Starting the PwxCDCPublisher Utility

Starting the PwxCDCPublisher Utility

You can start the PwxCDCPublisher utility from a command prompt at the
pwxcdcpub_root_installation
\bin subdirectory or by using batch file, provided that file system security allows you to run this script. This procedure describes how to start the utility from a command prompt.
Before you start the PwxCDCPublisher, make sure the following prerequisites are met:
  • Ensure that the PowerExchange Listener instances in the PowerExchange environment are running.
  • If the target type is Apache Kafka, ensure that Apache Kafka and Zookeeper are running.
  • If the target type is MapR Streams, ensure that the MapR server is running.
  1. At the command prompt, enter the PwxCDCPublisher command. Include the optional INSTANCE parameter if you want to run the PwxCDCPublisher process using an instance other than the default "instanceA" at
    /
    pwxcdcpub_root installation
    /instanceA
    .
    Use the following syntax:
    PwxCDCPublisher [INSTANCE=
    override_instance_directory
    ] [NOHUP]
    On Linux, you can include NOHUP to run the PwxCDCPublisher as a daemon in the background.
    For the full command syntax, including other optional PwxCDCPublisher parameters, see PwxCDCPublisher Utility - Command and Parameters.
