This chapter illustrates an example of a single-source heterogeneous replication environment that can be constructed using Streams, as well as the tasks required to add new objects and databases to such an environment.
This chapter contains these topics:
Overview of the Single-Source Heterogeneous Replication Example
Add a Database to an Existing Streams Replication Environment
This example illustrates using Streams to replicate data between four databases. The environment is heterogeneous because three of the databases are Oracle databases and one is a Sybase database. DML and DDL changes made to tables in the hr
schema at the dbs1.net
Oracle database are captured and propagated to the other two Oracle databases. Only DML changes are captured and propagated to the dbs4.net
database, because an apply process cannot apply DDL changes to a non-Oracle database. Changes to the hr
schema occur only at dbs1.net
. The hr
schema is read-only at the other databases in the environment.
Figure 19-1 provides an overview of the environment.
Figure 19-1 Sample Environment that Shares Data from a Single Source Database
As illustrated in Figure 19-1, dbs1.net
contains the following tables in the hr
schema:
countries
departments
employees
job_history
jobs
locations
regions
This example uses directed networks, which means that captured changes at a source database are propagated to another database through one or more intermediate databases. Here, the dbs1.net
database propagates changes to the dbs3.net
database through the intermediate database dbs2.net
. This configuration is an example of queue forwarding in a directed network. Also, the dbs1.net
database propagates changes to the dbs2.net
database, which applies the changes directly to the dbs4.net
database through a gateway.
Some of the databases in the environment do not have certain tables. If the database is not an intermediate database for a table and the database does not contain the table, then changes to the table do not need to be propagated to that database. For example, the departments
, employees
, job_history
, and jobs
tables do not exist at dbs3.net
. Therefore, dbs2.net
does not propagate changes to these tables to dbs3.net
.
In this example, Streams is used to perform the following series of actions:
The capture process captures DML and DDL changes for all of the tables in the hr
schema and enqueues them into a queue at the dbs1.net
database. In this example, changes to only four of the seven tables are propagated to destination databases, but in the example that illustrates "Add Objects to an Existing Streams Replication Environment", the remaining tables in the hr
schema are added to a destination database.
The dbs1.net
database propagates these changes in the form of messages to a queue at dbs2.net
.
At dbs2.net
, DML changes to the jobs
table are transformed into DML changes for the assignments
table (which is a direct mapping of jobs
) and then applied. Changes to other tables in the hr
schema are not applied at dbs2.net
.
Because the queue at dbs3.net
receives changes from the queue at dbs2.net
that originated in countries
, locations
, and regions
tables at dbs1.net
, these changes are propagated from dbs2.net
to dbs3.net
. This configuration is an example of directed networks.
The apply process at dbs3.net
applies changes to the countries
, locations
, and regions
tables.
Because dbs4.net
, a Sybase database, receives changes from the queue at dbs2.net
to the jobs
table that originated at dbs1.net
, these changes are applied remotely from dbs2.net
using the dbs4.net
database link through a gateway. This configuration is an example of heterogeneous support.
The following prerequisites must be completed before you begin the example in this chapter.
Set the following initialization parameters to the values indicated for all databases in the environment:
GLOBAL_NAMES
: This parameter must be set to true
at each database that is participating in your Streams environment.
JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES
: This parameter must be set to at least 2
at each database that is propagating messages in your Streams environment. It should be set to the same value as the maximum number of jobs that can run simultaneously plus one. In this example, dbs1.net
and dbs2.net
propagate messages. So, JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES
must be set to at least 2
at these databases.
COMPATIBLE
: This parameter must be set to 10.2.0
or higher.
STREAMS_POOL_SIZE
: Optionally set this parameter to an appropriate value for each database in the environment. This parameter specifies the size of the Streams pool. The Streams pool stores messages in a buffered queue and is used for internal communications during parallel capture and apply. When the SGA_TARGET
initialization parameter is set to a nonzero value, the Streams pool size is managed by Automatic Shared Memory Management.
See Also:
Oracle Streams Concepts and Administration for information about other initialization parameters that are important in a Streams environmentAny database producing changes that will be captured must be running in ARCHIVELOG
mode. In this example, changes are produced at dbs1.net
, and so dbs1.net
must be running in ARCHIVELOG
mode.

