Performing a healthcheck of a live GoldenGate configuration
Like any technology, once implemented, GoldenGate forms a key part of enterprise infrastructure. It is responsible for synchronizing the state of some data between two or more systems. For a GoldenGate administrator, it is quite important to know the status of replication configuration. This can have an impact on the state of data in the destination system to some extent. In case the administrator finds any issue with the replication, he can then follow corrective measures to fix it and bring the systems back into synchronization. In this recipe, we will look into various steps that you can follow to ensure that a GoldenGate configuration is running fine. This recipe does not cover the steps required to check the performance of a GoldenGate configuration.
How to do it...
The state of a GoldenGate replication can be checked by performing the following steps on both source and target systems:
Check the GoldenGate event logger file
