We are in the process of deploying DataExchange 2.8 at a customer site, but
I can't figure out a simple routine to add a table to a replicated
database.
This is a one way backup (first site --> partner site), where the database
at the partner should function as a backup, in case of hardware failures
and
so on.
How to modify a table:
1. Stop replication service at the partner site.
2. Upgrade the database at first and partner site.
3. Start replication service at the partner site.
This works.
I then try to add a new table to the database like this:
1. Stop replication service at the partner site.
2. Add new table, both at first, and partner site.
3. Start replication service at the partner site.
This does not work. When I add records to the new table at the first site,
they don't appear in the database at the partner site. I'm quite sure that
the reason for this, is that the replication engine don't know about this
new table. My problem is that I don't know how to make the replication
engine aware of this new table to replicate.
This database is quite large. It contains > 700 tables, and is around
100GB,
so running the DX Deployment tool again (for the whole database) is not an
option. There has to be an easy way of adding this new table to the
replication engine.
TIA