This examples creates a new user to function as the Streams administrator (strmadmin
) at each database and prompts you for the tablespace you want to use for this user's data. Before you start this example, either create a new tablespace or identify an existing tablespace for the Streams administrator to use at each database. The Streams administrator should not use the SYSTEM
tablespace.
Complete the following steps to set up users and create queues and database links for a Streams replication environment that includes three Oracle databases and one Sybase database.

package to perform a network import of these database objects directly from the dbs1.net
database. Because this example performs a network import, no dump file is required.
Alternatively, you can perform an export at the source database dbs1.net
, transfer the export dump file to the destination database dbs3.net
, and then import the export dump file at the destination database. In this case, the database link created in this step is not required.

*/ SET ECHO OFF SPOOL OFF /*************************** END OF SCRIPT ******************************/
This example illustrates two ways to accomplish the replication of the tables in the hr
schema using Streams.
"Simple Configuration for Sharing Data from a Single Database" demonstrates a simple way to configure the environment. This example uses the DBMS_STREAMS_ADM
package to create a capture process, propagations, and apply processes, as well as the rule sets associated with them. Using the DBMS_STREAMS_ADM
package is the simplest way to configure a Streams environment.
"Flexible Configuration for Sharing Data from a Single Database" demonstrates a more flexible way to configure this environment. This example uses the DBMS_CAPTURE_ADM
package to create a capture process, the DBMS_PROPAGATION_ADM
package to create propagations, and the DBMS_APPLY_ADM
package to create apply processes. Also, this example uses the DBMS_RULES_ADM
package to create and populate the rule sets associated with these capture processes, propagations, and apply processes. Using these packages, instead of the DBMS_STREAMS_ADM
package, provides more configuration options and flexibility.
Note:
These examples illustrate two different ways to configure the same Streams environment. Therefore, you should run only one of the examples for a particular distributed database system. Otherwise, errors stating that objects already exist will result.Complete the following steps to specify the capture, propagation, and apply definitions using primarily the DBMS_STEAMS_ADM
package.
Set the Instantiation SCN for the Existing Tables at Other Databases
Specify hr as the Apply User for the Apply Process at dbs3.net
Grant the hr User Execute Privilege on the Apply Process Rule Set

Step 3 Configure the Capture Process at dbs1.net
Configure the capture process to capture changes to the entire hr
schema at dbs1.net
. This step specifies that changes to the tables in the specified schema are captured by the capture process and enqueued into the specified queue.
This step also prepares the hr
schema for instantiation and enables supplemental logging for any primary key, unique key, bitmap index, and foreign key columns in the tables in this schema. Supplemental logging places additional information in the redo log for changes made to tables. The apply process needs this extra information to perform certain operations, such as unique row identification and conflict resolution. Because dbs1.net
is the only database where changes are captured in this environment, it is the only database where you must specify supplemental logging for the tables in the hr
schema.

