disable jobs / enable jobs
Use the disable jobs and enable jobs commands to control whether jobs that are performed by the following synchronization commands are allowed to run:
- copy and copy using
- append and append using
- compare and compare using
- repair and repair using
The disable jobs command is a safeguard that ensures that the actions performed by those jobs do not get issued in a peer-to-peer or high-availability configuration. The command prevents the primary (trusted source) data from being overwritten with un-trusted data if a copy, append, repair, or repair using command is issued on the secondary system.
Use the enable jobs command to enable jobs on the primary (trusted) system when it becomes the active system again.

Syntax
disable jobs |
for o.source_SID |
[ on host |
on host:portnumber |
on login/password@host |
on login/password@host:portnumber ] |
Syntax description
for o.source_SID |
Use this option if there is no active configuration or if there are more than one active configurations against different Oracle source instances.
Examples:
sp_ctrl(SysA)>disable jobs for o.ora1
sp_ctrl(SysA)>enable jobs for o.ora1 |
Remote options
These options enable you to issue the command on a remote machine and to script commands that include a login name, password, port number, or combination of those items.
on host |
Execute the command on a remote system (one other than the one where the current sp_ctrl session is running). You are prompted for login credentials for the remote system. If used, must be the last component of the command syntax.
Example: sp_ctrl(sysB)>status on SysA |
on host:portnumber |
Execute the command on a remote system when a remote login and port number must be provided. If used, must be the last component of the command syntax.
Example: sp_ctrl(sysB)>status on SysA:8304 |
on login/password@host |
Execute the command on a remote system when a remote login, password, and host name must be provided. If used, must be the last component of the command syntax.
Example:sp_ctrl(sysB)>status on john/spot5489@SysA |
on login/password@host:portnumber |
Execute the command on a remote system when a remote login, password, host name, and port number must be provided. If used, must be the last component of the command syntax.
Example: sp_ctrl(sysB)>status on john/spot5489@SysA:8304 |
drop partition
Use the drop partition command to remove a row partition from a partition scheme in a horizontally partitioned replication configuration. Issue a drop partition command for each row partition that you want to remove.
Reactivate the configuration file if the command affects a table that is already being replicated. SharePlex will only lock tables for which there are configuration changes.
For more information about how to configure horizontally partitioned replication, see the SharePlex Administration Guide.
Usage
Syntax
drop partition from scheme_name
where
{
{condition = column_condition | hash = hash_value }|
route = routing_map |
name = partition_name |
tablename = target_table |
description = description
} |
Not available |
Syntax description
scheme_name |
The name of the partition scheme. |
condition |
Column condition that defines the rows of the partition that you want to remove. This option and the hash option are mutually exclusive. |
hash |
Hash value of the partition that you want to remove. This option and the condition option are mutually exclusive. |
route |
The routing map of the partition that you want to remove. |
tablename |
The fully qualified name of the target table in the partition that you want to remove. |
name |
The short name of the partition that you want to remove. |
description |
The description of the partition that you want to remove. |
Examples:
sp_ctrl> drop partition from scheme1 where name = q1
sp_ctrl> drop partition from scheme1 where condition = "C1 < 200"
sp_ctrl> drop partition from scheme1 where route = sysb:q2@o.orasid
sp_ctrl> drop partition from scheme1 where hash = 4
drop partition scheme
Use the drop partition scheme command to remove a partition scheme from the SharePlex replication configuration. This command also removes all of the row partitions that are specified for the partition scheme.
Reactivate the configuration file if the command affects a table that is already being replicated. SharePlex will only lock tables for which there are configuration changes.
For more information about how to configure horizontally partitioned replication, see the SharePlex Administration Guide.
Usage
Syntax
drop partition scheme scheme_name |
Not available |
Syntax description
scheme_name |
The name of the partition scheme. |
Example
sp_ctrl> drop partition scheme sales
edit
Edit command
Use the edit command in the following ways:
- To make changes to a SharePlex command that you previously issued. This saves time when you need to issue a command again, but with slightly different syntax, or if you need to correct a syntax mistake.
- To execute commands that contain more than 255 characters, a limitation of the operating system.
The edit command opens a temporary text file in the default text editor from within the sp_ctrl interface. You enter the command in the file, and it automatically executes when you save the file.
To use the edit command:
- If no commands were issued previously in the current session of sp_ctrl, type the first word of the command at the sp_ctrl prompt, then press Enter. Otherwise, skip this step. (Ignore the online help or error that is displayed.)
-
At the sp_ctrl prompt, issue the edit command to open a temporary text file.
sp_ctrl(sysA)> edit
- In the text file, use the editor’s standard commands to edit out any unwanted characters and type the command string.
- Save and exit out of the file using the editor’s standard save command. The command executes immediately
Note: SharePlex provides keyboard shortcuts for the edit command in the for of the up arrow ( ) and the forward slash ( / ) keys.
