In batch mode, the PowerExchange Logger process shuts down after it reaches the end-of-log (EOL) and waits for the interval that is specified in the NO_DATA_WAIT2 parameter of the pwxccl configuration file without receiving additional change data.
Use batch mode in the following situations:
You run the PowerExchange Logger on a scheduled basis, after batch applications that update the database complete.
You run the PowerExchange Logger manually for testing or other purposes.
To enable batch mode, set the COLL_END_LOG parameter to 1 in the pwxccl configuration file.
When you run the PowerExchange Logger in batch mode, use batch extraction mode for any workflows that extract change data from the PowerExchange Logger log files.