Step 4 Set the Instantiation SCN for the Existing Tables at Other Databases
In this example, the hr.jobs
table already exists at dbs2.net
and dbs4.net
. At dbs2.net
, this table is named assignments
, but it has the same shape and data as the jobs
table at dbs1.net
. Also, in this example, dbs4.net
is a Sybase database. All of the other tables in the Streams environment are instantiated at the other destination databases using Data Pump import.
Because the hr.jobs
table already exists at dbs2.net
and dbs4.net
, this example uses the GET_SYSTEM_CHANGE_NUMBER
function in the DBMS_FLASHBACK
package at dbs1.net
to obtain the current SCN for the database. This SCN is used at dbs2.net
to run the SET_TABLE_INSTANTIATION_SCN
procedure in the DBMS_APPLY_ADM
package. Running this procedure twice sets the instantiation SCN for the hr.jobs
table at dbs2.net
and dbs4.net
.
The SET_TABLE_INSTANTIATION_SCN
procedure controls which LCRs for a table are ignored by an apply process and which LCRs for a table are applied by an apply process. If the commit SCN of an LCR for a table from a source database is less than or equal to the instantiation SCN for that table at a destination database, then the apply process at the destination database discards the LCR. Otherwise, the apply process applies the LCR.
In this example, both of the apply processes at dbs2.net
will apply transactions to the hr.jobs
table with SCNs that were committed after SCN obtained in this step.
Note:
This example assumes that the contents of thehr.jobs
table at dbs1.net
, dbs2.net
(as hr.assignments
), and dbs4.net
are consistent when you complete this step. You might want to lock the table at each database while you complete this step to ensure consistency.*/ DECLARE iscn NUMBER; -- Variable to hold instantiation SCN value BEGIN iscn := DBMS_FLASHBACK.GET_SYSTEM_CHANGE_NUMBER(); DBMS_APPLY_ADM.SET_TABLE_INSTANTIATION_SCN@DBS2.NET( source_object_name => 'hr.jobs', source_database_name => 'dbs1.net', instantiation_scn => iscn); DBMS_APPLY_ADM.SET_TABLE_INSTANTIATION_SCN@DBS2.NET( source_object_name => 'hr.jobs', source_database_name => 'dbs1.net', instantiation_scn => iscn, apply_database_link => 'dbs4.net'); END; / /*
Step 5 Instantiate the dbs1.net Tables at dbs3.net
This example performs a network Data Pump import of the following tables:
hr.countries
hr.locations
hr.regions
A network import means that Data Pump imports these tables from dbs1.net
without using an export dump file.

Step 4 Prepare the hr Schema at dbs1.net for Instantiation
While still connected as the Streams administrator at dbs1.net
, prepare the hr
schema at dbs1.net
for instantiation at dbs3.net
. This step marks the lowest SCN of the tables in the schema for instantiation. SCNs subsequent to the lowest SCN can be used for instantiation.
This step also enables supplemental logging for any primary key, unique key, bitmap index, and foreign key columns in the tables in the hr
schema. Supplemental logging places additional information in the redo log for changes made to tables. The apply process needs this extra information to perform certain operations, such as unique row identification and conflict resolution. Because dbs1.net
is the only database where changes are captured in this environment, it is the only database where you must specify supplemental logging for the tables in the hr
schema.
Note:
This step is not required in the "Simple Configuration for Sharing Data from a Single Database". In that example, when theADD_SCHEMA_RULES
procedure in the DBMS_STREAMS_ADM
package is run in Step 3, the PREPARE_SCHEMA_INSTANTIATION
procedure in the DBMS_CAPTURE_ADM
package is run automatically for the hr
schema.See Also:
*/ BEGIN DBMS_CAPTURE_ADM.PREPARE_SCHEMA_INSTANTIATION( schema_name => 'hr', supplemental_logging => 'keys'); END; / /*
Step 5 Set the Instantiation SCN for the Existing Tables at Other Databases
In this example, the hr.jobs
table already exists at dbs2.net
and dbs4.net
. At dbs2.net
, this table is named assignments
, but it has the same shape and data as the jobs
table at dbs1.net
. Also, in this example, dbs4.net
is a Sybase database. All of the other tables in the Streams environment are instantiated at the other destination databases using Data Pump import.
Because the hr.jobs
table already exists at dbs2.net
and dbs4.net
, this example uses the GET_SYSTEM_CHANGE_NUMBER
function in the DBMS_FLASHBACK
package at dbs1.net
to obtain the current SCN for the database. This SCN is used at dbs2.net
to run the SET_TABLE_INSTANTIATION_SCN
procedure in the DBMS_APPLY_ADM
package. Running this procedure twice sets the instantiation SCN for the hr.jobs
table at dbs2.net
and dbs4.net
.
The SET_TABLE_INSTANTIATION_SCN
procedure controls which LCRs for a table are ignored by an apply process and which LCRs for a table are applied by an apply process. If the commit SCN of an LCR for a table from a source database is less than or equal to the instantiation SCN for that table at a destination database, then the apply process at the destination database discards the LCR. Otherwise, the apply process applies the LCR.
In this example, both of the apply processes at dbs2.net
will apply transactions to the hr.jobs
table with SCNs that were committed after SCN obtained in this step.
Note:
This example assumes that the contents of thehr.jobs
table at dbs1.net
, dbs2.net
(as hr.assignments
), and dbs4.net
are consistent when you complete this step. You might want to lock the table at each database while you complete this step to ensure consistency.*/ DECLARE iscn NUMBER; -- Variable to hold instantiation SCN value BEGIN iscn := DBMS_FLASHBACK.GET_SYSTEM_CHANGE_NUMBER(); DBMS_APPLY_ADM.SET_TABLE_INSTANTIATION_SCN@DBS2.NET( source_object_name => 'hr.jobs', source_database_name => 'dbs1.net', instantiation_scn => iscn); DBMS_APPLY_ADM.SET_TABLE_INSTANTIATION_SCN@DBS2.NET( source_object_name => 'hr.jobs', source_database_name => 'dbs1.net', instantiation_scn => iscn, apply_database_link => 'dbs4.net'); END; /
/*
Step 6 Instantiate the dbs1.net Tables at dbs3.net
This example performs a network Data Pump import of the following tables:
hr.countries
hr.locations
hr.regions
A network import means that Data Pump imports these tables from dbs1.net
without using an export dump file.

