The following error is seen in event log when activating a table involved in a vertically partitioned replication.:
Warning 2011-05-23 11:04:45.926425 23094 1 Activation: Number of columns in target list does not match the number of columns in source list. Skipping ("OWNER"."TABLE_NAME")
The config file entry for the table specifies wrong number of columns in vertically partitioned replication.
Check the config file entry for the table which is configured to replicate in a vertical partitioned manner to see if the list of columns in target table match with that of the source. Most likely it will have more or less number of columns than source table entry. If so, carry out the following steps to correct the problem:
1. Take the table out of replication by making a copy of the currently active config file, comment out this table and activate the copy
2. Make changes to the entry for this table in the original config file so that the source and target column list matches.
3. Activate the original config file and then resynchronize the table.
