Configuring the dbmover Configuration File

In the dbmover configuration file on the system where the capture registrations and CDC control files are stored, add the statements that are required for MySQL CDC. This system is specified in the

Location

field of the registration group definition.

The following statements are also required:

MYSQL CAPI CONNECTION: A named set of parameters that the Consumer API (CAPI) uses to connect to the change stream and control CDC processing for source tables on a MySQL source database server.
CAPT_PATH: Path to the local directory on a Linux or Windows system that stores the control files for CDC.

These files include the CCT file for capture registrations, the CDEP file for application names that are used for ODBC extractions, and the CDCT file for the PowerExchange Logger for Linux, UNIX, and Windows.
CAPT_XTRA: Path to the local directory on a Linux or Windows system that stores the extraction maps for CDC.

If you plan to use continuous extraction mode, you must also include the following statement:

CAPX CAPI_CONNECTION: A named set of parameters that the CAPI uses for continuous extraction of change data from PowerExchange Logger for Linux, UNIX, and Windows log files.

Also, Informatica recommends including the LOGPATH and TRACING statements to make finding messages easier. The LOGPATH statement defines a directory specifically for PowerExchange message log files, and the TRACING statement enables PowerExchange to create an alternative set of message log files for each PowerExchange process.
