Prepare the Mining Database to Archive its Local Redo

To prepare the mining database to archive its local redo:

  1. The downstream mining database must be in archive log mode. You can do this by issuing the following DDL.
    STARTUP MOUNT; ALTER DATABASE ARCHIVELOG; ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
  2. At the downstream mining database, set log_archive_dest_1 to archive local redo.
    ALTER SYSTEM SET LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1='LOCATION=/home/arc_dest/local
    VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILE, PRIMARY_ROLE)'
  3. Enable log_archive_dest_1.
    ALTER SYSTEM SET LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_1=ENABLE
  4. Start Extract.
    START EXTRACT ext1

Note:

You can create multiple Extracts running in real-time Extract mode in the downstream mining database, as long as they all are capturing data from the same source database, such as capturing changes for database DBMS1 in the preceding example.
