Name
DBMS_REPCAT.REPCAT_IMPORT_CHECK
Synopsis
From time to time, you may need to rebuild a master site from an export dump file as either a recovery or maintenance procedure. Because object ID numbers (as seen in SYS.OBJ$.OBJ# and DBA_OBJECTS.OBJECT_ID) change during these rebuilds, Oracle supplies a procedure (REPCAT_IMPORT_CHECK) that you must run immediately after an import of any master site to synchronize the new ID numbers with the data stored in the table SYSTEM.REPCAT$_REPOBJECT. Objects with a status of VALID in REPCAT$_REPOBJECT are not affected.
The specifications differ for Oracle7 and Oracle8 as follows.
Oracle7 specification:
PROCEDURE DBMS_REPCAT.REPCAT_IMPORT_CHECK
(gname IN VARCHAR2 := '',
master IN BOOLEAN,
sname IN VARCHAR2 := '');Oracle8 specification:
PROCEDURE DBMS_REPCAT.REPCAT_IMPORT_CHECK
(gname IN VARCHAR2 := '',
master IN BOOLEAN);There are no restrictions on calling REPCAT_IMPORT_CHECK.
Call REPCAT_IMPORT_CHECK with sname and master set to NULL (or with no parameters) to validate all replication groups at the site.
