DBMS_REPCAT.CREATE_MASTER_REPOBJECT

Synopsis

The CREATE_MASTER_REPOBJECT procedure adds a new replicated object to an existing replication group.

PROCEDURE DBMS_REPCAT.CREATE_MASTER_REPOBJECT(
   sname IN VARCHAR2,
   oname IN VARCHAR2,
   type IN VARCHAR2,
   use_existing_object IN BOOLEAN := TRUE,
   ddl_text IN VARCHAR2 := NULL,
   comment IN VARCHAR2 := '',
   retry IN BOOLEAN := FALSE,
   copy_rows IN BOOLEAN := TRUE,
   gname IN VARCHAR2 := '');

It is generally easier to instantiate objects that you intend to replicate at all participating master sites before calling CREATE_MASTER_REPOBJECT. This avoids the additional time and complexity of having the procedure create and populate the replicated objects itself.

Parameters

Parameter Name	Description
sname	Name of the schema to which oname belongs.
oname	Name of the object to be added.
type	Object type. Valid types: TABLE, INDEX, SYNONYM, TRIGGER, VIEW, PROCEDURE, FUNCTION, PACKAGE, and PACKAGE BODY.
use_existing_object	Set to TRUE to reuse existing objects with the same name and structure at master sites.
ddl_text	Text of DDL statement to create object oname (use this parameter if and only if object does not already exist).
comment	Comment on replicated object, visible in DBA_REPOBJECT data dictionary view.
retry	Flag indicating that this call is a reattempt of an earlier call. An attempt is made to create object only at master sites where it does not exist with a status of VALID.
copy_rows	Populate tables and other master sites with data from master definition ...
