OWB Support for Change Data Capture

Hi All,
Has anyone got OWB working with the Change Data Capture feature in the Oracle 9i database? I understand that CDC works by publishing changes through an advanced queue, which in theory OWB 9.0.4 upwards can have as a data source, but there doesn't appear to be any explicit support within the GUI for capturing CDC changes.
I'm also working on the assumption that we're talking about Synchronous CDC as found in 9i. 10g comes with Asynchronous CDC which I guess presents a different interface to the receiving program.
So - is there any support for 9i Change Data Capture in OWB, and has anyone got this to work in practice?
thanks
Mark

Mark,
There is currently no explicit support for the 9i CDC. You can use Advanced Queues to propagate the changes, but you will have to custom-build the capture infrastructure on the source side (set up the CDC, enqueue the changes in the appropriate form into the AQ etc.)
OWB will explicitly support CDC (10g async, which is the least invasinve method) in our next major release currently scheduled to be release in November of this year.

Bug in SQL Server 2008 R2 for Change Data Capture (CDC)

I'm pretty sure I've encountered a bug in SQL Server 2008 R2 that's been fixed in 2012, regarding changing the design of a database using CDC. With CDC disabled on a table with sys.sp_cdc_disable_table, I can add a column or change a column's data
type, but when I call sp_rename, on 2008 R2 I'm getting "Cannot alter column 'xxx' because it is 'REPLICATED'.", even though the table's properties shows "Table is replicated" as False. In 2012, works fine.
Even calling sys.sp_cdc_disable_db didn't prevent this error.

Upgrade of Database with Oracle Change Data Capture

Hello,
We are upgrading and moving our database to a different server.
The move is from 10G R1 database on Solaris to 11G R2 on Linux.
Our database uses Oracle Change Data Capture.
What is the best way to perform this migration? Unlike in the approach below, ideally, it would be without any manual steps to drop and recreate CDC subscriptions, change tables, etc.
Thanks.
Considerations for Exporting and Importing Change Data Capture Objects
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B13789_01/server.101/b10736/cdc.htm#i1027532
Starting in Oracle Databse 10g, Oracle Data Pump is the supported export and import utility for Change Data Capture. Change Data Capture change sources, change sets, change tables, and subscriptions are exported and imported by the Oracle Data Pump expdp and impdp commands with the following restrictions:
After a Data Pump full database import operation completes for a database containing AutoLog Change Data Capture objects, the following steps must be performed to restore these objects:
1. The publisher must manually drop the change tables with the SQL DROP TABLE command. This is needed because the tables are imported without the accompanying Change Data Capture metadata.
2. The publisher must re-create the AutoLog change sources, change sets, and change tables using the appropriate DBMS_CDC_PUBLISH procedures.
3. Subscribers must re-create their subscriptions to the AutoLog change sets.

Hello,
I opened SR with Oracle Support, they are suggesting to perform full database import/export
Change Data Capture change sources, change sets, change tables, and subscriptions are exported and imported by the Oracle Data Pump expdp and impdp commands with the following restrictions.
Change Data Capture objects are exported and imported only as part of full database export and import operations (those in which the expdp and impdb commands specify the FULL=y parameter). Schema-level import and export operations include some underlying objects (for example, the table underlying a change table), but not the Change Data Capture metadata needed for change data capture to occur."
CDC has different implementation methods:
You may use the below query to determine-
select SOURCE_NAME, SOURCE_DESCRIPTION, CREATED, SOURCE_TYPE, SOURCE_DATABASE, SOURCE_ENABLED from change_sources;
– Synchronous CDC: with this implementation method you capture changes
synchronously on the source database into change tables. This method uses
internal database triggers to enable CDC. Capturing the change is part of the
original transaction that introduces the change thus impacting the performance
of the transaction.
– Asynchronous Autolog CDC: this implementation method requires a staging
database separate from the source database. Asynchronous Autolog CDC uses
the database's redo transport services to transport redo log information from
the source database to the staging database1. Changes are captured at the
staging database. The impact to the source system is minimal, but there is some
latency between the original transaction and the change being captured.
As suggested in the document-
Change Data Capture objects are exported and imported only as part of full database export and import operations (those in which the expdp and impdb commands specify the FULL=y parameter). Schema-level import and export
operations include some underlying objects (for example, the table underlying a change table), but not the Change Data Capture metadata needed for change data capture to occur.
■ AutoLog change sources, change sets, and change tables are not supported.
Starting in Oracle Database 10g, Oracle Data Pump is the supported export and import utility for Change Data Capture.
Re-Creating AutoLog Change Data Capture Objects After an Import Operation
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14223/cdc.htm#i1027532
After a Data Pump full database import operation completes for a database containing AutoLog Change Data Capture objects, the following steps must be performed to restore these objects:
a. The publisher must manually drop the database objects underlying AutoLog Change Data Capture objects.
b. The publisher must re-create the AutoLog change sources, change sets, and change tables using the appropriate DBMS_CDC_PUBLISH procedures.
c. Subscribers must re-create their subscriptions to the AutoLog change sets.

