Paul - The only book I've found specific to Oracle replication is: Oracle
Distributed Systems by Charles Dye. It is pretty good. Replication isn't the
easiest thing to learn.
The fundamental questions to ask are: is your application designed
to work with replication? Are you just trying to replicate for reporting
purposes?

Hi folks,
we've never identified any requirement here for using any kind of
replication. Consequently I know nothing whatsoever about Oracle
Replication. Now I've been asked whether or not we use Oracle Replication
and, if so, whether it can be disabled. So can anyone tell me whether
Replication is a feature automatically included in Oracle 8i Enterprise
Edition? And is there an easy way of telling whether or not it's "on"? If
it's "on", can it be turned "off" (if that's a meaningful question!), and if
so, how?
I've tried briefly RTFMing, but although the manuals contain a wealth of
info about how to use Replication, I can see nothing about how to tell
whether it's active or not, and how to switch it on or off. Any pointers,
please, anyone?