You can now make DML and DDL changes to specific tables at dbs1.net
and see these changes replicated to the other databases in the environment based on the rules you configured for the Streams processes and propagations in this environment.
See Also:
"Make DML and DDL Changes to Tables in the hr Schema" for examples of changes that are replicated in this environment/*************************** END OF SCRIPT ******************************/
After completing either of the examples described in "Example Scripts for Sharing Data from One Database", you can make DML and DDL changes to the tables in the hr
schema at the dbs1.net
database. These changes will be replicated to the other databases in the environment based on the rules you configured for Streams processes and propagations. You can check the other databases to see that the changes have been replicated.
For example, complete the following steps to make DML changes to the hr.jobs
and hr.locations
tables at dbs1.net
. You can also make a DDL change to the hr.locations
table at dbs1.net
.
After you make these changes, you can query the hr.assignments
table at dbs2.net
to see that the DML change you made to this table at dbs1.net
has been replicated. Remember that a rule-based transformation configured for the apply process at dbs2.net
transforms DML changes to the hr.jobs
table into DML changes to the hr.assignments
table. You can also query the hr.locations
table at dbs3.net
to see that the DML and DDL changes you made to this table at dbs1.net
have been replicated.
Step 1 Make DML and DDL Changes to Tables in the hr Schema
Make the following changes:
CONNECT hr/hr@dbs1.net UPDATE hr.jobs SET max_salary=10000 WHERE job_id='MK_REP'; COMMIT; INSERT INTO hr.locations VALUES( 3300, '521 Ralston Avenue', '94002', 'Belmont', 'CA', 'US'); COMMIT; ALTER TABLE hr.locations RENAME COLUMN state_province TO state_or_province;
Step 2 Query the hr.assignments Table at dbs2.net
After some time passes to allow for capture, propagation, and apply of the changes performed the previous step, run the following query to confirm that the UPDATE
change made to the hr.jobs
table at dbs1.net
has been applied to the hr.assignments
table at dbs2.net
.
CONNECT hr/hr@dbs2.net SELECT max_salary FROM hr.assignments WHERE job_id='MK_REP';
You should see 10000
for the value of the max_salary
.
Step 3 Query and Describe the hr.locations Table at dbs3.net
Run the following query to confirm that the INSERT
change made to the hr.locations
table at dbs1.net
has been applied at dbs3.net
.
CONNECT hr/hr@dbs3.net SELECT * FROM hr.locations WHERE location_id=3300;
You should see the row inserted into the hr.locations
table at dbs1.net
in the previous step.
Next, describe the hr.locations
table at to confirm that the ALTER
TABLE
change was propagated and applied correctly.
DESC hr.locations
The fifth column in the table should be state_or_province
.
This example extends the Streams environment configured in the previous sections by adding replicated objects to an existing database. To complete this example, you must have completed the tasks in one of the previous examples in this chapter.
This example will add the following tables to the hr
schema in the dbs3.net
database:
departments
employees
job_history
jobs
When you complete this example, Streams processes changes to these tables with the following series of actions:
The capture process captures changes at dbs1.net
and enqueues them at dbs1.net
.
A propagation propagates changes from the queue at dbs1.net
to the queue at dbs2.net
.
A propagation propagates changes from the queue at dbs2.net
to the queue at dbs3.net
.
The apply process at dbs3.net
applies the changes at dbs3.net
.
When you complete this example, the hr
schema at the dbs3.net
database will have all of its original tables, because the countries
, locations
, and regions
tables were instantiated at dbs3.net
in the previous section.
Figure 19-2 provides an overview of the environment with the added tables.

