EDIT PARAMS

Use EDIT PARAMS to create or change a parameter file. By default, the editor is set with your EDITOR environment variable. You can change the default editor with the SET EDITOR command.

Admin Client Syntax

EDIT PARAMS file_name

group_name

Opens a parameter file for the specified Extract or Replicat group.

file_name

Opens the specified file. When you create a parameter file with EDIT PARAMS, it is saved to a sub-directory of the Oracle GoldenGate directory. You can create a parameter file in a directory other than the default by specifying the full path name, but you must also specify the full path name with the PARAMS option of the ADD EXTRACT or ADD REPLICAT command when you create the process group.

Caution:

Use this command to view or edit an existing parameter file that is in a character set of the local operating system. If you use the CHARSET option with non-local operating system character set, then contents may become corrupted.
