     • Enter a Name.
     • Enter a Subdirectory, if you expect the Trail file to be in a location other than the default.
     • Select an Encryption profile. If an encryption profile wasn't created, the Local Wallet is selected by default.
     • For Begin, select the starting point for data processing:
       • Position in Log (default)

       • Custom Time
   • Trail Position:
     • Enter the Sequence Number.
     • Enter the RBA Offset.

       Depending on your target selection, you may have additional options to such as Streaming, Stage and Merge, and Staging locations.
   • Target Credentials:
     • Select a Domain.
     • Select an Alias within the specified Domain.
     • Select a Checkpoint Table. Leave the default selection or select the Checkpoint table you created for the target deployment.
     • Select the Max Threads Number (Coordinated Replicats only).
4. On the Managed Options page, complete the optional fields as needed, and then click Next:
   • Select a Profile Name, if one is available.
   • Enable Critical to deployment health.
   • Enable and configure Auto Start settings.
5. On the Parameter File page, you can add parameters to further configure your Replicat. For example:

   table source.table1;

   If using Coordinated Replicat, add TARGETDB LIBFILE libggjava.so SET property=/u02/Deployment/etc/conf/ogg/your_replicat_name.properties to the parameters file.

   Note
   
   

   GoldenGate uses Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) by default. Use SETENV to override the default setting for this Replicat process. This change doesn't apply to deployments. For example:

   setenv (TZ="US/Eastern")
   setenv (TZ="GMT+5")

6. On the Properties File page, review the properties and ensure that you set values for each property marked as #TODO, as needed.
   For information on this target's properties, see MongoDB Handler in the Oracle GoldenGate for Distributed Applications and Analytics guide.
7. Click Create and Run. If you click Create, then you can manually start the Replicat later from the Administration Service Home page.

   • If using Coordinated Replicat, add the following parameters on the second line of the Parameter File:

     TARGETDB LIBFILE libggjava.so SET property=/u02/Deployment/etc/conf/ogg/<replicat
           name>.properties

     Using coordinated replicat will result in multiple files created.

     If omitted, you will encounter the following error:

     OGG-01091 Oracle GoldenGate Delivery, RSNOW.prm: Unable to open file
           "/u02/Deployment/etc/conf/ogg/<replicat name>001.properties" (error 2, No such file or
           directory).

   • GoldenGate uses Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) by default. Use SETENV to override the default setting. For example:

     setenv (TZ="US/Eastern")
     setenv (TZ="GMT+5")
