To avoid issues caused by character set incompatibilities.
Oracle golden gate configuration file.
If you are using an oracle goldengate data pump process release v11 1 1 or earlier to transfer the trail files from a source host on the database machine using dbfs this applies to the exadata database machine and to non exadata configurations see oracle goldengate best practices.
The following procedure describes a minimal oracle golden gate configuration.
Once the basic configuration has been tested new features can be added incrementally simplifying any troubleshooting.
Protection against network and target failures.
Oracle goldengate configuration best practices.
Oracle goldengate creates parameter files in the default character set of the local operating system.
It is intended for research and or training purposes and is not intended to be a production configuration.
In a basic oracle goldengate configuration with only a trail on the target system there is nowhere on the source system to store the data operations that extract continuously extracts into memory.
Oracle goldengate basic configuration.
In the event that the local platform does not support a required character set as the default in the operating system you can use the charset parameter either globally or per process to specify a character set for parameter files.
Oracle goldengate high availability using oracle.
If the network or the target system becomes unavailable extract could run out of memory and abend.
For more information see the reference for oracle goldengate and optional parameters for integrated modes for additional configuration considerations.
Enter any optional replicat parameters that are recommended for your configuration.
