To temporarily stop replication for a marked table (for example, when maintenance operations are performed in the primary database), you can disable replication for a marked table without affecting replication for other tables in the primary database. Then, when you are ready to resume replication from that table, you can enable replication for that table without affecting other tables in the database.
To replicate transactions that affect the data in a table, that table must be marked for replication, and replication must be enabled for the marked table.
Replication Agent for Oracle has articles in theRASD. An article is an object that has a one-to-one relationship to the table and has a marked indicator.
When replication is disabled for a marked object, the marking infrastructure remains in place, but no transactions for that object are sent to Replication Server.
