SYSKEYCONVERT

Valid for

Extract

Description

Use SYSKEYCONVERT for direct file extraction only. SYSKEYCONVERT specifies the format of the syskey in the Oracle GoldenGate output for entry-sequenced and ACI files. Use this parameter only when you are trickling data throughout the day to the target system with RMTBATCH and the records are variable length (for example, the ACI BASE24 Super files).

Note:

If SYSKEYCONVERT is specified, you cannot mix RMTBATCH activity with standard extraction of data for replication.

Default

The Guardian file position

Syntax

SYSKEYCONVERT {USEBYTEPOSITION | USERECORDNUMBER}

USEBYTEPOSITION: Extract uses a byte count from the start of the file as if the input file was an unstructured file. The first byte position is zero. Use this option for the ACI Super files.
USERECORDNUMBER: Extract uses a record number from the start of the file of the record. The first record is zero.
