In the process of data replication using Oracle GoldenGate the first step is assuring that all the needed information has been written to the database redo log. By default the database does not write all the information that might be needed by the replication process. That’s why some additional supplemental logging is needed.

According to the documentation supplemental logging is being added by the ADD TRANDATA command. A very good research about this subject has been made by Julian Dyke in the article about adding supplemental logging. But what does the  GoldenGate command actually do and which options should be used?

1. ENVIRONMENT

This research has been made on Oracle Database 12.1.0.2 and GoldenGate 12.2.0.1 on Linux64 platform.The source database is in ARCHIVELOG mode and has FORCE LOGGING and SUPPLEMENTAL LOGGING turned on. I have created a test replication in two variants: one with primary key, and one without (but with an unique index). The source schema is:

CREATE TABLE usr.reptable(

  repB CHAR(4) NOT NULL,
  refA CHAR(4) NOT NULL,
  refB CHAR(4) NOT NULL,
  uni1 CHAR(4) NOT NULL,
  uni2 CHAR(4) NOT NULL,
  ind1 CHAR(4) NOT NULL,
  ind2 CHAR(4) NOT NULL,
  col1 CHAR(4) NOT NULL,
  col2 CHAR(4) NOT NULL
);
 
-- variant 1
ALTER TABLE usr.reptable ADD CONSTRAINT reptablePK PRIMARY KEY(repA, repB);
-- variant 2
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX usr.reptablePK2 ON usr.reptable(repA, repB);
 
ALTER TABLE usr.reptable ADD CONSTRAINT reptableUK UNIQUE(uni1, uni2);
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX usr.reptableIdx ON usr.reptable(ind1, ind2);
 
CREATE TABLE usr.reftable(
  refA CHAR(4) NOT NULL,
  refB CHAR(4) NOT NULL,
  col1 CHAR(4) NOT NULL
);
ALTER TABLE usr.reftable ADD CONSTRAINT reftablePK PRIMARY KEY (refA, refB);
 
ALTER TABLE usr.reptable ADD CONSTRAINT reptableFKreftable FOREIGN KEY(refA, refB)
  REFERENCES usr.reftable(refA, refB);

The tables have been populated with data :

INSERT INTO usr.reptable VALUES ('XXX5', 'YYYY', 'AAAA', 'BBBB', 'XXX5', 'YYYY', 
  'KKK5', 'LLLL', 'VVVV', 'QQQQ');
commit;

To check what is really going on I have created a replication of the tables. On the target site the table structure is:

In other words, the replication configuration allows to check what is really written to the redo log as the before and target image of the table during UPDATE command.

2. TEST

According to the documentation the ADD TRANDATA command stripped just to Oracle parameters has syntax:

1
2
3
4
ADD TRANDATA {[container.]owner.table | schema.table} 
[, NOSCHEDULINGCOLS | ALLCOLS] 
[, COLS (COLUMNS)] 
[, NOKEY]

So, actually there are 3 modes: default (no parameter), NOSCHEDULINGCOLS and ALLCOLS. And there are 2 additional optional parameters: COLS and NOKEY. This command has no information on what is about to be used as PRIMARY KEY in the TABLE command used by Extract parameter file.

So actually there are 18 test cases:

  1. (no add trandata command)
  2. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable
  3. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable, COLS(col1)
  4. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable, NOKEY
  5. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable, COLS(col1), NOKEY
  6. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable, NOSCHEDULINGCOLS
  7. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable, NOSCHEDULINGCOLS, COLS(col1)
  8. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable, NOSCHEDULINGCOLS, NOKEY
  9. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable, NOSCHEDULINGCOLS, COLS(col1), NOKEY
  10. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable, ALLCOLS
  11. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable, ALLCOLS, COLS(col1)
  12. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable, ALLCOLS, NOKEY
  13. ADD TRANDATA usr.reptable, ALLCOLS, COLS(col1), NOKEY
  14. ALTER TABLE “USR”.”REPTABLE” ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG DATA (PRIMARY KEY) COLUMNS;
  15. ALTER TABLE “USR”.”REPTABLE” ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG DATA (UNIQUE) COLUMNS;
  16. ALTER TABLE “USR”.”REPTABLE” ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG DATA (FOREIGN KEY) COLUMNS;
  17. ALTER TABLE “USR”.”REPTABLE” ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG GROUP “GGS_xxx” (“COL1″,”COL2”) ALWAYS;
  18. ALTER TABLE “USR”.”REPTABLE” ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG DATA (ALL) COLUMNS;

I have added the last 5 tests (issued not using GoldenGate but directly in the database) to check what is the exact relationship between ADD TRANDATA and ALTER TABLE commands. Some of them are contradictory, but … all those combinations are actually accepted by GoldenGate. So let’s look at the results:

3. RESULTS

I						      XXX7 YYYY AAAA BBBB XXX7 YYYY KKK7 LLLL VVVV QQQQ

It looks like, that without adding any supplemental logging at the table level, by default:

  • for update operation – the before value is available (from the undo)
  • for update operation – the after value is available (from the redo)
  • for insert operations – all values are available (from the redo)
  • for delete operations – all values are available (from the undo)

What is interesting is, that both values for INSERT and DELETE are available in the @AFTER image.

