Emulates the Replication Server ra_marker system function, placing a marker object in the Oracle redo log.
ra_marker command_tag
A varchar(255) value that contains information used for subscription materialization.
ra_marker ‘activate subscription 309 0 with suspension’
This command places a marker object in the Sybase Replication Agent transaction log that invokes the Replication Server activate subscription command.
When ra_marker is invoked, the Sybase Replication Agent inserts a row in a shadow table marked for replication. The replicated transaction is sent as a marker object to the primary Replication Server.
The ra_marker command returns an error message if the Sybase Replication Agent transaction log does not exist.
The ra_marker command is valid when the Sybase Replication Agent instance is in either Admin or Replicating state.
For more information about the Replication Server ra_marker system function, refer to the Replication Server Administration Guide and Sybase Replication Agent Reference Manual.
