Database resynchronization includes these steps described in detail in the sections that follow:
Instructing Replication Server to be in resync mode. While in resync mode, Replication Server skips transactions and purges replication data from replication queues in anticipation of the replicate database being repopulated from a dump taken from the primary database or trusted source.
Sending a resync marker to Replication Server to indicate that a resynchronization effort is in progress
Obtaining a dump from the primary database.
When Replication Server detects a dump marker that indicates the completion of the primary database dump, Replication Server stops skipping transactions and can determine which transactions to apply to the replicate database.
Applying the dump to the replicate database.
Resuming replication.
See “Database resynchronization scenario” to use these steps.
