This chapter illustrates an example of a simple single-source replication environment that can be constructed using Streams.
This chapter contains these topics:
The example in this chapter illustrates using Streams to replicate data in one table between two databases. A capture process captures data manipulation language (DML) and data definition language (DDL) changes made to the jobs table in the hr schema at the str1.net Oracle database, and a propagation propagates these changes to the str2.net Oracle database. Next, an apply process applies these changes at the str2.net database. This example assumes that the hr.jobs table is read-only at the str2.net database.
Figure 18-1 provides an overview of the environment.
Figure 18-1 Simple Example that Shares Data from a Single-Source Database
The following prerequisites must be completed before you begin the example in this chapter.
Set the following initialization parameters to the values indicated:
GLOBAL_NAMES: This parameter must be set to true at each database that is participating in your Streams environment.
JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES: This parameter must be set to at least 2 at each database that is propagating messages in your Streams environment. It should be set to the same value as the maximum number of jobs that can run simultaneously plus one. In this example, str1.net propagates messages. So, JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES must be set to at least 2 at str1.net.
COMPATIBLE: This parameter must be set to 10.2.0 or higher at each database that is participating in your Streams environment.
STREAMS_POOL_SIZE: Optionally set this parameter to an appropriate value for each database in the environment. This parameter specifies the size of the Streams pool. The Streams pool stores messages in a buffered queue and is used for internal communications during parallel capture and apply. When the SGA_TARGET initialization parameter is set to a nonzero value, the Streams pool size is managed by Automatic Shared Memory Management.

Oracle Streams Concepts and Administration for information about other initialization parameters that are important in a Streams environmentAny database producing changes that will be captured must be running in ARCHIVELOG mode. In this example, changes are produced at str1.net, and so str1.net must be running in ARCHIVELOG mode.

ARCHIVELOG modeConfigure your network and Oracle Net so that the str1.net database can communicate with the str2.net database.
This example creates a new user to function as the Streams administrator (strmadmin) at each database and prompts you for the tablespace you want to use for this user's data. Before you start this example, either create a new tablespace or identify an existing tablespace for the Streams administrator to use at each database. The Streams administrator should not use the SYSTEM tablespace.
Complete the following steps to set up users and create queues and database links for a Streams replication environment that includes two Oracle databases.

Step 3 Configure the Capture Process at str1.net
Configure the capture process to capture changes to the hr.jobs table at str1.net. This step specifies that changes to this table are captured by the capture process and enqueued into the specified queue.
This step also prepares the hr.jobs table for instantiation and enables supplemental logging for any primary key, unique key, bitmap index, and foreign key columns in this table. Supplemental logging places additional information in the redo log for changes made to tables. The apply process needs this extra information to perform certain operations, such as unique row identification and conflict resolution. Because str1.net is the only database where changes are captured in this environment, it is the only database where supplemental logging must be enabled for the hr.jobs table.

/*
Step 4 Set the Instantiation SCN for the hr.jobs Table at str2.net
This example assumes that the hr.jobs table exists at both the str1.net database and the str2.net database, and that this table is synchronized at these databases. Because the hr.jobs table already exists at str2.net, this example uses the GET_SYSTEM_CHANGE_NUMBER function in the DBMS_FLASHBACK package at str1.net to obtain the current SCN for the source database. This SCN is used at str2.net to run the SET_TABLE_INSTANTIATION_SCN procedure in the DBMS_APPLY_ADM package. Running this procedure sets the instantiation SCN for the hr.jobs table at str2.net.
The SET_TABLE_INSTANTIATION_SCN procedure controls which LCRs for a table are ignored by an apply process and which LCRs for a table are applied by an apply process. If the commit SCN of an LCR for a table from a source database is less than or equal to the instantiation SCN for that table at a destination database, then the apply process at the destination database discards the LCR. Otherwise, the apply process applies the LCR.
In this example, both of the apply process at str2.net will apply transactions to the hr.jobs table with SCNs that were committed after SCN obtained in this step.
Note:
This example assumes that the contents of thehr.jobs table at str1.net and str2.net are consistent when you complete this step. Make sure there is no activity on this table while the instantiation SCN is being set. You might want to lock the table at each database while you complete this step to ensure consistency. If the table does not exist at the destination database, then you can use export/import for instantiation.*/

Complete the following steps to make DML and DDL changes to the hr.jobs table at str1.net and then confirm that the changes were captured at str1.net, propagated from str1.net to str2.net, and applied to the hr.jobs table at str2.net.
Step 1 Make Changes to hr.jobs at str1.net
Make the following changes to the hr.jobs table.
CONNECT hr/hr@str1.net UPDATE hr.jobs SET max_salary=9545 WHERE job_id='PR_REP'; COMMIT; ALTER TABLE hr.jobs ADD(duties VARCHAR2(4000));
Step 2 Query and Describe the hr.jobs Table at str2.net
After some time passes to allow for capture, propagation, and apply of the changes performed in the previous step, run the following query to confirm that the UPDATE change was propagated and applied at str2.net:
CONNECT hr/hr@str2.net SELECT * FROM hr.jobs WHERE job_id='PR_REP';
The value in the max_salary column should be 9545.
Next, describe the hr.jobs table to confirm that the ALTER TABLE change was propagated and applied at str2.net:
DESC hr.jobs
The duties column should be the last column.
