Overview of SharePlex security groups

To monitor, control, or change SharePlex replication, a person must be assigned to one of the SharePlex security groups on the systems where he or she will be issuing commands. Each group corresponds to an authorization level, which determines which SharePlex commands a person can issue. To execute a command, a user must have that command’s authorization level or higher.

Use the authlevel command to determine your authorization level for issuing SharePlex commands on a system.

Description of the SharePlex security groups

Refer to the following table to determine the group and authorization level that you want to grant each SharePlex user.

User Authorization Levels and Roles
Auth level User type User group User roles
1 Administration spadmin*

You need at least one user with Administrator rights on each source and target system.

Can issue all SharePlex commands. Commands that can only be issued by a SharePlex Administrator are:

  • startup, shutdown
  • all configuration commands relating to an active configuration
  • all parameter commands except list param
  • start capture
  • stop capture
  • abort capture
  • truncate log

The SharePlex Administrator user must be in the Oracle dba group.

2 Operator spopr Can issue all SharePlex commands except those listed above.
3 Viewer spview Can view lists, status screens, and logs to monitor replication only.

Note: The default name for the SharePlex administrator group is spadmin, but you can designate any group or specify any name for that group during installation.

Create and populate SharePlex groups on Windows

On Windows, the SharePlex groups are created in the Windows User Accounts control panel by the SharePlex installer. To assign users to these groups, use that control panel after you install SharePlex.

Users can verify their authorization levels by issuing the authlevel command in sp_ctrl.

Start replication on your production systems

This chapter contains instructions for the initial startup of replication from a source database to a target database on production systems.

What is activation?

When you activate a configuration, through the activate config command in sp_ctrl, SharePlex does the following:

  • Activates (read) the configuration file to build a series of internal structures that identify objects and routes. Only one configuration can be active for any given datasource at a time. Configurations for different datasources on a system can be active at the same time. For example, you can activate a configuration for each Oracle instance.
  • Starts the processes that maintain the capture and replication of source transactions.
  • (Oracle only) Reconciles replicated data with the copied data. SharePlex applies transactions that occurred after the copy was taken and discards transactions that occurred before the copy (and thus were applied by the copy and would be redundant if applied by replication). The reconcile process is only required for procedures that start replication while the source database is active.

The activation of a configuration generally proceeds as follows.

1. Assign an activation ID

SharePlex assigns an activation ID number to each configuration activation and its associated replication processes and queues. A configuration can be activated many times, and this ID keeps track of each one.

2. Create an object cache

SharePlex builds an object cache that records the standard metadata needed to support replication: the name, size, and type of columns, NOT-NULL constraints, and whether a column is part of a key. For tables using partitioned replication, additional information is stored.

3. Add a configuration change marker

SharePlex places a configuration-change marker in the data stream. This marker directs sp_cop to generate a new set of replication processes and queues. If another configuration is active for the same datasource, the marker deactivates it, causing the removal of the old processes and queues after the data they contain is posted.

4. Lock the tables, add the activation marker, unlock

(Oracle only) SharePlex locks the tables that are listed in the configuration file so that it can obtain information about them while they are in a read-consistent state. As many tables can be locked concurrently as there are locking threads available. When SharePlex locks a table, it places an activation marker in the data stream that tells the Capture process to start (or stop) replicating that table.

Note: If an application uses NOWAIT locking on tables in the replication configuration, the NOWAIT could fail if it attempts to obtain a lock on an object that is already locked because it is being activated.

SharePlex locks the following:

  • All tables added to replication (new and reactivated configurations)
  • All tables removed from replication (reactivated configurations)
  • All tables where routes changed (reactivated configurations)

Each table is locked for a very short time, just long enough to activate a table. Replication of each table begins as soon as its activation is complete. Should one or more table fail to activate, SharePlex continues with the activation of the other tables. Users can access the data in a source table when the activation lock is released.
