For more information about replicated schemas, see Oracle7 Server Distributed Systems, Volume II.
The following figure illustrates the Schema object list.
Figure 8 - 1. Schema Object List
Name
Name of the replicated schema.
Site Type
Indicates if local database is a Master Definition, Master, or a Snapshot site for the replicated schema.
Status
Indicates if the replicated schema is Normal, Quiescing, or Quiesced.
Objects
Number of replicated objects contained in the schema.
Comment
User comment for the replicated schema.
When you quiesce a replicated schema, the symmetric replication facility:
To quiesce a replicated schema, select the schema to quiesce from the Schema object list and choose Suspend Master Activity from the Schema menu. The Suspend Master Activity alert box appears.
The following figure illustrates the Suspend Master Activity alert box.
Figure 8 - 2. Suspend Master Activity Alert Box
The request to suspend activity is queued at each remote master site and is listed in the Request Log object list at each affected site. At each site, the request is processed automatically by a job queue process. For information about starting up job queue processes, see the Oracle7 Server Administrator's Guide.
Alternatively, you can manually execute the request by choosing Apply Requests for Schema command in the Request menu.
When you Suspend Master Activity for a schema, the status of the schema at the local database initially changes to Quiescing. Its status does not change to Quiesced until the request to suspend activity has been executed at every remote master site of the replicated schema.
The following figure illustrates the Resume Master Activity alert box.
Figure 8 - 3. Resume Master Activity Alert Box
The request to resume activity is queued at each remote site and is listed in the Request Log object list. At each site, the request is executed automatically by a job queue process. For information about starting up job queue processes, see the Oracle7 Server Administrator's Guide.
Alternatively, you can manually execute the request using the Apply Requests for schema command of the Request menu.
Once you execute the Resume Master Activity operation, the schema's status at the local database immediately changes to Normal. The status of a remote site changes to Normal once the request to resume activity is executed at the site.
Note: The status of the master definition site can change to Normal before all remote sites have executed their requests to resume activity.
The Execute DDL property sheet consists of the following pages:
Figure 8 - 4. Master Databases Page of the Execute DDL Property Sheet
