CR
Number
Description
494288 ORACLE ONLY: The device status returned by

ra_helpdevice is incorrect if the device is

stored under ASM.

494320 The RMS heartbeat process has been enhanced to use the new rs_ticket version 2.0 feature if the controlling Replication Server is version 15.1 or higher. The RMS will retrieve ticket information from the rs_ticket_history table.
494368 Repserver cannot convert EUC half size kana into SJIS half size kana correctly.This issue is reproduced when the character codes of REP and IQ differ. ASE(EUCJIS) -> REP(SJIS) -> IQ(EUC_JAPAN)
494611 cannot use "use dump marker" clause with XPDL process
494701 When you run the pdb_get_columns command, incorrect

datatypes are returned for varchar(max), nvarchar(max), and varbinary(max)

datatypes.

Workaround: Ensure that the replication agents in your replication environment

are version 15.1 ESD #1.

494740 RepConnector is creating file EAServer\bin\mqjms.trc and it keeps growing and consuming disk space.
494811 ORACLE ONLY: Replication Agent processing fails

with error: "ChainedOperationException: Could not

concatenate chained operation because: Error

processing record with supplemental data whose

column index duplicates other data columns".

494819 comments for user and groups in repository are not shown if using proxy connection to repository after a logout/login -> comments are lost.

Workaround: use direct connection to repository

495027 Issuing command "create connection ... set dsi_replication_ddl 'on'" may cause the Replication Server to terminate unexpectedly.
495244 If the pdb_xlog_prefix_chars configuration

parameter is set to a value that does not

contain an underscore, Replication Agent will

create system objects with delimited names

in the primary database during initialization.

This may cause Replication Agent api commands

to fail.

495246 ORACLE ONLY: Replication Agent fails with a

NULLPointerException when attempting to read

a redo log on an AIX raw device.

495258 ORACLE ONLY: The locator is not getting updated

when the database is inactive with respect to

replicated changes, even after reading to the end

of a log file or when reading at the end of the

log.

495380 The Replication Server can terminate

unexpectedly in its attempt to log an

error message. This can occur when

specific internal resources are not

available during the process of logging

the error message.

495416 ORACLE ONLY: Command

'ra_config pdb_archive_remove, true' fails with

exception "Could not find Resource Bundle

containing index: LR_BAD_ARC_DIR_ACCESS_WRITE".

495445 UDB ONLY: pdb_setreptable command does not display

case-sensitive replicate table name correctly.

495568 create encryption key, alter encryption key, and drop encryption key are replicated by the ASE Rep Agent.
495591 After completing all tasks, 'rs_init'

may suspend and not terminate. This can

occur if 'rs_init' fails to properly

spawn a Replication Server process.

495761 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: Replication Agent fails

during DDL replication with error "The object whose id is

XXX is not a valid object." after the Replication

Agent has been re-initialized.

495783 For the ASE messages 13925 and 13905,

the 'assign action' values should be set

to 'warn' rather than

'stop_replication'.

495834 ORACLE ONLY: Replication of a LOB value, which

immediately follows the insertion of an empty LOB

in the same location, fails with an error in

Replication Server indicating "The data row that

the writetext command is associated with is

missing."

495856 Sybase Replication Agent for Unix & Windows/15.1.0.5602 is stopping abnormally when executed by the windows service manager starting a batch file.
495884 The Replication Server may go into an

infinite loop when executing the 'resume

connection skip transaction' command

which may cause the complete consumption

of RSSD log space or ASE locks. This

can occur if the ASE and the Replication

Server are both configured with

multi-byte character sets.

496135 ORACLE ONLY: Date values that occur during

Daylight Saving Time transition are incorrectly

adjusted by one hour.

496199 When upgrading Replication Server 12.6

to Replication 15.0 or higher, an

'assign action' value is incorrectly

created for ASE error #41880 rather than

#418801.

496332 ORACLE ONLY: Configuration property

lr_ntext_byte_order is hidden, and can not be

set by user.

496471 RMS performance is severely impacted when monitoring several hundred event triggers. RMS monitoring causes the Replication Server to deny access to other processes. The RMS consumes 95-100% of the CPU. The RMS can take up to 30 minutes to start.
496499 An update to the 'rs_last_commit' table

could fail yet still allow the

associated transaction to incorrectly

commit. This can occur when the failure

is caused by insufficient ASE procedure

cache.

496624 Examples in filter connection in Replication Monitoring Services API are incorrect
496774 Large model consolidates/extracts very slowly.

Initial testing:

PDM file 22.1 MB

Proxy(TBONE server):

Consolidation: 36 minutes

Extraction: 14 minutes

No proxy(TBONE server):

Consolidation: 20 minutes

Extraction: 13 minutes

496889 "admin who_is_down" should list threads in CONNECTING status. "admin who_is_down" is intended to provide a succinct list of issues requiring user attention. A DSI EXEC thread in a persistent CONNECTING state is such an issue.
496901 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: Date values that occur

during Daylight Saving Time transition are

incorrectly adjusted by one hour.

496903 ASE ONLY: Date values that occur during

Daylight Saving Time transition are

incorrectly adjusted by one hour.

496985 The 'get status description' command does not always return the correct descriptions. The command will sometimes return an empty results set.
496987 The result set returned by the 'get status descriptions' command contains 'NULL' rows if the ASE servers in a warm standby configuration are not being monitored by the RMS.
496990 RMA needs to find a better way to get server/RA status without requring the server to be added (thus automatically monitored) to the RMA
496991 Allow event trigger to be created at the server level instead of the component level.
497093 Please make Configurations scriptable. Add Repository Configuration Objects to the Powerdesigner Metamodel and Scripting. Currently we access the Repository Database directly to retrieve informations about the configurations.
497205 ASE ONLY:

Support ASE dump transaction command with

parameter "standby_access".

497275 ORACLE ONLY: Error "Failed to handle the DDL

operations because there is no object information

in the LogRecord" occurred against an "ALTER

PROCEDURE ... COMPILE" command issued against a

procedure whose owner is in the Replication

Agent's owner filter list.

497321 If the number of CPUs exceeds the amount

allowed by the license, the Replication

Server will incorrectly start rather

than terminate. This can occur only

when using an un-served license.

497499 ORACLE ONLY: ra_truncateusers causes

IllegalStateException if Replication

Agent is never resumed.

497530 The RMS reports the rep agent thread for the active connection in a warm standby as suspended when it is active and transactions are being replicated. This occurs when the active ASE dataserver is part of the RMS environment but the standby ASE dataserver has not been added to the RMS environment.
497537 Messages continue to to be sent out to stdout, hence the window after startup.
497693 ORACLE ONLY: pdb_setreptable all, mark fails to

mark all user tables in the primary database.

497728 Improve method to determine queue latency.
497852 *** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x08a37af0 ***

*** glibc detected *** corrupted double-linked list: 0x08a0d908 ***

Theses errors occurs on RS126E6 when the standby side of replication is stopped when data is being replicated.

497929 ASE ONLY: Generated repdefs for encrypted columns

will generate a DSI 32058 error in Replication

Server with a length mismatch. The error is

similar to "The value given for

'<repdef name>.<encrypted column name>' cannot be

translated from datatype 'binary' to the required

datatype 'varbinary'. Value length is '33';

Maximum target length is '11'."

498013 ORACLE ONLY: Replication fails with a duplicate

key violation at the replicate database because

an insert rolled back at the primary database is

incorrectly replicated.

498030 An RSI internal list can be empty at the

time an SQM callback is executed.

Although this is a valid state for the

RSI internal list, the SQM callback is

unprepared for this state which can

result in a failure of the SQM.

498124 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER and UDB ONLY: A

"Replication Definition Not Found" Exception may

occur if a table is re-marked for replication

using the pdb_setreptable command. Table is marked

once with the "owner" keyword and once without the

"owner" keyword.

498130 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: pdb_date command fails

with error "The date time string is invalid and

can not be parsed correctly."

498233 ORACLE ONLY: Replication Agent processing fails

with error: "ChainedOperationException: Could not

concatenate chained operation because: Error

processing record with supplemental data whose

column index duplicates other data columns".

498279 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: Replication Agent fails

with a NullPointerException on a 'resume' command

when the owner of the primary database can not be

found in sys.sysusers view.

498376 ORACLE ONLY: Command pdb_setrepcol fails to find

a table when a synonym is passed as a parameter

498379 ORACLE ONLY: Non-zero generation ID field value

in session repository version locators prevents

truncation.

498424 New subscriptions cannot be validated at the standby target database in a mixed-version environment (Replication Server 12.6->Replication Server 15.1) The "send_enc_password" parameter blocks this creation if the replicated Replication Server has "net password encryption reqd" set to "0".
498467 RS may fail with a stack trace during

function replication if the primary

function name and the replicate function

name differ.

498564 ORACLE ONLY:

Two new Replication Agent commands:

"ra_deviceoffset", "ra_helpdeviceoffset"

ra_deviceoffset

Description

------------------------------------------------

Note This command is available only for Oracle.

------------------------------------------------

Changes the raw disk device read offset for a

log device recorded in the RASD.

Syntax

ra_deviceoffset device_id, device_offset

Parameters

device_id The device ID is the Oracle redo log

"Group number".

device_offset The offset of the raw device,

from which Replication Agent starts log scan.

Examples

ra_deviceoffset 1, 20

This command specifies the raw device read off-

set to the log device ID "1" as: 20.

Usage

- When ra_deviceoffset is invoked, Sybase Replica-

tion Agent records the specified raw device read

offset for the specified log device in the RASD.

- To get information about log devices stored in

the RASD, use the ra_helpdevice command.

- When ra_updatedevices is invoked, device offset

will not be reset to default value.

The default device read offset is zero.

- If ra_deviceoffset is invoked when the Sybase

Replication Agent instance is in Replicating

state, it returns an error.

- The ra_deviceoffset command is valid only

when the Sybase Replication Agent instance is

in Admin state.

See also

ra_helpdeviceoffset, ra_devicepath,

ra_helpdevice, ra_updatedevices

ra_helpdeviceoffset

Description

Note This command is available only for Oracle.

Returns device offset information about primary

database log devices from the RASD log device

repository.

Syntax

ra_helpdeviceoffset [device]

Parameters

device

The device ID of the primary database log device.

Examples

Example 1

ra_helpdeviceoffset

This command returns device offset information

about all primary database log devices recorded

in the log device repository.

Example 2

ra_helpdeviceoffset 1

This command returns information about the pri-

mary database log device ID "1" in the log

device repository

Usage

- The ra_helpdeviceoffset command returns the

following information for each primary database

log device recorded in the RASD:

Device ID - the log device ID defined by the

primary data server.

Note For Oracle, the ID is the value of the

Oracle Redo Log Group to which this file

belongs.

Database name - the name of the primary

database associated with the log device.

Device name - the logical name of the log

device defined by the primary data server.

Server device path - the path to a multi-

plexed version of the log device.

Disk device path - the path to the log

device (at the standby site).

Disk device offset - the offset from which

Sybase Replication Agent starts scan Oracle

redo log in the log device. The value of

device offset displayed is the value of

"raw_device_offset" property in the Rep-

lication agent configuration file plus the

offset value set by command "ra_deviceoffset".

Disk device status - the current status of

the server device path (ACCESSIBLE, NOT_VALID,

or OPEN).

- The disk device path is the current value

recorded in the RASD. Sybase Replication Agent

uses the disk device path recorded in its RASD

to find each log device.

- For each log device recorded in the RASD, you

can set or change the disk device path with the

ra_devicepath command and set or change the

device offset with the ra_deviceoffset command.

- If you do not specify a disk device path (using

ra_devicepath), the value recorded for the disk

device path is DEFAULT, and Sybase Replication

Agent uses the value recorded for the server

device path to find the log device.

- The disk device status is updated by the Log

Reader component each time you invoke the

ra_helpdeviceoffset command.

- If ra_helpdeviceoffset is invoked with no option,

it returns information for all log devices

recorded in the RASD log device repository.

- If ra_helpdeviceoffset is invoked with the device

option, it returns information only for the

specified log device.

- The ra_helpdevice command is valid when the

Sybase Replication Agent instance is in

either Admin or Replicating state.

499292 Configuration parameter lti_send_only_primary_keys,

when set to false, sends all before column images

regardless of columns identified in the

associated Replication Definition.

499317 ORACLE ONLY: IllegalArgumentException during log

scanning stops replication.

499543 ORACLE ONLY: After marking a table with its

synonym, no information was given back when you

try to query marked table through its synonym.

499826 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: Replication Agent throws

a SQLException error when invoking the ra_migrate

command.

499978 ORACLE ONLY: The Replication Agent response

file processing fails with the error

"Device <+XYZ> does not exist" when the parameter

"pdb_archive_path" is set to an ASM disk group

name.

500150 ORACLE ONLY: When altering a function or

procedure to add new arguments, an

"Unsupported SQL type 1111" error occurs.

500312 After a RMS server shutdown, status information in RMPlug-in is not updated when the server is restarted. Currently, there is no way for a RMPlug-in user to tell that the RMS server has been restarted other than disconnecting and then reconnecting to RMServices. Once the user has reconnected to the RMServices icon, correct status is returned.
500356 If (1) a warm standby database is registered

with the Replication Server, (2) an MSA database

is also registered with the Replication Server

and (3) a replication definition is created for

a table in the warm standby database, then the

active connection to the warm standby database

cannot be dropped even after the replication

definition has been successfully dropped.

500368 Table replication definition and subscription does not override the exclusion from msa repdef all the time.
500445 ASE ONLY: Invalid LTL command sent to Replication

Server causes Replication Agent to go to ADMIN

state with an error similar to

"com.sybase.jdbc3.jdbc.SybSQLException: Line 1,

character 120: Incorrect syntax with the keyword

'_bf'" because a delete operation row has all

NULL data fields.

500492 The RS script 'rsupgr_ase.sql' incorrectly

populates an RSSD table with the value 'set

computed_dml on'. The correct value is 'set

dml_on_computed on'.

500890 More efficient processing of changes to cached that are identified to sts_full_cache_<tablename>
528338 Using an interfaces file with a full IPV6 hex hostname address on Unix platforms does not get parsed correctly. The result is that RMS cannot add the server, and returns an error message "Incorrect URL format. java.lang.NumberFormatException for input string." The workaround is to use the IPV6 name format for the hostname in the interfaces file.
528395 MRA ONLY:

Resume failure may happen when executing

'pdb_xlog move,force' before 'pdb_init'

and 'ra_init'.

In case of this failure, please issue

command 'pdb_init move_truncpt' to reset

truncation point and 'resume' MRA again.

528401 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY:

VirtualFileNotFoundException error is thrown after

the primary database is restored.

528438 Using a sql.ini file with a full IPV6 hex hostname address on Windows platforms does not get parsed correctly. The result is that RMS cannot add the server, and returns an error message "Incorrect URL format. java.lang.NumberFormatException for input string." The workaround is to use the IPV6 name format for the hostname in the sql.ini file.
528546 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: A stored procedure fails

to replicate after the following sequence of steps:

1. Create a stored procedure and mark it for

replication.

2. Unmark and drop the stored procedure

3. Re-create the procedure with the same name,

mark, execute it.

528691 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: During unmark

processing, the article's version in the RASD is

not correctly updated which may cause some

operations to be missed when Replication Agent

re-scans the log.

528695 Immediately after adding a partition, stored procedure 'rs_helppartition' incorrectly

reports 'Segments Allocated' for the new partition as '1' if the stored procedure is invoked without parameters. If the stored procedure is invoked with the new partition name as the parameter, the 'Segments Allocated' field is correctly reported as '0'.

528722 The command 'admin config, dsi_alt_writetext'

does not return the value for the

'dsi_alt_writetext' parameter.

528882 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: Table dbo.sysdiagrams is

incorrectly marked for replication.

529131 For internal use only (new development):

Support migration to mra151.

529153 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: Replication definition

can not be automatically created for a table with

a column containing 'sysname' datatype.

529242 ORACLE ONLY: The replication agent needs to have

the ability to read redo logs that are mirrored

and also remain replicating if it cannot connect

to ASM when attempting to refresh log devices.

529326 ASE ONLY:

pdb_setreptable can not

recognize tables with long

names having '_' and '%'.

The length of table name cannot

exceed 255.

529367 ORACLE ONLY: The Replication Agent stops

replicating due to an error. The error log

displays an error similar to:

"ChainedOperationException: Could not set header

to operation... because the chained operation

header.... is already set."

The error is caused by a failure to handle a

rollback operation applied to one log operation

of a chained operation.

529380 RepConnector: some control characters in character data can cause an error: An exception while operating the statement.

java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Array index out of range: 0

529413 ORACLE ONLY: "IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index: 6,

Size: 6" occurred with primary Oracle multi-block

undo enabled.

529738 Seems there are added additional and wrong informations in the configuration dialog. Members and version are inconsitant.
529741 Add a frozen document to a repository configuration.

529907 ASE Only:(windows)

pdb_date can not return

the correct month infomation

if OS regional is Chinese.

529921 ORACLE ONLY: NullPointerException will be

thrown when replicating nested UDD type.

529922 Some signs cannot be included in the password of RMServies.
529924 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: Replication Agent fails

to replicate commands whose log record "Flag Bits"

are set to value 3600.

530598 ORACLE ONLY: The Replication Agent sends a

rollback record to Replication Server that

incorrectly removes the begin transaction record,

causing Replication Server to fail with error:

"#9022 DIST Cannot deliver a command since no

transaction is open".

530692 Replication Manager online help may not display when running in a Chinese environment (set LANG=zh_CN.UTF8 or zh_CN.gbk or zh_CN.gb18030 and so on).
530706 ORACLE ONLY: When altering a table to rename the

table, or to add or delete columns, a

NullPointerException occurs.

530800 If the user chooses an installation type of 'Typical', 'Full' or

'Custom' and then decides to navigate backwards to choose a different

installation type, the component subset is not properly changed to match

the installation type.

530820 Track user modifications at the model artifact attribute level

Customer's description:

Currently, PD keeps track of the changes we make at the object level and automatically places check marks next to the updates that we have initiated when consolidating with the repository. However, if there are multiple changes to the same object, PD shows all the changes and we have to select which attribute changes that we have generated. We need PD to keep track of the changes down to the attribute level and automatically check only those changes at the attribute level that we have initiated. We realize that this can be done by manually modifying the check boxes at the attribute level; however, when you have a team of 8 people working on the same model and updating the same requirements, (modifications from a review perspective, modification from a consistency perspective and modifications from a content perspective), the number of modifcations is great and the time that it takes to step through each individual attribute is extensive. Fixing this would greatly reduce people clobbering eachother's work.

531157 The 64-bit version of Redhat Enterprise Linux 5.0 is known to *not* ship

with the Linux 'libXp' package by default. If the Linux 'libXp' package

is missing, the RS 1510 GA and RMP 1510 GA 'setup' installation command

will fail and the following generic message is generated ...

The installer is unable to run in graphical mode. Try running

the installer with the -console or -silent flag.

If the 'setup' installation command is invoked with the following

parameters ...

setup -is:javaconsole -log '#' @ALL

... this additional message is generated ...

531261 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY:

ra_maintid command throws NullPointerException

after Replication Agent is initialized.

531373 RA DB2 will not replicate all tables when use_repdef= Y
531385 ASE ONLY:

pdb_get_tables and pdb_get_procedures

can not recognize table/procedure

with long names having '_' and '%'.

The length of table/procedure name

cannot exceed 255.

531399 ORACLE ONLY: Replication Agent fails to

correctly calculate the rollback point for a

"rollback to save point" operation. The failure

to rollback some operations causes an eventual

'duplicate key' violation at the replicate

database.

531426 In environments that include RMP 15.1 and ASEP 15.0.2, uninstalling the RMP 15.1 may cause the jconn3.jar file to be removed. This causes the ASEP to not function correctly.
531606 The uninstall process may not remove uninstall_RMP.bin when RMP is installed in a multiple Sybase product environment. Running the uninstall_RMP.bin again will produce no results.
531960 Replication definitions are created with invalid

replicate owner when the replication definition

is created automatically and when it is created

for replicating Oracle to ASE.

A new property "rs_replicate_owner_required"

allows Replication Agent to always supply the

owner in the replicate table name when the

replication definition is generated.

rs_replicate_owner_required

Description:

Determines if the owner should always be supplied

in the replicate table name when the Replication

Agent generates replication definitions, so that

Replication Server can distinguish between

replicate tables of the same name with different

schema/owner, and different schema/owner than the

replicate maintenance user applying the command.

Default:

true

Values:

true � The owner will always be included in the

replicate table name of generated replication

definitions.

false � The owner will only be included in the

replicate table name of generated replication

definitions if the primary name is also owner

qualified.

Comments:

- When the rs_replicate_owner_required is set

to true, generated replication definitions will

always be created with the replicate owner

and table name in the "with replicate table

named" clause.

Example:

create replication definition ra$0xca61_MyTable

with primary at rao.ora10g

with primary table named 'MyTable'

with replicate table named 'MyOwner'.'MyTable'

(

"QUANTITY" rs_oracle_decimal,

"ORDER_NUMBER" varchar(200)

)

primary key( "QUANTITY","ORDER_NUMBER" )

searchable columns( "QUANTITY","ORDER_NUMBER" )

send standby all columns

replicate minimal columns

- When the rs_replicate_owner_required is set

to false, generated replication definitions will

be created with the replicate owner

and table name in the "with replicate table

named" clause only if the primary table is

owner qualified.

Example:

create replication definition ra$0xca61_MyTable

with primary at rao.ora10g

with primary table named 'MyTable'

with replicate table named 'MyTable'

(

"QUANTITY" rs_oracle_decimal,

"ORDER_NUMBER" varchar(200)

)

primary key( "QUANTITY","ORDER_NUMBER" )

searchable columns( "QUANTITY","ORDER_NUMBER" )

send standby all columns

replicate minimal columns

532153 ORACLE ONLY: Replication fails to start against

Oracle 9i because the Replication Agent does not

correctly recognize the desired archive redo log.

The error is similar to "An Archive file was not

found. Reason: Archive log file for LSN <xxx> is

not found. File <archiveLog>.

532157 Sybase Replication Agent 15.1 is a completely

new version. As a result, there are no fixed

bugs to list in this section.

532297 ORACLE ONLY: An operation that was rolled back at

the primary database can be inappropriately

replicated when a rollback occurs in the middle

of several concurrent transactions.

532509 ORACLE ONLY: Translation error occurs on

rs_oracle_datetime when a year value exceeds 4712.

532510 The Replication Server incorrectly fails to

convert an Oracle date value when the year

portion of the date value is larger than 4712.

532570 The installer for Replication Manager 15.1 does not display a warning when installing into an existing directory unless there is an existing Replication Manager installation.

Also, the installer for Replication Manager 15.1 does not display a confirmation message to create a new directory if the target installation directory does not exist.

532629 New Feature Request ... secure (encrypt) all data RepServer maintains on disks(stable device and logs)
532659 ORACLE ONLY: Re-initializing Replication Agent

533063 ORACLE ONLY: Replication Agent fails to process

a DDL command that recompiles a procedure. The

error is similar to "Failed to handle the DDL

operations because there is no object

information in the LogRecord."

533069 The Online-help section labeled "Preparing to manage a replication environment" should include the item: "$SYBASE/RMP-15_x/lib/callback.jar" in the list of items to manually enter when using an external class loader.
533092 ORACLE ONLY: Operations in the pdb_skip_op list

are not skipped because the pdb_skip_op command

interface does not take into account Oracle

SUBSCN field values.

Description

This command is available only for Oracle and

Microsoft SQL Server.

Returns, adds, or removes record identifiers from

a list of records to skip in processing. The

format of the identifier is database-specific.

To support RAC, log location and truncation is

done by System Change Number (SCN) instead of

Record Address (RBA). The skip operations feature

must be familiar with SCNs and thread numbers to

truncate the skip operations list and to skip the

correct operation across multiple threads.

Syntax

pdb_skip_op [ add , identifier ]

pdb_skip_op [ remove, { identifier | all } ]

Parameters

add

Adds a specified ID to the list of

identifiers of records to skip.

remove

Removes a specified ID from the list of

identifiers to skip.

identifier

Identifies the log record to skip. The syntax

allows for either an operation locator or a

database-specific identifier.

all

Allows you to remove all IDs in the

list of identifiers to skip.

Examples

Example 1

pdb_skip_op

This command with no parameters returns a list of

the identifiers for the records you want to skip.

Example 2

pdb_skip_op add, id

This command adds an ID to the list of identifiers

you want to skip.

Example 3

pdb_skip_op remove, id

To remove an ID to the list of identifiers you

want to skip.

Example 4

pdb_skip_op remove, all

This command removes all the IDs from the list of

identifiers you want to skip.

Usage

- The pdb_skip_op command allows you to skip

problem records, thereby avoid having to

re-initialize the Replication Agent.

- Skipped records are written to the system log

as a warning message.

- The pdb_skip_op command is valid when the

Replication Agent is in Admin state.

- The format of the generic identifier

is the 64 character LTM locator representing the

operation to skip.

- The format of the database-specific identifier:

- For Microsoft SQL Server, the identifier is

Log Sequence Number (LSN) and it has the

following form:

virtualfileseqno:pageid:operationsseqno

where:

- virtualfileseqno is the virtual

log sequence number.

- pageid is the page number.

- operationsseqno is the sequence

number of the operation.

You can get the LSN using the Microsoft

SQL Server DBCC command, or you can parse

it from the locator. For example:

- LSN in decimal format: �489:112:27�

- LSN in hexadecimal format:

�0x00000489:00000112:0027�

- For Oracle, the identifier contains, SCN

(System Change Number), redo log thread, and

Record Byte Address (RBA) and it has the

following form:

wrap.base.sub, thread, lsn.blknum.blkoffset

where:

- wrap is the SCN wrap number.

- base is the SCN base number.

- sub is the SCN sub index.

- thread is the redo log thread number

that the operation occurred on.

- lsn is the RBA log sequence number.

- blknum is the RBA block number.

- blkoffset is the RBA offset into the

block where this record resides.

The values must be specified in the

pdb_skip_op command together, enclosed in

quotes, each item separated by a period.

For example:

'0000.012345678.0001', '1',

'0012.0000444.0000123'

All values can be described as a hexadecimal

by prefixing the identifier with an �0x� as

follows:

'0x000c.00001bc.000007b'

or

'0x0000.00BC614E.000A'

537961 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER and ORACLE ONLY:

There are new Replication Agent System Database

backup features for saving and restoring the

ASA database.

The Replication Agent System Database is now

automatically backed up when the transaction log

is re-initialized, so in the event an error

occurs while the transaction log is being

re-initialized, it can be restored to the state

it was before re-initialization started.

When the Replication Agent System Database is

backed up, the most recent database backup is now

saved in a repository backup directory with a

time-stamped name in the format

"yyyy-MM-dd_HH.mm.ss" before the ASA database is

backed up. The ASA database is still backed up in

the location specified by the "rasd_backup_dir".

In addition, the database backup files are not

automatically removed. A new feature is provided

for backup maintenance.

Example backup directory:

<INSTALL_DIR>\RAX-15_1\myRAO\repository\backup\

2008-07-24_15.41.10

Note:

The Replication Agent System Database can be

backed up manually using the "rasd_backup"

command, or will be backed up automatically

when the transaction log is re-initialized.

The "rasd_restore" command has been enhanced to

take advantage of the new backup features. In

addition to having the ability to restore from

the most recent ASA database backup, individual

backups can be selected for restore.

Command Description

rasd_restore

Description

This command is available only for Oracle and

Microsoft SQL Server.

Restores the RASD.

Syntax

rasd_restore [backup_name]

Parameters

backup_name

The name of the backup to restore from. If the

backup name is ommited, the most recent backup

is restored.

Examples

rasd_restore

This command with no parameters restores the RASD

from the most recent backup.

rasd_restore 2008-07-24_15.41.10

This command restores the RASD from the

2008-07-24_15.41.10 backup.

Usage

When rasd_restore is invoked, it starts the

restore process for the RASD.

Sybase Replication Agent looks for the most

recent RASD backup files in the directory

identified by the rasd_backup_dir configuration

parameter when no parameters are input.

Sybase Replication Agent restores from the

specified backup in the directory identified by

the rasd_backup_dir configuration parameter

a backup name is provided as a parameter

When you create a Sybase Replication Agent

instance, a RASD backup directory is created

automatically as part of the instance directory

structure. The default value of the

rasd_backup_dir parameter points to that

directory.

If you invoke rasd_restore when the Sybase

Replication Agent instance is in Replicating

state, it returns an error.

The rasd_restore command is valid only when the

Sybase Replication Agent instance is in Admin

state.

547814 There are three new options to the -u parameter

in the ra_admin utility for upgrading Replication

Agent instances.

SYNTAX: ra_admin -u <upgrade_option>

PARAMETERS

-u <src_instance_dir>

Upgrade one instance of Replication Agent in

the specified source instance directory

to the product installation directory

-u <instance_name> | instance=<instance_name>

Upgrades only the specified instance of

Replication Agent in the current product

installation directory

-u all

Upgrade all instances of Replication Agent

within the current product installation

directory.

EXAMPLE:

To upgrade an individual instance in

a specified source instance directory to

the product installation directory.

ra_admin -u /opt/sybase/RAX-15_0/my_inst

To upgrade all the instances in the current

product installation.

ra_admin -u all

To upgrade a specific instance in the current

product installation directory.

ra_admin instance=my_inst

OR

ra_admin my_inst

NOTE:

- The -u <src_instance_dir> provides the

ability to upgrade an individal instance

from a previous major release to the

current release.

- The 'all' or '<inst_name>' or

'instance=<inst_name>' upgrade options

performs an upgrade of instance(s)

in the current product release. All

upgrades are performed directly on the

instance to be upgraded. The Replication

Agent instance configuration file is

backed before the upgrade for use in error

recovery, if required. If an error occurs,

the upgrade is rolled back. This option is

intended for performing upgrade of instances

between release to release in the same

major release such as a patch update.

When Customer create a subscription, he would reference the RepDef name as well as its source PDS/PDB info in its name for easy reference.

Because of the column length restriction, "subname" are usually heavily abbreviated to accommodate lengthy RepDef names (which would be from lengthy table names), which can be a real pain when trying to create unique subscription names for Customer.

So if Customer were to make use of the increased table(object) and RepDef name length, he would have even more difficulty abbreviating these into 30 character subscription names.

554216 When using Replication Agent version 15.1 ESD #2

or earlier, and communicating with Replication

Server release 15.2 or later, the Replication

Agent query against the Replication Server System

Database to obtain replication definition

information fails to return the appropriate rows.

This failure causes the Replication Agent to fail

with a 'replication definition not found' error.

554483 ORACLE ONLY: Marked stored procedures will be

unmarked and re-marked during migration.

Failure of re-marking stored procedures will

be logged as error in Replication Agent error

log, and ra_migrate just return success.

Customers must review the error log and may be

required to do manual re-marking.

A list of procedures which need to be manually

re-marked will be provided in the error log.

Two limitations during migration:

1. Marked stored procedures that are executed in

the primary database during migration will not be

replicated.

2. DDL operations done in primary database

between last truncation point and the end of

migration will not be replicated because DDL

replication will be disabled internally by

Replication Agent during migration.

554637 ORACLE ONLY: Replication Agent fail to replicate

execution of procedure if procedure is altered

to add a new parameter.

554669 Convert all data types with type value >= CS_USER_TYPE to the types that Sybase Open Server can understand.
554762 Customer have define lot of Replication Definition, about 17.000 row in "rs_objects".

This cause him awful performance when calling "rs_helprep".

Looking at "rs_helprep" RS system store proc source code, it create and populate a temporary table before processing user request.

Steps to create and populate this temporary table are:

1- create the temporary table

2- populate the temporary table using "insert ... select ..." statement

3- update data in temporary table, one row by one row.

Third steps is the one that may cause poor performance (due to SQL code doing a loop and simulating what could be done using cursors).

The INSERT statement into temporary table "#rs_repinfo" could be improved in order to avoid doing step 3.

Suggesting change:

Original RS 15.1 "INSERT" statement:

---------------------

/* Initialize #rs_repinfo from rs_databases, rs_objects, rs_sites */

insert into #rs_repinfo (objid, objname, prs, prds, prdb, phys_tablename,

phys_objowner, deliver_as_name, repl_objowner, crdate, dbid)

select ro.objid, ro.objname, rs.name, rd.dsname, rd.dbname,

ro.phys_tablename, ro.phys_objowner, ro.deliver_as_name,

ro.repl_objowner, ro.crdate, rd.dbid

from rs_objects ro, rs_sites rs, rs_databases rd

where ro.prsid = rs.id and

rd.dbid = ro.dbid and

ro.objname not like "rs_in%" and

ro.objname not like "rs_drp%"

---------------------

Could be updated as following:

------------------------------

/* Initialize #rs_repinfo from rs_databases, rs_objects, rs_sites */

insert into #rs_repinfo (objid, objname, prs, prds, prdb, phys_tablename,

phys_objowner, deliver_as_name, repl_objowner, crdate, dbid,

/* adding following column */

type, phys_owner_tab, repl_owner_tab)

select ro.objid, ro.objname, rs.name, rd.dsname, rd.dbname,

ro.phys_tablename, ro.phys_objowner, ro.deliver_as_name,

ro.repl_objowner, ro.crdate, rd.dbid,

/* adding following value to populate all columns at same time */

case ro.objtype

when 'R' then 'Tbl'

when 'F' then 'Func'

else 'Sys'

end,

case ro.phys_objowner

when ' ' then ro.phys_tablename

else substring (ro.phys_objowner + '.' + ro.phys_tablename, 1, 255)

end,

case ro.repl_objowner

when ' ' then ro.deliver_as_name

else substring (ro.repl_objowner + '.' + ro.deliver_as_name, 1, 255)

end

from rs_objects ro, rs_sites rs, rs_databases rd

where ro.prsid = rs.id and

rd.dbid = ro.dbid and

ro.objname not like "rs_in%" and

ro.objname not like "rs_drp%" and

/* adding following where clause to select, at the source, only wanted RepDef */

ro.objname like isnull (@object, '%') + '%'

------------------------------

So next block statement could be removed:

---------------------

/* remove following block statement, not needed any more due to above change in population #rs_repinfo table */

/*

select @cur_rep = min(objid) from #rs_repinfo

while @cur_rep != NULL

begin

-- get the type from rs_objects

select @temp = objtype,

@powner = phys_objowner, @ptable = phys_tablename,

@rowner = repl_objowner, @rtable = deliver_as_name

from rs_objects

where objid = @cur_rep

if (@temp = 'R')

select @type = "Tbl"

else if (@temp = 'F')

select @type = "Func"

if (@powner != " ")

select @ptable = substring(@powner+'.'+@ptable, 1, 255)

if (@rowner != " ")

select @rtable = substring(@rowner+'.'+@rtable, 1, 255)

update #rs_repinfo

set type = @type,

phys_owner_tab = @ptable,

repl_owner_tab = @rtable

where objid = @cur_rep

-- get the next entry

select @cur_rep = min(objid)

from #rs_repinfo

where objid > @cur_rep

end

*/

558865 PD15 CMR:DBCS Korean is broken on Repository Object Properties->Description
559042 The Replication Agent (dbltm) could have crashed when shutting down if the shutdown request was issued by the RepServer that was currently connected. This problem has now been fixed.
559386 ORACLE ONLY: The "pdb_archive_path" configuration

property now provides the option to include the

Oracle unique database name with the ASM disk

group name in order to identify the location in

ASM that archived log files are stored.

pdb_archive_path

This parameter is available only for Oracle and

UDB.

Identifies the directory path where the

Replication Agent expects to find archived redo

log files (for Oracle) or archived transaction

log files (for UDB). When archived redo log files

or archived transaction log files are stored in

the file system, the configuration parameter is

set to a file system path.

Default

<not configured>

Values

For Oracle, a valid directory path on the machine

hosting the Replication Agent that points to a

location where Oracle places the archived redo

log files. For example,

ORACLE_HOME\oradata\orcl\archive

For Oracle, when archived redo log files are

stored in Oracle ASM, the configuration parameter

must be set to the name of the ASM disk group

where the archived redo log files are stored.

The disk group name must be preceded with a plus

�+� sign to specify the archive redo log path as

an ASM disk group. For example,

+dgroup_01

For Oracle, when archived redo log files are

stored in Oracle ASM and the Oracle datbase

name and unique database name are different, the

configuration parameter must be set to the name

of the ASM disk group and database name where the

archived redo log files are stored. The disk

group name must be preceded with a plus �+� sign

to specify the archive redo log path as an ASM

disk group followed by a path separator "/" and

database name. For example,

+dgroup_01/XDMQALDA

For UDB, a valid directory path on disk, as

defined by the UDB LOGARCHMETH1 or LOGARCHMETH2

database configuration parameter, when it is

configured to DISK. For example,

<path>

Comments

Setting of the configuration parameter is

required when configuration property

pdb_include_archives is set to true, and must be

set to a valid location before the Replication

Agent can be placed in a replicating state.

If the Replication Agent cannot find an expected

log record in the Oracle online redo logs, the

Replication Agent will search this directory for

the archived log file containing the required

record.

For UDB, pdb_archive_path must be configured

before pdb_archive_remove is enabled

(set to true).When pdb_archive_remove property is

set to true, Replication Agent for UDB truncates

the archived log files from the location

specified by pdb_archive_path.

See also pdb_archive_remove and

pdb_include_archives.

559473 After a Replication Agent zeros the Replication Server truncation point

with 'rs_zeroltm', the Replicatin Agent expects to

receive a zero value from the Replication Server with the 'get

truncation' command. Due to uninitialized

values, a non-zero value is incorrectly received

instead.

559474 Incorrect column name sent to RS.
559506 ORACLE ONLY: Prior to this release, the

Replication Agent would automatically create

replication definitions during ra_init

processing, if configuration property

pdb_auto_create_repdefs is set to true. Now,

in order to shorten the length of time

required for ra_init processing, automatic

creation of replication definitions in

Replication Agent for Oracle has been removed

from ra_init processing, regardless of the

setting of pdb_auto_create_repdefs.

Customers who wish to have replication

definitions created for all tables marked during

execution of ra_init, should execute command

rs_create_repdefs with the 'all' keyword after

ra_init execution.

563694 Customer is using RepAgent for Oracle 12.5.0.303P2 (trigger base RepAgent).

RepAgent 12.5, trigger based release, for Oracle, the store procedure "RA_BLD_REPTRAN_" does not report exception that had occured from RAO system table "RA_EXCEPTION_" when the SQL_Code is negatif (less than 0).

When RepAgent scan the shadow log, it call store proc "RA_BLD_REPTRAN_", this store proc may raise an execption (error 20.000) when exception have been logged in the exception system table "RA_EXCEPTION_" :

RA_BLD_REPTRAN_ source code:

/** check for exceptions, raise -20000 error if any have been registered **/

SELECT COUNT(*) INTO NUM_TRANS FROM RA_EXCEPTION_ WHERE sql_code_ > 0;

IF ( NUM_TRANS > 0 ) THEN

RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR ( -20000, 'RAO exceptions have been logged');

END IF;

In this peace of code, the WHERE clause "sql_code_ > 0" does not include all exceptions where error code is negatif.

This cause RepAgent to be restarted even the "RA_EXCEPTION_" system table is not cleared, and cause next exception to not be logged.

This code could be change like this: ("sql_code_ <> 0")

/** check for exceptions, raise -20000 error if any have been registered **/

SELECT COUNT(*) INTO NUM_TRANS FROM RA_EXCEPTION_ WHERE sql_code_ <> 0;

IF ( NUM_TRANS > 0 ) THEN

RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR ( -20000, 'RAO exceptions have been logged');

END IF;

Doing this, the RepAgent exception table will need not allow RepAgent to restart before exception table is cleaned and so next exception will not be lost.

564756 The schedule option for 'rasd_trunc_schedule'

command has been enhanced to accept

two kinds of schedule string. The current support

restricted UNIX cron style format and now a full

UNIX cron style format to support range and step

schedule.

The following is a valid schedule string in the

full UNIX cron style format:

[mm] [HH] [DOM] [MON] [DOW]

Note:

- Similar to the restricted UNIX cron style

schedule, a full UNIX cron style have

5 fields: mm, HH, DOM, MON and DOW,

The schedule format consists of 5

fields:

- minutes

- hours

- day of month

- month

- day of week.

- Each of the fields must be separated

by a whitespace. The schedule string

must be enclosed in double quotation marks.

- A list of values, a range of values or

a range of stepped values can be specified

in each fields so that a series schedule

can be specified in one command.

- List values in form i,j,k, which means

integer values applying to a field are i,j

and k. For example, schedule

"1,2,8,10 20 * * *" represents 8:01 pm,

8:02 pm, 8:08 pm, 8:10 pm every days.

- Range values in form of i-j, which means any

integer value from i to j. For example,

0-59 represents values 0,1,2,3,4,5,...58,59;

schedule "0-59 20 * * * " represents every

minutes in 8 pm.

- Step values in form of i-j/n, which means

any value from i to j stepped by n. For

example, 1-10/4 represents values 1,5,9.;

schedule "1-10/4 20 * * *" represents

8:01pm, 8:05 pm and 8:09 pm.

pdb_archive_path

This parameter is available only for Oracle.

Identifies the directory path where the

Replication Agent expects to find archived redo

log files (for Oracle). When archived redo log files

or archived transaction log files are stored in

the file system, the configuration parameter is

set to a file system path.

Default

<not configured>

Values

For Oracle, a valid directory path on the machine

hosting the Replication Agent that points to a

location where Oracle places the archived redo

log files. For example,

ORACLE_HOME\oradata\orcl\archive

For Oracle, when archived redo log files are

stored in Oracle ASM, the configuration parameter

must be set to the name of the ASM disk group

where the archived redo log files are stored.

The disk group name must be preceded with a plus

�+� sign to specify the archive redo log path as

an ASM disk group. For example,

+dgroup_01

For Oracle, when archived redo log files are

stored in Oracle ASM and the Oracle database

name and unique database name are different, the

configuration parameter must be set to the name

of the ASM disk group and database name where the

archived redo log files are stored. The disk

group name must be preceded with a plus �+� sign

to specify the archive redo log path as an ASM

disk group followed by a path separator "/" and

database name. For example,

+dgroup_01/XDMQALDA

Comments

Setting of the configuration parameter is

required when configuration property

pdb_include_archives is set to true, and must be

set to a valid location before the Replication

Agent can be placed in a replicating state.

If the Replication Agent cannot find an expected

log record in the Oracle online redo logs, the

Replication Agent will search this directory for

the archived log file containing the required

record.

566139 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: Replication Agent

instance can not start up after upgrading from

pre-15.1 to current release version.

566225 There are three new options to the -u parameter

in the ra_admin utility for upgrading Replication

Agent instances.

SYNTAX: ma_admin -u <upgrade_option>

PARAMETERS

-u <src_instance_dir>

Upgrade one instance of Replication Agent in

the specified source instance directory

to the product installation directory

-u <instance_name> | instance=<instance_name>

Upgrades only the specified instance of

Replication Agent in the current product

installation directory

-u all

Upgrade all instances of Replication Agent

within the current product installation

directory.

EXAMPLE:

To upgrade an individual instance in

a specified source instance directory to

the product installation directory.

ma_admin -u /opt/sybase/MA-15_0/my_inst

To upgrade all the instances in the current

product installation.

ma_admin -u all

To upgrade a specific instance in the current

product installation directory.

ma_admin instance=my_inst

OR

ma_admin my_inst

NOTE:

- The -u <src_instance_dir> provides the

ability to upgrade an individal instance

from a previous major release to the

current release.

- The 'all' or '<inst_name>' or

'instance=<inst_name>' upgrade options

performs an upgrade of instance(s)

in the current product release. All

upgrades are performed directly on the

instance to be upgraded. The Replication

Agent instance configuration file is

backed before the upgrade for use in error

recovery, if required. If an error occurs,

the upgrade is rolled back. This option is

intended for performing upgrade of instances

between release to release in the same

major release such as a patch update.

566309 5185 message can be misleading.
566422 Replication: A set of stored procedures is loaded into the RSSD when a Replication Server is added to SCC. In the previous release the content of the script was written to the SCC log file. This has been changed to exclude the script's content, but to add an informational message to the log that identifies the name of the script.
566480 ASE ONLY:

For internal use only(QA found the issue

before release):

Table or procedure can not be marked/unmark/

enable/disabled by using "pdb_setreptable"

or "pdb_setrepproc" due to "null" error.

566579 State icon for both project and document does not reflect the current status in the local browser. Sometimes, icon is not displayed at all and you have to click the model/project to see it or have it updated.
566663 Error during FREEMAIN, SYS CODE = 378-0C, for memory not allocated.
566670 MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ONLY: Replication Agent

provides two new API command, ra_deviceoffset

and ra_helpdeviceoffset to set the raw device

offset and provide help on the raw device offset

setting

566715 Replication Server command "admin stats, status" returns error, single quoting the "status" value will avoid the problem but internal and external management tools require this keywork status without single quotes.
566829 *** Tuesday, March 31, 2009 1:17:13 PM *** ahill *** 12.5 & 15.0

BUG: PD 12.5.0.2361(esd#19) consolidate 'metamodel.oom' to ASE 1501 esd#1 using the Sybase ASE ODBC driver 15.00.00.xxx causes loss of metadata.

This issue appears to be due to the size specified in the 'text size' parameter of the ODBC DSN. The default value is 32678.

The consensus from a consult is that the 'text size' attribute needs to be increased to resolve this issue. Changing this value from 32678 to 10,000,000 should have no performance related issues when working with a repository installed on ASE. This value can be increased to a maximum of 2G if necessary.

Another issue that occurred was some text characters being extracted incorrectly. Using metamodel.oom, 'ellipsis' in a comment was extracted as a '.' period.

This is due to the character set of the server. However, this issue can be addressed by changing the 'character set' attribute on the ODBC driver.

ASE TSE has provided the following:

The ellipsis (...) character is properly processed (consolidate/extract/compare from repository)

when PD 125 client has MaxBytesPerChar set and the ODBC driver setting 'User Specified' = utf8 is set...

////////////////////

ASE:

I have an ASE 1501 ESD#1 server.

It's charset = iso_1, sort = bin_iso_1.

---

ODBC driver:

If I set the <<User Specified>> = utf8 in the Character Set groupbox

and the <<Client Default>> > Code Page Type = ANSI (it's greyed out).

---

PD 12.5 client:

The regkey: HKLM\Software\Sybase\PowerDesigner 12\Repository\MaxBytesPerChar =3

The ellipsis character (a unicode character) is properly mananged in the db.

566833 ENH: For Sybase ASE, it would be very helpful to offer mandatory database configuration settings that are required to accept the PD repository script and the consolidation/extraction of any/all of the example models...
566854 When Replication Server can not connect to replicate database and continues to retry the connection, memory leak will happen.
566944 ORACLE ONLY: The system tables for Oracle user

'WK_TEST' and 'FLOWS_FILES' are now being filtered

out for replication by default.

566946 When the transaction log does not exist in the

primary database or the RASD is not yet

initialized, "pdb_setrepcol" with no argument

returns "0 rows affected" instead of returning

an error.

566987 Replication Server 15.2 Upgrade script has a typo when adding a new function string "rs_get_errormode". User may see erroneously reporting of warning message #13110.
567006 'create error class <class>' where <class> is a Replication Server class, returns message about system table being corrupt when it is not. The correct command for creating a Replicaton Server error classes is: create replication server error class rs_repserver_error_class
567192 ORACLE RAC ONLY: Oracle RAC replication

performance is slow.

567241 RS 15.1 and 15.2 use considerable more memory at bootup than RS 15.0.1 for the same number of connections.
567247 Error message #5185 messages is not supressed when the corresponding error action is set to 'ignore'. The error will continue to be reported in the Replication Server error log causing the log to fill very quickly if the source and target databases are out of sync.
567376 Replication: The following error may appear in the Sybase Control Center agent.log:

Attempt to locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'database_name' by name failed - no entry found under that name. Make sure that name is entered properly.

567436 5185, 5186, 5187 should identify the table that is producing the message.
567480 When the Replication Server replicates text data containing multi-byte characters and the length of text data is longer than 4KB,

the Replication Server may fall down with a 7035 error (additional allocation would exceed the memory_limit).

This can occur if the ASE and the Replication Server are both configured with multi-byte character sets.

567610 When parameters "Change in Activity (commands)" and/or "Latency(sec) are zero, the Path dashboard does not display the queues chart.
567614 Only the top 10 queues are being displayed in the Replication Server dashboard Queues view.
567682 RMS agent: If the RMS agent, on IX, is unable to login to the RepServer (due to login failure) then the network may fill with unclosed connections eventually preventing further connections to RS.
567729 ORACLE ONLY: Replication Agent goes to ADMIN state

with error "Too many open files".

567760 When multiple threads update the 'rs_databases' system table twice in one transaction, then the STS cache will be corrupted.
567814 Replication: The Replication Topology view may not display correctly if a server is unregistered from Sybase Control Center and a different server is registered under the same name.
567821 ORACLE ONLY: Low scan_sleep_max configuration

may stop replication. There is a new

Replication Agent configuration

log_scan_eol_threshold for determining when to flush

sorted records that have not been checkpointed.

And in Oracle RAC environment, for helping to

determine when a node in a cluster is no longer

active.

log_scan_eol_threshold

The threshold used to determine when to flush

sorted records that have not been checkpointed.

Default

300

Values

An integer from 300 to 2147483647.

Comments

- The value of the log_scan_eol_threshold

parameter is the maximum number of seconds that

can elapse before the Log Scanner component

flush sorted records that have not been

checkpointed.

Notes

- For Oracle RAC, log_scan_eol_threshold

configuration is used in determining whether a

node in the cluster is active. Since a node

may go down at any point during replication,

Replication Agent has to determine when a node

is no longer active, and the

log_scan_eol_threshold configuration is used

for this purpose. If Replication Agent is

reading at the end of the node's redo log

thread and there are no checkpointed records

in the queue, Replication Agent will treat a

node as inactive after the number of seconds

specified by the log_scan_eol_threshold

configuration pass. The log_scan_eol_threshold

configuration can not be set too low, otherwise

Replication Agent treating a node as inactive

when it is actually still active.

567926 bulk insert doesn't do bulk insert on nullable text column, replicate_if_changed and ASE 12.5.4.
567946 Stack upon startup with quoted identifiers on.
567970 Self-join queries do not be replicated as SQL statement correctly. The Replication Server applies the SQL statement as the maintenance user and the target ASE does not process is correctly. The Replication Server should use the owner name associated with the table in the replication definition and apply the SQL with the prefix owners name included in the target table.
568078 ORACLE ONLY: Transaction user is not sent

correctly when using "Oracle Identity Manager

10.1.4".

There is a new Replication Agent command to

support use of Oracle Identity Manager.

Command:

pdb_send_osuser_list

Description:

Add or remove database user id to/from osuser

list. If the database user is in the osuser

list, then any transactions for that database

user will be sent as the relative operating

system user for that transaction user. This

list is a list of 'database' users that will

need to be replaced with the 'operating system'

user name. This is NOT a list of

'operating system' users. This command also

returns a list of the database users in the

osuser list.

Syntax:

pdb_send_osuser_list

pdb_send_osuser_list [[add | remove],[user | all]]

Parameters:

add The add keyword add user into osuser list,

whose transaction will be sent to

Replication Server as its relative

operating system user.

remove The remove keyword removes database user

from osuser list.

user The name of the database user that need

be converted to operating system user.

The user name is case insensitive.

all All database users will be converted to

operating system user if they have a

valid operating system user.

Examples:

Example 1 pdb_send_osuser_list

This command lists database users who will be

converted to osuser. Assuming a person logs

into their operating system as 慾oeuser�, and

subsequently logs into Oracle as 憉ser_a�:

Example 2 pdb_send_osuser_list add, user_a

This command adds database 'user_a' into

osuser list. The transaction of 'user_a; will be

sent as operating system user 慾oeuser�

Example 3 pdb_send_osuser_list remove, user_a

This command removes database 'user_a' from

osuser list. The transaction of database

'user_a' will no longer be converted to the

operating system user 'joseuser'.

Example 4 pdb_send_osuser_list add, all

The transaction of all database users will be

sent as operating system user

Usage:

- When pdb_send_osuser_list is invoked, its

function is determined by the keywords and

options you specify. When multiple keywords

and options are specified, each must be

separated by a comma. Blank space before or

after a comma is optional.

- Only session login later then

pdb_send_osuser_list will be

converted as osuser. The session by user

which is earlier than pdb_send_osuser_list

setting will not change.

For example:

pdb_send_osuser_list add, user

- The pdb_send_osuser_list command is valid

only when the Replication Agent instance is

in ADMIN state.

- If command without parameters to list only,

then it valid for any status.

'ra_locator zero' and zero the locator of

Replication Server by Replication Server command

'rs_zeroltm <data_server>, <database>'. Before

doing this, please make sure that all the data

570934 ORACLE RAC ONLY: There is a new Replication Agent

configuration for scanning the primary database

redo log threads in parallel.

Configuration Parameter Name

lr_parallel_scan

Description

The lr_parallel_scan configuration property is

applicable to Oracle RAC only and determines

whether the redo log threads for all nodes in a

clustered database are scanned in parallel or

whether a single serial scan is used.

Default

false

Values

true, false

Comments

- When true, the Replication Agent will start a

redo log scan thread for each redo log thread in

the clustered database.

- When false, the Replication Agent will do redo

log thread reads for each redo log thread in the

clustered database serially.

570942 ORACLE ONLY: New commit generation feature has

been added to improve RAC replication latency.

The feature is configured and monitored using

the following API commands and properties.

Configuration property:

pdb_commit_generation

Values: true or false

Default: false

Description:

If pdb_commit_generation is set to true,

Replication Agent will generate committed

transactions in the primary database at a

configured interval.

Configuration property:

pdb_commit_interval

Valid values: 1 to 5 seconds

Default: 1 second

Description:

pdb_commit_interval is the interval, in

seconds, at which the committed transactions

are generated in the primary database.

Command:

pdb_commit_generation_status

Description:

The command returns the status for all

primary database commit generation threads.

Command:

pdb_commit_generation_filter <action>,<inst>

Values:

action is the keyword 'add' or

remove',

inst is the valid Oracle instance

name, or the keyword 'all'

Description:

If the keyword 'add' is passed as an

argument, Replication Agent will add the

instance to the filter list, disabling the

commit generation for the instance.

If the keyword 'remove' is passed as an

argument, Replication Agent will remove the

instance from the filter list and enable the

commit generation for the instance.

When the command is called without any

arguments, then the names of all filtered

instances are displayed.

Server is not initialized by 'pdb_xlog init'.

Instead, a new command 'server_xlog init' is

introduced to initialize the server.

Description:

Initialize or cleanup the server xlog.

Syntax:

server_xlog [init | remove] [,force]

Usage:

-When you want to initialize the server xlog,

you should run 'server_xlog init'

-When you want to cleanup the server xlog,

you should run 'server_xlog remove, force'

-Moreover, 'pdb_xlog init' will check whether

server has initialized. If not, pdb_xlog

won't run and prompt the user to run

'server_xlog init' first.

581027 Add a new repository right that allows the end user to specify 'Manage All Documents' at the folder level.

The customer is requesting the following:

Add feature to control the 'Manage All Documents' right; to be able to assign it to either the root or a specific branch and/or to a specific folder. Once the 'Manage All Documents' right is assigned to a user or group, that user/group can create a folder in any other folder even though he has list or read rights. PD needs to be able to offer more flexibility for the permission control to a folder or branch that way they can designate specific group or a specific user document control within a specific end user environment.

Here is a simplified scenario at our company:

We have 3 folders in this repository (at Default branch): Baseline, CAO, and OPC.

We would like to create a manager to be able to create users and manage only the documents within the OPC folder.

Once the 'manage all documents' is applied to the user, they can add/change folders and documents in other folders in which

they do not have write or full permissions.

Repro:

1. Log into repository with 'ADMIN'

2. Create 3 folders all at the root/Default branch.

REPOS::ADMIN::<Default>

Baseline (folder)

CAO (folder)

OPC (folder)

3. Create a user "testmanager" with the following rights:

Connect, Freeze Versions, Lock Versions, Manage Branches, Manage Configurations, Manage All Documents

note: You could do this with just the 'connect' and 'Manage All Documents' rights as well.

4a. select "REPOS::ADMIN::<Default>" branch in repository browser.

b. right-mouse button (RMB) click <Default> branch and select "Permissions" menu.

c. select 'Show All Authorized User's icon.

d. select the 'testmanager' row and then his permission to 'List'.

e. select the 'Copy Permissions to All Children' which will push this permission down to all other items in this <Default> branch.

5. select OPC folder and right-mouse button (RMB) click it > Permissions and set 'testmanager' to Write or Full.

6. select either Baseline or CAO folder and right-mouse button (RMB) click it > Permissions and you see that 'testmanager'

is set to 'List'

7. Try and add a folder to either Baseline or CAO folders. It is allowed.

The problem is he has rights to manager all documents in the repository and can assign permission to users in all objects in the repository. The user would like PowerDesigner to restrict him only to manage OPC folder. If they give the 'testmanager' "Manager Users" rights, they only want 'testmanager' to be able to assign rights to users within the OPC folder only. In other words, we want local administrator has local rights only.

For quick lists, it would be more useful/helpful to see simple details of a column at the column list level of the table (name, code, datatype). We realize that viewing this same metadata connected to the repository in the PD Client interface also presents the same behavior. However, having name, code, datatype and possibly the domain is certainly more useful when seeing the (quick) list of columns on a table than having to drill down into the attributes tab to see even more details of the column object.

If the Replication Server uses embedded RSSD, edit the rs_name.cfg file,

where rs_name is your Replication Server:

Add the erssd_release_dir parameter to specify the location of the pre-

upgrade SQL Anywhere. For example:

erssd_release_dir=/work1/sybase/REP-15_1/ASA9

Add the erssd_start_cmd parameter to specify the command to start ERSSD.

Obtain the name and location of the Replication Server you are upgrading,

and the port number of the Replication Server RSSD, from the interfaces

file. You can find an example of the parameter in the Replication Server

log file by searching for 揈RSSD start command�. For example:

erssd_start_cmd=/work1/sybase/REP-15_1/ASA9/bin/dbspawn

-f -q /work1/sybase/REP-15_1/ASA9/bin/dbsrv9

-ct- -ti 0 -x "tcpip(PORT=11751;DOBROAD=NO;BLISTENER=NO"

590417 ORACLE ONLY: A new option has been added to

'ra_dumptran' that allows the user to obtain

detailed information about database operations

and database operations in a transaction by

specifying the Oracle transaction ID.

Command ra_dumptran

Description:

Command ra_dumptran dumps all operations for a

specified transaction to an exclusive log file

in order to help trouble shoot a failed

operation, or transaction. The time the

transaction was executed, the user that executed

the transaction, the name of the log the

transaction was dumped to, and additional

database specific information is displayed as a

result set.

If the Oracle script

$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/dbmslm.sql

has not been installed at the primary database,

an error will be reported indicating it must be

installed in order for the ra_ dumptran command

to properly operate.

If the new permissions that must be granted to

the "pds_username" are not granted at the time

ra_ dumptran is executed, an error will be

reported indicating the following permission's

must be granted before the ra_ dumptran command

will properly work:

EXECUTE_CATALOG_ROLE TO PDS$USER;

SELECT ON V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS TO PDS$USER;

SELECT ON V$LOGMNR_LOGS TO PDS$USER;

SELECT ANY TRANSACTION TO PDS$USER;

If a public synonym that must be created for

"SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR" is not created, an error will

be reported indicating that "DBMS_LOGMNR" does

not exist.

CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM DBMS_LOGMNR FOR SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR;

Syntax: ra_dumptran "opid | locator | xid"

Opid - The Replication Agent operation id for a

database operation

Locator - The Replication Agent locator for a

database operation

Xid - The Oracle transaction ID for the

transaction

Example 1:

ra_dumptran

0x0000.01542e48.0001:0001.000002dc.00000004.0010

This command returns information for the begin

operation in the transaction specified by an

operation ID.

Information for every operation in the transaction

is written to a file in the Replication Agent log

directory. The file is named with the prefix

"XID" followed by the transaction ID and ".log".

Example:

$RAX_DIR/<INSTANCE_NAME>/log/

XID0005.002c.0000002c.log

Example 2:

ra_dumptran

0000000001544ada00060001000002de00000008001000000

000000000000000

This command returns information for the begin

operation in the transaction specified by an

locator.

Example 3:

ra_dumptran 0x0007.002a.000032f0

This command returns information for the begin

operation in the transaction specified by a

transaction Id.

Usage:

The ra_dumptran command returns the following

information for the begin operation specified by a

locator or operatin ID:

- The Replication Agent operation id for the

transactions begin operation in the format:

wrap.scn.subscn.thread.lsn.block.offset

- The Oracle SCN for the transactions begin

operation as logged in a redo log file

- The Oracle id for the transactions begin

operation

- The name of the user that executed the

transaction

- The date and time the transaction executed

- The Oracle thread that transaction was executed

on

- The Replication Agent command that will cause

the transaction to be skipped by the Replication

Agent while replicating

- The name of the file the transaction is written

to

The ra_dumptran command wtites the following

information for for all operations in

the transaction specified by a locator or

operation ID:

- The Oracle SCN for the operation as logged in a

redo log file

- The Oracle thread that operation was executed

on

- The Replication Agent operation id for the

transaction begin operation in the format:

wrap.scn.subscn.thread.lsn.block.offset

- The Oracle id for the object the operation

affected

- The Oracle name of the object the operation

affected

- YES if the object in the operation is marked

for replication by the Replication Agent, No

if it is not marked for replication

- The operation type, i.e. INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE

- The Oracle SQL statement for the operation

592898 ENH: Offer more meaningful error messages to PD client when a check-in (consolidation) fails with "The check in of the document has been cancelled."

There is very little to go by to troubleshoot and address such a problem. Especially, when the ct. cannot provide their model or repository database to us.

Here is the full message presented to their PD client in the Output windowpane:

Checking in the document

'D:\Documents\DataModeling\PD15test.oom'

- Freezing the repository document before check in...

- Checking out the repository document 'PD15test'...

The check in of the document has been cancelled.

592961 Power Designer has to be killed from task Manager, if there is a Problem in communication with an Oracle Repository either due to a connectivity issue or becaue of the try to check in a corrupt modell. In this case a Modell was corrupted and for somewhat reason had 2 identintical unique key values.

Checking in the corrupt model in a connection to the Repository without using the Proxy throws and Error and Powerdesigner keeps on reacting

593037 After adding subscription, Replication Server crashes.
593151 When dynamic SQL and minimal columns are used together, Replication Server reports 'Incorrect syntax near 'FAILED' on update command with only identity column in the set clause.
593249 When using dynamic SQL to ASE and there is a deadlock at the replicate, the command(s) prior to the deadlock within the same transaction are not applied.
594039 The SAMPLE_RS cannot be created by 'rs_init' if the environment variable

LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64 is set and does not contain the correct pathnames.

To work around this issue, prior to starting 'rs_init', merge the values

of the environment variables LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64 and

set both environment variables to this merged value.

594062 If the Replication Server 15.5 Installer response file is created to

indicate that the installer should start the SAMPLE_RS during a silent

install, the installer fails to do so.

594341 deadlock of rs_oqid and resume queue, results in un-applied transactions as duplicates.
594417 After the Replication Server 15.5 Installer has completed the creation

of the SAMPLE_RS, the subsequent installer panel incorrectly enables the

'Previous' button and allows the user to navigate to the previous panel

to create the SAMPLE_RS again.

594420 When the Replication Server 15.5 Installer is used in console mode and

completes with non-critical errors, the contradictory messages 'Press

Done to quit the installer' and 'PRESS ENTER TO EXIT THE INSTALLER' are

incorrectly displayed.

594431 The Replication Server 15.5 Installer does not present a panel that asks

the user for the location of a Replication Server 15.5 license file.

Thus, the installer is unable to install the license file for the user.

To work around this issue, after the installer completes successfully,

the user can manually copy the license file to the directory

'$SYBASE/SYSAM-2_0/licenses'.

594596 When Replication Server is configured to use Warm Standby or MSA, the

606836 DOC RepSrv ... specifics on how to create repdef to handle non dbo table in MSA

Add a section giving examples that show the nuances of combinations between a MSA_dbrepdef and table rep defs...

The main point is to communicate that one should be careful. The best choice is to explicitly specify the OWNER of the table in table rep defs and use sp_setreptable with owner_on to prevent any unsuspected results...

606838 ASE 15.0.2 and ASE 15.0.3

When PD is launched, you are able to connect to the repository via an ASE native driver profile. If you disconnect from the repository and attempt to connect a second time, the repository connection fails. The reported error reads:

Unable to initialize Client Library context.

The problem appears to be introduced after the first disconnection from the repository. As long as I do not disconnect from the repository, I can make multiple ASE connections using the native driver. for example, I am able to reverse engineer a database and I can connect, disconnect and reconnect without issue.

606980 Replication Server will fail to replicate an UPDATE to a JAVA column

Explain the limitation of java/jdk excluding support for roman8 code page when Sybase Central and RMP Replication Manager Plugin are used in conjuction to attempt a login to an ASE/RepServer server that is using the defualt code page of roman8.

The customer needs to be aware that even though roman8 is listed in the drop down list of possible code page choices when making a server connection in the dialogue where the username and password are being requested ... choosing roman8 as the manually select code page will cause a connection failure since java/jdk excludes support for the roman8 code page.

614006 Customer is running 15.1.0 EBF4. However, their repository was created in 15.0.0.2613 (GA). When they connect to the repository via CMR and expand the models via the Repository Explorer, the models appear nested and is listed twice.

For example:

Default

->Folder

->->Project Management(CDM).cdm - v1

->->-> Project Management(CDM) - v1

Note: first reference includes model extension

Using the following steps, I was able to reproduce this issue:

Created a brand new database instance on MS SQL Server 2005

1) install PD15.0.0 GA

2) create repository

3) in repository, create folders CDM and PDM

4) open project.cdm and check-in to CDM folder

5) open project.pdm and check-in to PDM folder

6) in repository, create user tony

7) install CMR 15.0 GA

8) connect via CMR using login tony (same results using ADMIN login)

614808 For Configurations, the Associated Folder information display is inconsistent. Connecting to the same repository, with the repository and database login and same ODBC driver displays different results when connecting to the repository from different PC clients.

The customer's document, includes screen shots showing the list of configurations. In one image, the Associated Folders field is blank for all configurations. In the second image, three configurations have an associated folder listed. In both images, the customer is connecting to the same repository with the same user. The only difference is that they are using two different PC clients.

Using the following repro, I get similar behavior.

Repository structure is

ROOT

-CDM Folder

--CDM model

-PDM Folder

--PDM model

To reproduce:

1) Connect to repository from PC_1 using ADMIN login

2) Right click on existing folder and create configuration

3) Select Repository -->Configuratiosn and display Associated Folder column Note: the column is populated

4) Connect to repository from PC_2 using ADMIN login

5) Select Repository -->Configuratiosn and display Associated Folder column Note: on PC_2, the folder name has become Folder_1 杤1.1 while on PC_1 it is CDM 杤1.1

For this repro, the configuration was created on a Vista workstation (PC_1) with MS SQL Server as the backend. The version of the SQL Server driver version is 6.00.6002.180005.

For PC_2, a XP workstation is used and the SQL Server driver version is 2000.85.1132.00.

Connected to repository from a third workstation using a different database login and SQL Server driver version 2000.85.1132.00. The connection displays the Associated Folder the same as PC_1.

For the customer they are reporting that the associated folder information is missing. While on the phone teh customer was able to repro this on 15.0.0.

In Internet Explorer 7 or 8, when you navigate to a folder/model and then select the folder/model, the vertical scrollbar resets to the beginning (top). The expectation is for the scrollbar to maintain its position next to the selected folder/model.

If the same is done in Firefox 3.5.7, the vertical scrollbar maintains the current position.

Chapter 12: Managing Replicated Objects Using Multisite Availability

Subscription with bulk materialization

...

After you define the subscription:

1 Dump PDS.primary_db. The DSI connection to the replicate database is

suspended when the dump marker reaches the replicate Replication

Server. It is suspended so that no data will be replicated until you

have finished step 2. Replication Server activates and validates

the subscription automatically when the dump marker is replicated.

Warning! Do not activate subscription or it will override the wait for dump

marker at the Replication Server.

2 Load PDS.primary_db to RDS.rdb.

3. Online RDS.rdb

4. Prepare the RDS.rdb as a replicate:

release the secondary truncation point with dbcc settrunc ('ltm',ignore)

optionally, disable the Replication Agent

dump the transaction log

5 Resume the DSI connection to the RDS.rdb.

Cannot drop the table 'rs_updown_status', because it doesn't exist in the system

To workaround this issue, a dummy table rs_updown_status should be created in the RSSD and upgrade should be re-done.

This is expected behavior. In the Check-in window, only models listed in the <project> directory will be checked-in.

the customer desires to see the reference of the model shortcut in the repository browser.

To reproduce:

In your workspace,

1) create 2 projects, Project_A and Project_B.

2) In Project_A you create a new model, Model_A.

3) In Project_B you create new model, Model_B, and you add Model_A from Project_A.

We will have in Project_B a shortcut to Model_A:

Project_A

Model_A

Project_B

Model_B

shortcut to Model_A

Now we check-in both projects in the repository. If we look in the repository we will see the following :

Project_A :

Model_A

Project_B

Model_B

Note: that we don't see in the Project_B the shortcut to Model_A.

However if we checkout Project_B and select "check out dependencies" we will get :

Project_B

Model_B

shortcut to Model_A

This enhancement request has been reviewed by engineering and will not be implemented.

625312 CMR is unable to connect to an upgraded repository if all the libraries have not been upgraded.

Customer create a repository in V12.x using Studio Enterprise eval. They later purchased DataArchitect Enterprise. They have upgraded to v 15.1 EBF8. When they attempt to connect to the repository via CMR, they get an error. In the log file, there are errors stating problems loading the OOM, RQM, and BPM metaclass. Upon review of the customer's PMLIBR table, the OOM, RQM, And BPM versions are at 12.1 or 12.5.

Since these libraries have not been migrated to v15, CMR is failing to connect.

Workaround

Upgrade all repository tables/libraries to current build

This was done by using an eval license

To reproduce the issue:

1) create repository in v12.5 using studio enterprise

2) upgrade to 15.1 using DataArchitect enterprise

3) upgrade repository to v15.1

4) attempt to connect to repository via CMR

One of the errors reads:

When option FASTCMP is set to true, "rs_subcmp" rebuilt "PSELECT"/"RSELECT" statement to include hash function call.

To do so, "rs_subcmp" rebuild a list of columns which are not primary key to be passed to the hash function.

Doing so, current column name is compare in a loop with the list of primary key column name.

When column name match, the current column is added to a key column list, but the loop is not ended.

When it does not match, the current column name is added to the hash list column as many time as there is some primary key column, where this "add" must be done only once per column name.

This cause non-key column to be present in duplicate (as many time as there is primary key columns) in the column list used for hash function, and when number of columns (or number of key-column) is to high, "Select" statement fail when it is send to ASE:

3) select a model\document (model_1) and create new subscription using user_1

4) in PD, connect to repository and delete the model\document (model_1)

5) in CMR, refresh or stop and restart the server

6) select model_2 and create a new subscription using user_1

7) click Save

NOTE: you get the following error:

An error has occurred! Click logout

java.lang.RuntimeException: wrapped Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException

at com.sybase.cmr.web.filter.LocaleFilter.doFilterInternal(LocaleFilter.java:96)

8) logout and then log back in

9) select model_2 and create a new subscription using user_2

10) click Save

NOTE: the subscription is created. It appears that the problem occurs when attempting to reuse an user that was previously associated with a model that has been deleted from the repository.

642966 Customer is using RepServer 15.x under Solaris (but this is a generic issue/request)

Customer have define Function-String using T-SQL variable in the "output language" clause.

When several statement using same T-SQL variable are sent to target ASE, ASE error #134 is raised because of redeclaration of T-SQL variable :

E. 2010/08/31 14:11:09. ERROR #1028 DSI EXEC(103(1) ASE1_1503.rdb1) - dsiqmint.c(3221)

Message from server: Message: 134, State 1, Severity 15 -- 'The variable name '@v1o' has already been declared. Variable names must be unique within a query batch or stored procedure.

To work around this issue, Customer have to switch off the "batch" Connection parameter which may cause serious performance issue.

Customer would like RepServer to implement a behavior so RepServer will be able to identify T-SQL variable declaration and send them only once per batch to target ASE in order to avoid ASE error #134.

643144 Enhancements to Replication Definition creation by Replication Agent:

1) Commands rs_create_repdef and rs_drop_repdef are expanded to support creation of Replication Definitions when the primary database is UDB.

2) Keyword 'display_only' has been added to the rs_create_repdef command to allow the Replication Command Language that would be sent to Replication Server to create the Replication Definition to be displayed. The command syntax is displayed, but it is not executed against Replication Server when the display_only keyword is included.

Syntax:

rs_create_repdef [owner.]tablename[,display_only]

645156 Added keywords 'wait' and 'nowait' to the pdb_setreptable command.

When the 'wait' keyword is included in the pdb_setreptable command along with the 'mark' keyword, the command will BLOCK until an exclusive lock on the primary table is obtained. There is no timeout unless one is imposed by the primary database. The purpose for obtaining the lock is to ensure any open transactions against the table are complete before the table is marked.

When the 'nowait' keyword is included in the pdb_setreptable command along with the 'mark' keyword, the command will attmpt to acquire an exclusive lock on the primary table , but will fail if the lock can not be obtained. The purpose for requesting the lock is to ensure there are no open transactions against the table when the table is marked.

Syntax:

pdb_setreptable [owner.]tablename,[replicate_owner.]replicate_tablename,mark,owner[,[wait|nowait]]

Note: The wait and nowait keywords are only supported when 'mark', 'owner', and replicate table name values are also supplied with the pdb_setreptable command, and only supported as the last keyword in the command (must be the 5th attribute)

654763 In the Portal, the customer is attempting to assign a private port number for the SMTP protocol. if they enter a value greater than 1000, the following error is returned:

"the port number should be 1 to 1000"

The customer is requesting that the Portal be enhanced so that they can specify a port in the Dynamic and\or Private Port range.

The customer has made reference to the following specifications:

http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers

Specifically, they are referencing the following:

PORT NUMBERS

(last updated 2011-01-11)

The port numbers are divided into three ranges: the Well Known Ports,

the Registered Ports, and the Dynamic and/or Private Ports.

The Well Known Ports are those from 0 through 1023.

DCCP Well Known ports SHOULD NOT be used without IANA registration.

The registration procedure is defined in [RFC4340], Section 19.9.

The Registered Ports are those from 1024 through 49151

DCCP Registered ports SHOULD NOT be used without IANA registration.

The registration procedure is defined in [RFC4340], Section 19.9.

The Dynamic and/or Private Ports are those from 49152 through 65535

654794 UDB ONLY: Replication Agent fails to stay in

REPLICATING state because the UDB byte order is

unrecognized.

654815 RS 15.0.1 ESD#2 AIX stops abnormally when Warm Standby ASE experiences procedure cache becoming very low or even exhausted

The SQM thread with Replication Server stops working. Only way out is to recycle ASE with

standby and RSSD (which same is on the same ASE server)." Just for clarification. We are

experiencing a stop of the SQM. In one case the SQM stopped and the Replication Server stopped abnormally. In all cases of the SQM stopping, a message arrives in Replication Server log that procedure cache is short. The only way to start the SQM is to SHUTDOWN and START the Replication Server. Resume does not work for the SQM. Looking at the RSSD location in ASE no message can be found.

654935 when RepServer is in hibernation mode and SCC is collecting stats, if hibernate_off is issued, RS crashes. This only occurs when the stat collection runs after hibernate_off has been issued, but before the server comes out of hibernation mode.

656519 Minimal columns behavior change at the connection, can change expected replication environment behavior when upgrading.
656848 For consolidated RQMs, the Requirements should be sorted in the same format as the Local copy of the RQM. This would be to sort based on the 'Title ID'.

When a requirement model is consolidated, the requirements are displayed in the repository based on selected sort options which is Name or Code.

NOTE: This sort order does not match the 'Document View' diagram.

In the Local Browser, the Requirements are sorted based on a combination of 'Title Id + Name'. This sort order does match the 'Document View' diagram.

The customer is using CMR\Web Portal. When they attempt to review the RQM, it is impossible to view a true representation of the RQM.

Summary:

Repository View = Portal View

1) PD is functioning as designed. Sorting the Repository view of the Requirements based on the Name\Code sort option.

2) There does not appear to be an option to sort based on the Title ID with in the Repository View

3) Without the option to sort by Title ID within the Repository View, it severely handicaps, the use of the Portal when working with Requirement models. There is no way to provide end users a true view of the consolidated model.

656890 Administration Guide incorrect in documenting affect on replicate_minimal_columns with replication definitions.

657451 'rs_objects' system table is corrupt

customer hit this problem gave us their erssd db file and erssd xact_log file,

their stable queue files, their <rs_name>.cfg file, and their RUN file and we are

able to reproduce their instance of the problem in-house here at Sybase now.

customer purged the queue and the problem was resolved ... thus the error message

......

'rs_objects' system table is corrupt

......

seems to be a false error message in the sense that there is something seemingly

wrong in the stable queue rather then in the erssd rs_objects table

657469 When a RS function requires log into another server, give the option to use a different user id and password for the login.
657553 UDB ONLY: Replication Agent fails to replicate

some decimal values. The exponential (float)

value is propagated instead of the full decimal

value.

657567 rs_subcmp generates wrong reconcile SQL file if data content special char, e.g. '%'.
657573 Replication Server incorrectly basing partition size on number of segments instead of number of MB. This can cause a create partition command to fail. It also means that more disk space is being used for a partition after block size is increased.
657623 Ability to generate repdef names that are "different" and to put the repdefs to a separate file.
657634 Fixed Replication Server connection to ExpressConnect for Oracle, whereby no suspend occurred when table was not present at replicate, dsi_dynamic_sql = on and dsi_bulk_copy = on.

657988 Tested and reproduced with PD 15.2 ESD#9

'Rebuild Clustered Indexes' alters table index from Unique to Non-Unique. Customer Itau-Unibanco wants to know why this behavior happens. Customer understands the index should not be altered at this point.

658049 Difference in rs_update_thread and rs_intialize_threads stored procedure code.
658132 Rep Agent cannot read the DB2 V10 log because the layout for one structure was changed to have 68 more bytes.
658134 During idle times, empty transaction that splits the begin and commit transaction across a buffer, leaves open transaction upon RA DB2 restart.
658138 DB2 now allows duplicate LRSN values which causes duplicate QIDs in Rep Agent and Rep Agent shuts down.

660286 If a table has multiple replication definitions in a warmstandby environment, after dropping all those replication definitions, there will be a row with objname like rs_indrp% left in RSSD rs_objects which will be never dropped.
660407 Please give an option to easily handle (skip or bypass) image/text replication errors:

For instance:

1. Capability in the replication error class to customize how to deal with either "text pointer returns no rows" or "text pointer returns multiple rows" besides just the suspend connection option that is currently available.

2. Allow the capability to allow the rest of the columns to be applied and commit the transaction, even if the text pointer logic fails. The failure of the text should be logged to the RS log.

3. Allow for easier customization of function strings that deal with the text/image replication.

664651 SCC RMAP hangs when adding procs in RSSD and the RSSD log is full
664679 PD 15.2 EBF#9

This is a feature request from Itau-Unibanco customer:

Enable PD APIs with methods for Repository user management. E.g: create new users and groups, asociate users to groups, define rights and permissions etc.

*** Mon Jul 07 2014 11:28:38 GMT-0400 (Eastern Standard Time) *** ahill *** PD 16.5 SP03

Morgan Stanley is requesting this functionality as well.

We would like to raise an ehancement request for a Repository Management API.

This should allow for all the administrative functions that are exposed in the PD GUI to be automated. For example:

- Add/change/remove user

- Add/change/remove group

- Add/remove users to/from groups

- Set user/group permissions on folder

The API could be as simple as a documented set of database stored procedures in the repository database or a SOAP/REST web service or command line tools.

665570 ORACLE ONLY: Improve LOB replication performance.

A new Replication Agent configuration parameter

lr_max_lobdata_cache is now available to use for

tuning LOB replication performance.

lr_max_lobdata_cache

Determines the maximum size (in byte) of LOB

data cache for each off row LOB data.

Default: 8192

Values: An integer from 8192 to 2147483647

Comments:

- The lr_max_lobdata_cache can be use for

tuning better LOB replication performance.

The recommended value for setting the

lr_max_lobdata_cache is a value larger than

the max LOB data size being replicated.

- The lr_max_lobdata_cache should be set when

the Replication Agent instance is in ADMIN

or REPLICATING DOWN state.

Particular care needs to be taken for the automatic expiration of login passwords in a warmstandby of master. When a login password has expired, ASE is enforcing an immediate change. When a login password has expired on a standby ASE, Replication Server

can't comply with the rule enforced by ASE. Therefore, it is recommended that the login passwords on a standby ASE never expire by configuring a higher login expiration interval on the standby ASE than on the primary so that the change of passwords is driven by the primary ASE.

Repository in SQL Server 2005 DBMS - using Native Connection Profile

Environment: Windows 2003

This issue is for Itau-Unibanco.

When a checkin process is cancelled due to a log full state from SQL Server 2005, PMTEXT is inserted an improper row that is never deleted and this row remains orphan since then.

Also, native connection profile does not reflect database Log Full state and customer never knows a log full occurred in db.

By using ODBC driver, the error IS reflected successfully, but improper row is also inserted into PMTEXT and not deleted as it should be, after checkin is cancelled.

684561 REGR : when switching user in repository, the library is lost
684795 When the connection to the repository via the proxy is lost, the PD client still appears to be connected to the repository. When the end user attempts to check-in a model, the consolidation is cancelled but the end user does not know why. If you select the repository tab in the Browser, the PD client still appears to be connected to the repository.

The PD client should provide some indication that the connection to the repository is no longer available.

1) connect to repository via a proxy connection

2) consolidate a model

3) shutdown the proxy server, but keep the PD client open

4) modify the model

5) consolidate the model

NOTE: The consolidation is cancelled but the user does not know why

6) select Repository\Connection information

NOTE: it shows that you are connected to the repository via the proxy that has been shutdown.

684813 NFR: Classes should not be replicated. Causes problems with "drop route"
684817 Suppose a primary table contains some integer columns, and it does not have a replication definition. There is some performance impact if both the meta data reduction feature and HVAR feature are enabled. To avoid that performance impact, the user could create a replication definition with the SEND STANDBY REPLICATION DEFINITION clause for the affected table.
