Setting a Capture Process Parameter

This topic contains instructions for setting capture process parameters in Enterprise Manager. Capture process parameters control the way a capture process operates. You can set a parameter to change a specific way in which a capture process operates. For example, you can change the parallelism capture process parameter to control the number of processes that capture changes. Typically, you adjust capture process parallelism to achieve the best capture process performance.

To set a capture process parameter: 

1. In Oracle Enterprise Manager, log in to the database as the Oracle Streams administrator.

2. Go to the Database Home page.

3. Click Data Movement to open the Data Movement subpage.

4. Click Manage Replication in the Streams section.

   The Streams page appears, showing the Overview subpage.

5. Click Streams to open the Streams subpage.

6. Select the capture process that you want to modify in the list of components. If necessary, use the search tool to find the capture process, and then select it.

7. Select Edit Parameters in Action.

8. Click Go to open the Edit Capture page.

9. Modify one or more capture process parameters in the Parameters section.

   See Oracle Database PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference for information about the parameters. If you change the parallelism parameter, then the capture process automatically stops and restarts when you click Apply.

10. Click Apply to save your changes.
