You know, from a logistics perspective I'm interested in something here that maybe those that use SharePlex can cast some light on.
The only Oracle supported mechanism for mining the redo logs is LogMiner, yes? Now, given that we can change the format of the redo logs from release to release (not sure how granular that goes, so it may even be third digit version changes i.e. something like 8.0.5 to 8.0.6), doesn't it worry you as a SharePlex user that the product may not keep up with changes in the redo log formats and therefore give you garbage? How do you ensure that doesn't happen? Inquiring minds want to know, and all that... Pete "Controlling developers is like herding cats." Kevin Loney, Oracle DBA Handbook "Oh no, it's not.
