Post will retry certain failed operations when there is the possibility that they will succeed with another attempt. The main operations that Post will retry are TNS write failures, connection failures, or locks on tables when Post needs to apply a TRUNCATE.
To increase the likelihood that the failed operations are successful, you can increase the SP_OPO_RETRIES_MAX parameter so that Post tries the operation more times. At the same time, increase the SP_OPO_RETRY_DELAY_TIME parameter to increase the time interval between the attempts. That gives the lock or other blocking operation enough time to be resolved between attempts.
If the Post process is set to continue on error (SP_SYS_SUSPEND_ON_ERROR=0) or if the error message is listed in the oramsglist file, Post moves on to the next transaction in the queue. In all other cases, Post stops after it reaches the maximum allowed attempts.
Important: Reducing this parameter can cause the data to accumulate in the queues, possibly causing them to exceed the available disk space.
For more information, see SP_OPO_RETRIES_MAX in the SharePlex Reference Guide.
You can configure Post to handle out-of-sync conditions. The following explains the default and alternate behaviors.
The default Post behavior when a transaction contains an out-of-sync operation is to continue processing other valid operations in the transaction to minimize latency and keep targets as current as possible. Latency is the amount of time between when a source transaction occurs and when it is applied to the target. Different factors affect the amount of latency in replication, such as unusually high transaction volumes or interruptions to network traffic.
Post logs the SQL statement and data for the out-of-sync operation to the ID_errlog.sql log file, where ID is the database identifier. This file is in the log sub-directory of the variable-data directory on the target system.
You can configure Post to stop when it encounters an out-of-sync condition by setting the following parameter to 1:
If you use this feature, make certain to monitor replication frequently. If Post stops, latency increases and data accumulates in the queues. For more information, see the parameter documentation in the SharePlex Reference Guide.
You can configure Post to roll back and discard a transaction if any operation in that transaction generates an out-of-sync error. The entire transaction is logged to a SQL file, but not applied to the target.You can edit the SQL file to fix the invalid DML and then run the SQL file to apply the transaction. This feature is enabled by setting the SP_OPO_SAVE_OOS_TRANSACTION to 1.
For more information, see the parameter documentation in the SharePlex Reference Guide.
This topic contains instructions for using the transformation feature of SharePlex. Transformation enables SharePlex to manipulate data before, or instead of, posting it to a target.
Transformation directs the Post process to call a PL/SQL procedure (de fined as a transformation routine) instead of applying a SQL operation to the target database. Transformation enables replicated data to be manipulated before, or instead of, posting to a target.
For example, if a source table and its target table are dissimilar in construction — like when a person’s first and last name are in one column in the source table but in separate columns in the target table — you can write a transformation routine to convert the data for those columns so that replication succeeds. You can use transformation routines to convert data types, units of measurement, or character sets. You can use them instead of database triggers to reduce I/O overhead, and for many other business requirements.
When you specify transformation for a table, Post takes no action on the replicated data. Instead, it passes data values to your transformation routine, enabling you to control both the form and destination of the data with the procedure. You can post to the target table, post to an alternate location, or both. Therefore, when writing your routine, is your responsibility to include in your procedure the necessary SQL operations for posting.

Transformation is a convenient way to use SharePlex to transfer data from one table to another without concern for maintaining identical structure or data. This makes it practical for reporting, broadcast, and data mart and warehousing applications.
Transformation is not suitable for peer-to-peer or high-availability replication environments. High availability requires identical databases that are kept synchronized by replication. For peer-to-peer replication SharePlex must be able to detect and resolve conflicts when there are concurrent changes to the same record. When data is transformed, SharePlex cannot compare before and after values to verify synchronization and detect conflicts.
Transformation supports only INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE operations. You can do the following when developing procedures:
If a transformation routine is specified for an individual table, and the table also is part of a group of tables for which another routine is specified, only the table-specific routine is used for that table when the associated DML operation occurs.