Change Data Capture HELP URGENT

I have read all the Oracle Documentation for Change Data Capture, however I have been unable to find some specific things, the first one being: is it possible for another Oracle DB to be a subscriber to the changes published in CDC? If so, how can this be done?
I have several databases that are going to be changing constantly and I need to integrate all those changes to one specific target DB how can I set up my target DB to gather the changes published from all the other databases? is it even possible? can it be done automatically? or do I have to create a separate interface (like a java based application) to gather those changes in some way from the subscriber views enqueue them, process them ,and then apply them to my target DB?
Some help will be appreciated a lot!
Thanks.
Angel M.

You won't get help if you put URGENT in your subject.
Everyone here donates their time and offers help on a purely voluntary, goodwill basis.
If you want something answered urgently, you visit metalink and ask your support questions of the Oracle support staff whom you pay to provide you with a service of which you can quite legitimately make service-level demands.
Otherwise, you wait your turn here and don't try to jump the queue by claiming urgency and priority you aren't paying for.

Change Data Capture, insert+delete instead of update

Hello everyone,
I'm having an odd issue, that I need some help understanding. I've got a number of tables enabled for Change Data Capture, but I've noticed some behavior that doesn't make sense.
I am utilizing CDC to populate an ODS via SSIS packages, and have noticed a few instances where I'm getting a delete operation come through, but the source record still exists. In the source system, I can query 'cdc.fn_cdc_get_net_changes_...'
and see combinations of 1 (delete) and 4 (update new) for the __$operation.
__$start_lsn, __$operation, TableId, ...
0x000BB75700002F250005, 1, 1938241
0x000BB75700002F250005, 4, 1938241
Also, if I query the cdc.<Table>_CT table directly, I see pairs of 1 and 2 (insert) for the same __$start_lsn and __$seqval. How can this happen? If I get *net* changes, shouldn't I only get one record back per the primary
key of the source table?
__$start_lsn, __$seqval, __$operation, __$update_mask, TableId, ...
0x000BB75700002E7C0005, 0x000BB75700002E7C0003, 1, 0x0FFF, 1938241
0x000BB75700002E7C0005, 0x000BB75700002E7C0003, 2, 0x0FFF, 1938241
0x000BB75700002F250005, 0x000BB75700002F250003, 1, 0x0FFF, 1938241
0x000BB75700002F250005, 0x000BB75700002F250003, 2, 0x0FFF, 1938241
Let me say, I've got a trace going to see if I can find the command(s) that is causing the duplicate results, but has anyone ever seen this before?
Thanks in advance for your time and help!
Jarret

This is called a deffered update. It is the way that some tables are updated - ie a delete followed by an insert.
See if the behavior still occurs when using trace flag 8201, ie
DBCC TRACEON (8207, -1)

Change Data Capture in SQL Server

Post Author: rtamanji
CA Forum: Data Integration
I am having primary key constraint problems whenever there is a failure during the data flow from the source to the target, and I have to restart the process. It looks like check points only occurs if the data flows completely ends. How often are these check points initiated ? The AL table keeps track of this value, is there a similarly table to determine the last record read ? Or does DI reads the entire Repcmd table using the last xact_seqno stored ? Thanks for any information.

It is not using triggers. The source is the transaction log.
Related link:
Basics of Change Data Capture
...The source of change data for change data capture is the SQL Server transaction log. As inserts, updates, and deletes are applied to tracked source tables, entries that describe those
changes are added to the log. The log serves as input to the change data capture capture process. This reads the log and adds information about changes to the tracked table’s associated change table. Functions are provided to enumerate
the changes that appear in the change tables over a specified range, returning the information in the form of a filtered result set. The filtered result set is typically used by an application process to update a representation of the source in some external
environment. ...

Hallo Mohammad,
that's not a good advice because the stored procedure is a system procedure and not visible :).
Try to find it in master or the database itself - it will fail!

Syncronous Change Data Capture.

Hi, I am looking for a TRIGGER and a MATERIALIZED VIEW code snippet for change data capture. I am supposed to:
1. Pull changed data from a table over DB link. I require code snippet for such a TRIGGER which would capture the changed data and then I can use the trigger to pull the change data.
2. Pull data from a complex SQL over DB link. I require materialized view code snippet which uses the extraction SQL. The materialized view will be in source DB.
Please share the code snippets for the above two scenario.
Thanks.
P.S. - Pls do not post links to Oracle website to help.

