SLT Scenario in question: ECC - SLT- HANA DB

Question

Hello Team,
Issue : I need propose a scenario where we need to recover the data in a table in case of any failure occurs (where point in time recovery is not possible) or there is mismatch in Target database (HANA) when compared to ECC source system.
The following are key constraints:
Re-Replicate the table by stopping the replication and starting  again is not an option.
Data from BW is being replicated on real time and customer has mission critical reporting which does not allow downtime.
        (in case of re-conciliation issue 1 hr downtime may be allowed as exception)
I have reviewed the documentation available and did not find any clear solution (steps) for recovery. How can we recover in the case of above scenario where replicating the tables again is not an option?
Please provide your viewpoint as this will be helpful in fast tracking the solution.
Regards,
Hemanth Aluri

Hi,
If you cannot recover to the last point in time, you can use the
replication logging feature that is available with the DMIS 2011 SP6.
Replication logging can be switched on for  all tables of a
complete configurations via the checkbox ‘Activate Replication Logging’  at
the time  when the configuration is created.
The SLT Application Operation Guide describes:
If you need to activate replication logging for an
existing configuration, or if you want to deactivate replication logging, you
need to adjust some entries in the SAP LT Replication Server configuration
tables.
You can also activate or deactivate replication
logging for specific tables if required.
By default the data retention period is 3 days, you
can change this either generally per configuration or individually per table