The second interesting thing is that in the second variant (when there is not primary key), the primary key is identified by GoldenGate from the second unique index (reptableIdx), not the first (reptablePK2). It seems that the index with alphabetically first columns (ind1, ind2) is preferred than the other one (repA, repB). Not sure at this moment, who made the decission – database or GoldeGate.

TEST 2 – ADD TRANDATA USR.REPTABLE

Tracing shows that GoldenGate issues in the database (variant with PK):

1
2
ALTER TABLE "USR"."REPTABLE" ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG DATA (PRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE, FOREIGN KEY) COLUMNS;
ALTER TABLE "USR"."REPTABLE" ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG GROUP "GGS_xxx" ("REPA","REPB") ALWAYS;

ALTER TABLE "USR"."REPTABLE" ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG DATA (PRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE, FOREIGN KEY) COLUMNS;
ALTER TABLE "USR"."REPTABLE" ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG GROUP "GGS_xxx" ("IND1","IND2") ALWAYS;

The default ADD TRANDATA command causes that the primary key is written to the redo log every time. If part of Rerefence Key, Unique Index or Unique Constraint is modified, the whole key is also written to the redo log. What is worth noticing, is that the ALTER TABLE command has been issued twice – one with LOG DATA PRIMARY KEY and once for all the columns that the primary key contains of.

The second variant – without the primary key on the table is more interesting. It seems that the database itself has identified the first created unique index (reptablePK2) as the primary key. Then GoldenGate has identified the second index (reptableIdx) as the primary key. As a result – both keys (repA, repB) and (ind1, ind2) are added to every change in the redo log.

TEST 3 – ADD TRANDATA USR.REPTABLE, COLS(COL1)

4. CONCLUSIONS

The table shows a summary of ADD TRANDATA parameters:

ADD TRANDATA …DATA (xxx) COLUMNSGROUP (xxx) ALWAYSDATA (ALL) COLUMNS
(no add trandata command)
(without parameters)PRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE, FOREIGN KEYPK cols or first unique index cols
COLS(col1)PRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE, FOREIGN KEYPK cols or first unique index cols + col1
NOKEYUNIQUE, FOREIGN KEYALL
COLS(col1), NOKEYUNIQUE, FOREIGN KEYcol1
NOSCHEDULINGCOLSPK cols or first unique index cols
NOSCHEDULINGCOLS, COLS(col1)PK cols or first unique index cols + col1
NOSCHEDULINGCOLS, NOKEYALL
NOSCHEDULINGCOLS, COLS(col1), NOKEYcol1
ALLCOLSPRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE, FOREIGN KEYPK cols or first unique index colsALL
ALLCOLS, COLS(col1)PRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE, FOREIGN KEYPK cols or first unique index cols + col1ALL
ALLCOLS, NOKEYUNIQUE, FOREIGN KEYALL twice
ALLCOLS, COLS(col1), NOKEYUNIQUE, FOREIGN KEYcol1ALL

Conclusions:

  1. By default ADD TRANDATA causes:
    • executing LOG DATA (PRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE, FOREIGN KEY) COLUMNS
    • executing LOG GROUP (key1, key2) COLUMNS
    • so actually the primary key supplemental logging is added twice: one with the LOG DATA and one with the LOG GROUP command
    • by default it also adds the conditional UNIQUE and FOREIGN KEY
  2. The NOSCHEDULINGCOLS causes:
    • removing LOG DATA (PRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE, FOREIGN KEY) COLUMNS
    • it is strange, because it also removes the LOG DATA(PRIMARY KEY), which is an unconditional logging
    • but it adds the primary key using the LOG GROUP(key1, key2) – by specifying explicitly the primary key columns
  3. The NOKEY causes:
    • removing LOG DATA(PRIMARY KEY)
    • removing the LOG GROUP(key1, key2) with the primary key columns
    • when ALLCOLS is used: adding additional DATA (ALL) COLUMNS
  4. The COLS(col1) causes:
    • removing LOG DATA(key1, key2) with the primary key
    • if ALLCOLS or NOSCHEDULING is not used then removing  DATA(ALL) COLUMNS
  5. The database works differently than GoldenGate:
    • when the primary key is missing Database chooses the first created unique index (probably with lower obj#) as primary key – it is logged using DATA(PRIMARY KEY)
    • when the primary key is missing Oracle GoldenGate chooses the first alphabeticaly sorted unique index as primary key