I suggest, before you start coding, have a read of the concepts guide on MV's.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10713/schemaob.htm#CNCPT411
You need to understand the significance of LOGS and the difference between COMPLEX and NON-COMPLEX views and also the built-in package DBMS_MVIEW before you delve into creating anything.

Can CDC (Change Data Capture) Can be used for Audit / Trail Purposes

Hi,
My question is bit subjective in nature. I playing around with CDC to implement a Database Auditing solution and it's seems to be working fine. However my question is for experts and for those who have already used CDC for this purpose. Is it feasible to
use it for Data Auditing? Has anybody successfully used it? Any important considerations or configurations you have worked out e.g. CDC cleanup time etc
I will highly appreciate any feed back.
Thanks,
Ali

Change Data Capture for XML

We have an XML file being created every week on the mainframe. This file is loaded to Oracle Database. Initially we were performing a refresh of a table, due to business reasons, we need to load only the changes from this XML file to our stage database.
Then, the changes incorporated to the stage needs to be applied to our warehouse database.
Is this possible? We cannot implement Change Data Capture on the Mainframe side.

>
they are not oracle DBs anyway
>
Then why are you posting in an Oracle forum and using Oracle terms like 'change data capture'?
>
3. don't want to serialize my inserts because since I am not sure I can keep up with the insert rate
>
That doesn't even make any sense. Oracle can generate sequence numbers faster than you can use them. Just put a trigger on the tables.
You need to provide an example and explain how the data gets into a DB and how it gets out.

CDC (Change Data Capture) with 2 Tables

Hello,
i want to use the change data capture for the typical Data Warehousing progress (bring the new or updatet table from source to the staging area)
So i have implemented a mapping with to tables. The source table is S_Account, the target or staging table is W_Account_DS.
I have connected/mapped the tables and in the next step i goes into property inspector of W_ACCOUNT_DS into the Area Change Data Capture --> Change Data Capture Filter and put into the follow expression Builder
Select *
from S_Acccount
where INOUTGRP1.LAST_UPD_DT = CURRENT_DATE (<-- Validation Succesful)
and the next Step i make Enabeled is true in the Change Data Capture Area. So i think it should ready for one test case.
I set in SQL Developer with an update statement the LAST_UPD_DT at 28.03.2012 in this case he should not update/insert anything, right? But he insert the full table.
I set in SQL Developer with an update statement the LAST_UPD_DT by 2 Columms to 28.03.2012 in this case he should update he should update the full table - 2 columns with the date 28.03.2012, right?
So what make i wrong or have i forgotten anything? (must set keys by the tables? I think not! If yes why?)
Must i set anything properties else? Why doesnt´work it?
I look forward for your replies :)

Setting up CDC is a fairly complex process with different options. Setting just the filter in OWB is only a very small part.
There is a blog post below on how to use code templates to do CDC which gives some insight;

Change data capture - ignore delete?

Hello,
I'm trying to solve an issue I met on a synchronous change data capture : I created a CDC table with the DBMS_LOGMNR_CDC_PUBLISH.CREATE_CHANGE_TABLE procedure:
BEGIN
   DBMS_LOGMNR_CDC_PUBLISH.CREATE_CHANGE_TABLE (
      OWNER             => 'APPO',
      CHANGE_TABLE_NAME => 'CT_TEMP_H1',
      CHANGE_SET_NAME   => 'SYNC_SET',
      SOURCE_SCHEMA     => 'APPO',
      SOURCE_TABLE      => 'TEMP_H1',
      COLUMN_TYPE_LIST => 'ISSUE VARCHAR2(10), TITOLO VARCHAR2(150)',
      CAPTURE_VALUES    => 'BOTH',
      RS_ID             => 'Y',
      ROW_ID            => 'N',
      USER_ID           => 'N',
      TIMESTAMP         => 'N',
      OBJECT_ID         => 'N',
      SOURCE_COLMAP     => 'Y',
      TARGET_COLMAP     => 'Y',
      OPTIONS_STRING    => NULL)
END;
Now, it works correctly, and in the CT_TEMP_H1 table I can find all the information about changes that occourr in the TEMP_H1 table
What I'd like to know is if there is a way to avoid the capture "trigger" to fire in the event of DELETE records: due to the application business logic, I'm interested just in insert and updates on the source table, and I don't mind about delete(s), so I don't want them to consume resources (both disk space and CPU) on the server.
Is there a supported way to do so?
Thanks in advance,
- Paolo

Thanks for your answer, Damorgan,
But the CAPTURE_VALUES parameter only manages the UPDATE issues, to have one row containing the row values before the update occurred and another row containing the row values after the update occurred.
What I'm interested in is aviod logging in the change table all the delete operations occourring in the source tables (a sort of "afert indert or update" trigger, instead of the "insert, update or delete"...)
Any hint?
- Paolo