Step 2 Query the hr.employees Table at dbs3.net
After some time passes to allow for capture, propagation, and apply of the change performed in the previous step, run the following query to confirm that the UPDATE
change made to the hr.employees
table at dbs1.net

This example extends the Streams environment configured in the previous sections by adding an additional database to the existing configuration. In this example, an existing Oracle database named dbs5.net
is added to receive changes to the entire hr
schema from the queue at dbs2.net
.
Figure 19-3 provides an overview of the environment with the added database.
Figure 19-3 Adding the dbs5.net Oracle Database to the Environment
To complete this example, you must meet the following prerequisites:
The dbs5.net
database must exist.
The dbs2.net
and dbs5.net
databases must be able to communicate with each other through Oracle Net.
The dbs5.net
and dbs1.net
databases must be able to communicate with each other through Oracle Net (for optional Data Pump network instantiation).
You must have completed the tasks in the previous examples in this chapter.
The "Prerequisites" must be met if you want the entire Streams environment to work properly.
This examples creates a new user to function as the Streams administrator (strmadmin
) at the dbs5.net
database and prompts you for the tablespace you want to use for this user's data. Before you start this example, either create a new tablespace or identify an existing tablespace for the Streams administrator to use at the dbs5.net
database. The Streams administrator should not use the SYSTEM
tablespace.
Complete the following steps to add dbs5.net
to the Streams environment.
Specify hr as the Apply User for the Apply Process at dbs5.net
Grant the hr User Execute Privilege on the Apply Process Rule Set

data dictionary view at the import database.

After completing the examples described in the "Add a Database to an Existing Streams Replication Environment" section, you can make DML and DDL changes to the tables in the hr
schema at the dbs1.net
database. These changes will be replicated to dbs5.net
. You can check these tables at dbs5.net
to see that the changes have been replicated.
For example, complete the following steps to make a DML change to the hr.departments
table at dbs1.net
. Next, query the hr.departments
table at dbs5.net
to see that the change has been replicated.
Step 1 Make a DML Change to the hr.departments Table
Make the following change:
CONNECT hr/hr@dbs1.net UPDATE hr.departments SET location_id=2400 WHERE department_id=270; COMMIT;
Step 2 Query the hr.departments Table at dbs5.net
After some time passes to allow for capture, propagation, and apply of the change performed in the previous step, run the following query to confirm that the UPDATE
change made to the hr.departments
table at dbs1.net
has been applied to the hr.departments
table at dbs5.net
.
CONNECT hr/hr@dbs5.net SELECT location_id FROM hr.departments WHERE department_id=270;
You should see 2400
for the value of the location_id
.
