Event Text makes Oracle GoldenGate detailed text available to operators using the Viewpoint event detail screen. This appendix provides instructions for installing and working with Event Text.
This appendix includes the following sections:
To install event text (assuming a default configuration of Viewpoint), issue the following commands.
TACL> VOLUME installation_volume_subvolume
TACL> RUN EMSINST
The EMSINST macro performs the steps described in the following section.
If your installation of Viewpoint differs from the default configuration, perform the following steps (Substitute appropriately for PATHMON process names, and so on.)
From TACL, enter the following:
TACL> VOLUME GGS TACL> FUP /IN EVCXFUP/ TACL> RUN EVCXLDO /IN EMSDTL/
Bring down the Viewpoint event detail server, as shown in these commands:
TACL> PATHCOM $ZVPT =FREEZE SERVER ZVPT-EVNT-DETL =STOP SERVER ZVPT-EVNT-DETL =STOP SERVER ZVPT-EVNT-DETL
If this is the first time that custom messages will be used on your system also perform the following assignment.
=ALTER SERVER ZVPT-EVNT-DETL, ASSIGN CUSTOM-DETAIL, \SYS.$SYSTEM.SYSTEM.EVENTCX =EXIT
If $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.EVENTCX already exists, enter:
TACL> FUP COPY EVENTCX, $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.EVENTCX, SHARE
Otherwise, enter:
TACL> FUP DUP EVENTCX, $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.EVENTCX
Bring up the Viewpoint event detail server, as follows:
TACL> PATHCOM $ZVPT =THAW SERVER ZVPT-EVNT-DETL =START SERVER ZVPT-EVNT-DETL =EXIT
You can customize message text by altering the event text within the EMSDTL file before running the EVCXLDO or EMSINST programs.
