Cold Starting the PowerExchange Logger

Use this procedure to cold start the PowerExchange Logger. In the start statement, you must include the parameter COLDSTART=Y.

During a cold start, the PowerExchange Logger deletes the records in the CDCT file.

If you previously ran the PowerExchange Logger and have existing CDCT and log files, retain these files for historical purposes.

You can move or rename the files, as long as another PowerExchange Logger process is not using them. Do not delete them if you want to retain change processing history.

If you delete, move, or rename the CCT file, the capture registrations are no longer available.

In the pwxccl configuration file, set the RESTART_TOKEN and SEQUENCE_TOKEN parameters in a manner that causes the PowerExchange Logger to start from the appropriate point in the change stream.

To cold start the PowerExchange Logger, enter the following command at the command line:

pwxccl coldstart=y

The coldstart parameter must be set to y.

Include the optional config, cs, and license parameters if you want to override the default dbmover.cfg, pwxccl.cfg, and license.key files. On Linux and UNIX systems, you can add an ampersand (&) at the end of the statement to run the PowerExchange Logger in background mode.
