These instructions show you how to forcefully terminate SharePlex processes in cases where replication must be shut down immediately. In normal circumstances, follow the shutdown instructions in the following topics:
Run SharePlex on Unix and Linux
On Unix and Linux systems, you can use the ps -ef | grep sp_ command to view the SharePlex processes that are running.
The following child processes are spawned by sp_cop on a source system:
The following child processes are spawned by sp_cop on a target system:
Command and Control process (sp_cnc)
Each child process has the same -uidentifier as its parent sp_cop process. This makes it easier to identify related processes when multiple session of sp_cop are running.
To terminate a SharePlex process on Unix and Linux
$ killPID
Or...
$ kill -9PID
On Windows systems, SharePlex is managed by the NuTCRACKER operating environment, rather than the Windows operating system. However, you can view and terminate SharePlex processes in the normal manner, as you would other Windows programs.
You can view the SharePlex processes on Windows systems in the following ways:
In the Windows Task Manager, SharePlex appears as Sp_Copsrv.exe, representing the SharePlex sp_cop process. The operating system controls the parent Sp_Copsrv.exe service. The parent Sp_Copsrv.exe process spawns child Sp_Copsrv.exe processes — one for each replication process (Capture, Read, Export, Import, Post, sp_ctrl, and so forth.).
For a standard uni-directional configuration replicating through default queues to one target system, there are following processes on a Windows system:
On the source system:
On the target system:
If there are no active replication configurations, the SharePlex processes do not start when you start the service, and just the parent Sp_Copsrv.exe will be running.
To identify the parent Sp_Copsrv.exe process in the Windows Task Manager, look for the one that is using the largest amount of memory. The child Sp_Copsrv.exe processes consume less memory than the parent process.
To identify which replication process is associated with a child Sp_Copsrv.exe process, look in the SharePlex Event Log for the message stating when the replication process started. This entry provides the PID for that process and the PID of the associated Sp_copsvr.exe process.
You can terminate SharePlex processes on Windows systems as follows:
To terminate a process with Task Manager
To terminate all processes with KillSharePlex.bat
Run KillSharePlex.bat from the bin sub-directory of the SharePlex product directory.
Note: This tool terminates all SharePlex processes without displaying them. There are no user prompts or confirmation messages.
SharePlex reports errors and other abnormal conditions in the following ways.
SharePlex reports operational errors, notices and warning conditions to the Event Log. This log provides a perpetual step-by-step record of replication activities, errors, and events. The Event Log can help you replay the sequence of events that led up to a problem.
Examples of replication events include:
Execution of a command in sp_ctrl. User-issued commands are recorded for every SharePlex command that is issued.
Note: A user-issued command appears in the Event Log as a notice, as in the following example:
Notice 08-07-02 16:13:24.641582 23696 1 User command: rjones activate config 1route (from mycomp14)
Login or logout of a user
Each entry in the Event Log includes:
To view the Event Log
Use the show log command in sp_ctrl or open the file named event_log in the log sub-directory of the SharePlex variable-data directory.
SharePlex provides a script for unattended monitoring of this log. For more information, see Monitor events with sp_eventmon.
Note: To control the number of out-of-sync messages that Post logs when a target table is very out-of-sync, use the SP_OPO_SYNC_LOG_FREQUENCY parameter. For more information, see the SharePlex Reference Guide.
The Status Database contains a summary of the conditions reported in the Event Log, including events that did not generate an error message or warning at the sp_ctrl user interface. This information alerts you to potential problems and helps you resolve existing ones. The Status Database may refer you to the Event Log for a more detailed explanation of a warning, notice or event.
To view the Status Database
Use the show statusdb command in sp_ctrl or open the file in the data sub-directory of the SharePlex variable-data directory.
When the Post process detects that source and target tables are out of synchronization, it logs the first 100 SQL statements and data for the out-of-sync transactions to an error file on the target system. You can use this log to determine the extent of the out-of-sync condition, and you can use the SQL statements to repair target tables if the condition is not too severe, after first correcting the cause of the problem.
To view the Error Log
Open the ID_errlog.sql file in the log sub-directory of the SharePlex variable-data directory (where ID is the identifier of the SharePlex target, for example a target database).
When a SharePlex process cannot process a record, the process not only logs the record to the Event Log, but also to its process log file. The process logs are primarily for use in debugging.
The name of a process log consists of the datasource identifier (such as the ORACLE_SID), the short name of the process (such as ocap, ord, opo, rcl), the file number, and the file extension (.log).
Examples:
Capture: ora10_ocap02.log
Read: ora10_ord01.log
Post: ora10_opo03.log
Reconcile: ora10_rcl01.log
The aging of old log files is performed in a circular pattern. The numbering begins with 01 and ends with 03. Up to three logs can exist at any time, including the current one. When all three logs are full (50 MB), the process starts overwriting them, beginning with the oldest one.
To view a process log
Open the file in the log sub-directory of the SharePlex variable-data directory.
When you activate a configuration, it generates a log.
To view the activation log
Open the file named SID_oconf##.log in the log sub-directory of the SharePlex variable data directory.
The compare and repair commands log errors, messages and warnings to a log. For more information about these logs, see the compare commands in the SharePlex Reference Guide.

The SharePlex monitoring scripts notify you of events and conditions that can adversely affect replication on Unix or Linux systems. These scripts provide a monitoring mechanism without the need for frequent status checks through sp_ctrl. They can be run independently or through scheduled jobs.
SharePlex provides the following scripts:
Important!
All monitoring scripts must remain in the directory where they were installed. All but sp_ps are in the .app-modules directory of the SharePlex installation directory. The sp_ps script is in the util directory of the installation directory.
To use the monitoring scripts, start sp_cop with the -uname name option, where name can be an identifier of your choice. Suggestions are:
the SharePlex Administrator’s name
Verify the ORACLE_HOME (the path to the ORACLE_HOME directory) for each Oracle instance being monitored.
Users of the monitoring utilities must have the following rights:
