23 Replication Catalog Views

When you install replication capabilities at a site, Oracle installs the replication catalog, which consists of tables and views, at that site.

This chapter contains this topic:

Caution:

Do not modify the replication catalog tables directly. Instead, use the procedures provided in the DBMS_REPCAT package.

See Also:

Chapter 10, "Monitoring a Replication Environment"

Summary of Replication Catalog Views

Many data dictionary tables have three corresponding views:

The columns of the ALL_, DBA_, and USER_ views corresponding to a single data dictionary table are usually nearly identical. Therefore, these views are described in full only once in this chapter (for the ALL_ view). The views are listed without the full description for DBA_ and USER_ views, but differences are noted.

As shown in Figure 23-1, the replication catalog views are used by master sites and materialized view sites to determine such information as what objects are being replicated, where they are being replicated, and if any errors have occurred during replication. Table 23-1 lists all of the replication catalog views.

DBA_REGISTERED_MVIEW_GROUPS

DBA_REGISTERED_MVIEW_GROUPS lists all the registered materialized view groups at the master site or master materialized view site.

Column Data Type NULL Description
NAME VARCHAR2(30) - Name of the materialized view replication group
MVIEW_SITE VARCHAR2(128) - Site of the materialized view replication group
GROUP_COMMENT VARCHAR2(80) - Description of the materialized view replication group
VERSION VARCHAR2(8) - Oracle version of the materialized view replication group

Note: Oracle9i Database or later materialized view groups show Oracle8.

FNAME VARCHAR2(30) - Name of the flavor of the materialized view group
OWNER VARCHAR2(30) - Owner of the materialized view replication group


ALL_REPCAT_REFRESH_TEMPLATES

Contains global information about each deployment template accessible to the current user, such as the template name, template owner, what refresh group the template objects belong to, and the type of template (private or public).

When the DBA adds materialized view definitions to the template container, the DBA references the appropriate REFRESH_TEMPLATE_NAME. Any materialized views added to a specific template are added to the refresh group specified in REFRESH_GROUP_NAME.

Furthermore, deployment templates created as public are available to all users who can connect to the master site. Deployment templates created as private are limited to those users listed in the ALL_REPCAT_USER_AUTHORIZATIONS view.

Related Views:

Column Data Type NULL Description
REFRESH_TEMPLATE_NAME VARCHAR2(30) - Name of the deployment template.
OWNER VARCHAR2(30) - Owner of the deployment template.
REFRESH_GROUP_NAME VARCHAR2(30) - Name of the refresh group to which the template objects are added during the instantiation process.
TEMPLATE_COMMENT VARCHAR2(2000) - User supplied comment.
PUBLIC_TEMPLATE VARCHAR2(1) - If Y then the deployment template is public.

If N then the deployment template is private.



ALL_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_OBJECTS

Contains the individual object definitions that are contained in each deployment template accessible to the current user. Individual objects are added to a template by specifying the target template in REFRESH_TEMPLATE_NAME.

DDL_TEXT can contain variables to create parameterized templates. Variables are created by placing a colon (:) at the beginning of the variable name (for example, :region). Templates that use parameters allow for greater flexibility during the template instantiation process (that is, in defining data sets specific for a materialized view site).

When the object is added to the template, the specified DDL is examined and if any parameters have been defined, Oracle automatically adds the parameter to the ALL_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_PARMS view.

Related Views:

Column Data Type NULL Description
REFRESH_TEMPLATE_NAME VARCHAR2(30) NOT NULL The name of the deployment template.
OBJECT_NAME VARCHAR2(30) NOT NULL The name of the deployment template object.
OBJECT_TYPE VARCHAR2(17) - The object type of the deployment template object:
FUNCTION           MATERIALIZED VIEW
INDEX              SYNONYM
INDEXTYPE          TABLE
OPERATOR           TRIGGER
PACKAGE            TYPE
PACKAGE BODY       TYPE BODY
PROCEDURE          VIEW 
DDL_NUM NUMBER NOT NULL Indicates the order in which to execute the DDL statements stored in the DDL_TEXT column when multiple DDL statements are used to create the object.
DDL_TEXT CLOB(4000) - The DDL that is executed to create the deployment template object.
MASTER_ROLLBACK_SEGMENT VARCHAR2(30) - The name of the rollback segment that is used during the instantiation of the deployment template object.
DERIVED_FROM_SNAME VARCHAR2(30) - If applicable, displays the schema that contains the object from which the template object was created.
DERIVED_FROM_ONAME VARCHAR2(30) - If applicable, displays the name of the object from which the template object was created.
FLAVOR_ID NUMBER - The flavor ID of the deployment template object.

Because the DDL_TEXT column is defined as a CLOB, you receive an error if you simply try to perform a SELECT on the ALL_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_OBJECTS view. If you do not need to see the object DDL, then use the following select statement (be sure to exclude the DDL_TEXT parameter):

SELECT REFRESH_TEMPLATE_NAME, OBJECT_NAME, OBJECT_TYPE, MASTER_ROLLBACK_SEG, 
FLAVOR_ID FROM DBA_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_OBJECTS;

The following script uses cursors and the DBMS_LOB package to view the entire contents of the ALL_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_OBJECTS view. Use this script to view the entire contents of the ALL_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_OBJECTS view, including the DDL_TEXT column:

SET SERVEROUTPUT ON

DECLARE
  CURSOR mycursor IS
        SELECT REFRESH_TEMPLATE_NAME, OBJECT_NAME, OBJECT_TYPE, DDL_TEXT,
          MASTER_ROLLBACK_SEG, FLAVOR_ID
          FROM DBA_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_OBJECTS;
  tempstring VARCHAR2(1000);
  len NUMBER;
BEGIN
  FOR myrec IN mycursor LOOP
        len := DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(myrec.ddl_text);

  END LOOP;
END;
/

ALL_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_PARMS

Contains parameters defined in the object DDL for all templates accessible to the current user. When an object is added to a template, the DDL is examined for variables. Any found parameters are automatically added to this view.

You can also define default parameter values and a prompt string in this view. These can make the templates easier to use during the instantiation process.

Related Views:

Column Data Type NULL Description
REFRESH_TEMPLATE_NAME VARCHAR2(30) NOT NULL The name of the deployment template.
OWNER VARCHAR2(30) NOT NULL The owner of the deployment template.

PROMPT_STRING VARCHAR2(2000) - The prompt string for the parameter.
USER_OVERRIDE VARCHAR2(1) - If Y then the user can override the default parameter value.

If N then the user cannot override the default parameter value.


Because the DEFAULT_PARM_VALUE column is defined as a CLOB, you receive an error if you simply try to perform a SELECT on the ALL_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_PARMS view. If you do not need to see the default parameter value, then use the following select statement (be sure to exclude DEFAULT_PARM_VALUE):

SELECT REFRESH_TEMPLATE_NAME, OWNER, REFRESH_GROUP_NAME, TEMPLATE_COMMENT,  
  PUBLIC_TEMPLATE, PARAMETER_NAME, PROMPT_STRING, USER_OVERRIDE 
  FROM DBA_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_PARMS;

The following script uses cursors and the DBMS_LOB package to view the entire contents of the ALL_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_PARMS view. Use this script to view the entire contents of the ALL_REPCAT_TEMPLATE_PARMS view, including the DEFAULT_PARM_VALUE column:

SET SERVEROUTPUT ON

ALL_REPCAT_USER_PARM_VALUES

This view describes the template parameters for all deployment templates accessible to the current user. The DBA has the option of building a table of user parameters prior to distributing the template for instantiation. When a template is instantiated by a specified user, the values stored in the ALL_REPCAT_USER_PARM_VALUES view for the specified user are used automatically.

Related Views:

Column Data Type NULL Description

USER_REPOBJECT

The USER_REPOBJECT view contains information about the objects owned by the current user in each replication group. An object can belong to only one replication group. A replication group can span multiple schemas. Its columns are the same as those in ALL_REPOBJECT.


USER_REPPARAMETER_COLUMN

In addition to the information contained in the USER_REPRESOLUTION view, the USER_REPPARAMETER_COLUMN view contains information about the columns that are used to resolve conflicts for each replicated table owned by the current user. These are the column values that are passed as the list_of_column_names argument to the ADD_conflicttype_RESOLUTION procedures in the DBMS_REPCAT package. Its columns are the same as those in ALL_REPPARAMETER_COLUMN.

Note:

The SNAME column is not present in the USER_REPPARAMETER_COLUMN view. This column is available in the ALL_REPPARAMETER_COLUMN and DBA_REPPARAMETER_COLUMN views.

USER_REPPRIORITY

The USER_REPPRIORITY view contains the value and priority level of each priority group member in each priority group owned by the current user. Priority group names must be unique within a replication group. Priority levels and values must each be unique within a given priority group. Its columns are the same as those in ALL_REPPRIORITY.

Note:

The SNAME column is not present in the USER_REPPRIORITY view. This column is available in the ALL_REPPRIORITY and DBA_REPPRIORITY views.

USER_REPPRIORITY_GROUP

The USER_REPPRIORITY_GROUP view describes the priority group or site priority group defined for each replication group owned by the current user. Its columns are the same as those in ALL_REPPRIORITY_GROUP.


USER_REPPROP

The USER_REPPROP view indicates the technique used to propagate operations on each replicated object to the same object at another master site. These operations might have resulted from a call to a stored procedure or procedure wrapper, or might have been issued against a table directly. This view shows objects owned by the current user. Its columns are the same as those in ALL_REPPROP.


USER_REPRESOL_STATS_CONTROL

The USER_REPRESOL_STATS_CONTROL view describes statistics collection for conflict resolutions for all replicated tables owned by the current user. Its columns are the same as those in ALL_REPRESOL_STATS_CONTROL.

Note:

The SNAME column is not present in the USER_REPRESOL_STATS_CONTROL view. This column is available in the ALL_REPRESOL_STATS_CONTROL and DBA_REPRESOL_STATS_CONTROL views.

USER_REPRESOLUTION

The USER_REPRESOLUTION view indicates the methods used to resolve update, uniqueness, or delete conflicts for each table owned by the current user that is replicated using row-level replication for a given schema. Its columns are the same as those in ALL_REPRESOLUTION.

Note:

The SNAME column is not present in the USER_REPREPRESOLUTION view. This column is available in the ALL_REPREPRESOLUTION and DBA_REPREPRESOLUTION views.

USER_REPRESOLUTION_METHOD

The USER_REPRESOLUTION_METHOD view lists all of the conflict resolution methods available in the database. Initially, this view lists the standard methods provided with the advanced replication facility. As you create new user functions and add them as conflict resolution methods for an object in the database, these functions are added to this view. Its columns are the same as those in ALL_REPRESOLUTION_METHOD.


USER_REPRESOLUTION_STATISTICS

The USER_REPRESOLUTION_STATISTICS view lists information about successfully resolved update, uniqueness, and delete conflicts for all replicated tables owned by the current user. These statistics are only gathered for a table if you have called the DBMS_REPCAT.REGISTER_STATISTICS procedure. The USER_REPRESOLUTION_STATISTICS view's columns are the same as those in ALL_REPRESOLUTION_STATISTICS.

Note:

The SNAME column is not present in the USER_REPRESOLUTION_STATISTICS view. This column is available in the ALL_REPRESOLUTION_STATISTICS and DBA_REPRESOLUTION_STATISTICS views.

USER_REPSITES

The USER_REPSITES view lists the members of each replication group owned by the current user. Its columns are the same as those in ALL_REPSITES.
