Create a configuration file

To configure SharePlex to replicate data, you create a configuration file. This is an ASCII text file in which you specify:

  • The data that you want SharePlex to replicate, including any filtering or partitioning of rows or columns
  • The target name and type
  • The system (and database if applicable) to which the data must be delivered.

Only a SharePlex Administrator or operator has the authority to create a configuration file.

When your configuration file is completed, you activate the configuration with the activate config command to begin replication. For more information, see Start replication on your production systems.

You can create a configuration file by hand in sp_ctrl or, if your data structure supports it, you can automate the creation of a configuration file with a script.

Create the configuration file on the system from which data is to be replicated, typically the source system, but strategies such as active-active replication require configuration files on more than one system.

To create a configuration file in sp_ctrl

  1. Run sp_ctrl from the bin sub-directory of the SharePlex product directory.

  2. In sp_ctrl, issue the create config command.

    sp_ctrl> create config config_name

    This command opens a file in the default text editor that is set for the operating system. Note: You can change the default editor that sp_ctrl uses. For more information, see Set a default editor for sp_ctrl.

  3. Complete the configuration file. For more information, see Structure of a configuration file.

    Important! All configurations must reside in the config sub-directory of the SharePlex variable-data directory. Configuration files outside this directory cannot be activated. SharePlex places configurations in this directory by default when you create them through the sp_ctrl interface with the create config command. If you create the configuration directly through a text editor, make certain to save it to the config sub-directory.

To build a configuration file with a script

Note: Valid for Oracle only

SharePlex provides the following scripts that can be used to automate the building of your configuration file if the source and target object names are identical. These scripts support Oracle Database source and targets only.

Option Description To get more information
config.sql Builds a configuration file that includes all tables and sequences that are in the database. Source and target object names must be identical. See Configuration Scripts in the SharePlex Reference Guide.
build_config.sql Builds a configuration file that includes all tables in a schema. Source and target object names must be identical. See Configuration Scripts in the SharePlex Reference Guide.

Structure of a configuration file

A basic configuration file looks like the following:

# comment: basic SharePlex configuration file

datasource_specification

#source specification

target specification

routing map

source_owner.object1

target_owner.object1

routing_map

source_owner.object2

target_owner.object2

routing_map

source_owner.object3

target_owner.object3

routing_map

The basic components of a configuration file are as follows.

Component Description Syntax examples
# Comments Lines that describe the file or provide other information about the contents to viewers, but are not used by SharePlex. Precede each comment line with a pound (#) sign. Comments may be entered anywhere in the configuration file. # This is a comment.
Datasource specification

Syntax that specifies the source database. This component must always be the first non-commented line of a configuration file. It has the following syntax elements, all on the same line with no spaces:

Datasource:o.SID

Source specification

The fully qualified name of a supported source object, in the form of owner.object. The owner can be a schema or a database, depending on how the database stores objects logically. See:

How to qualify object names

How to specify case-sensitive names

You can use wildcards to specify multiple objects. Owner names cannot be wildcarded. For more information, see Use Wildcards to specify multiple objects.

src_owner.table

src_owner.sequence

Target specification

The target to which the replicated data is applied. Targets supported by SharePlex are:

tgt_owner.table

tgt_owner.sequence

!file[:tgt_owner.table]

!jms[:tgt_owner.table]

!kafka[:tgt_owner.table]

!cdc:tgt_owner.table

Routing map

One or more routes that send the data to the system that contains the target object specified with the target specification. A route consists of the following:

  1. The name of the machine that hosts the target.

  2. (Database targets only) The @ symbol followed by the target database specification. For more information, see Database specifications in a configuration file.

The database specification is absent if the target is JMS, Kafka, or a file.

There can be no spaces between any characters in the routing map.

For more information, see Routing specifications in a configuration file.

host@o.SID

host@o.PDBalias

host@o.tns_alias

host@r.database_name

host

host@c.SID

Compound routing map:

host@o.SID+host@r.database[...]
