17.12 Replicating Oracle BI Presentation Catalogs

You can copy and merge the contents of selected catalog folders between instances of Presentation Services. You can split the replication configuration into individual tasks. The replication task is an instruction to periodically merge catalog contents for specified catalog folders from one server to another. Two-way replications are possible. A typical scenario where replication is useful is when you use one instance of Presentation Services to prepare and publish shared analyses, and you use two or more production instances to support the users. In this scenario, you share the catalog from Instance 1 to two production instances and share the catalogs on each production instance with the other. To perform this sharing, you configure the following replication tasks in the configuration file for the Presentation Services Replication Agent: ■ shared: Instance1 to Instance2 ■ shared: Instance1 to Instance3 ■ users: Instance2 to Instance3 ■ users: Instance3 to Instance2 When an instance of Presentation Services participates in replication, either as a publisher or as a subscriber, it tracks changes made to catalog objects that are marked to be replicated and keeps them internally in replication log files. Another instance of Presentation Services can make a SOAP call to request to export those changes to a file or to import and replay modifications recorded in a file exported earlier from another instance. The Presentation Services Replication Agent uses SOAP to manage replication-related activities on all instances of Presentation Services and performs import and export operations. For information about these SOAP calls, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Integrators Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition.

17.12.1 About Replication Log Files

Replication log files record modifications made to catalog objects that are subject to replication. There are two types of replication log files: ■ Change log files — Contain records of modifications to catalog objects that were made locally. These files are stored in presentationcatalogpathreplicationchangelog folder, where presentationcatalogpath is the full path to the catalog folder. ■ Playback log files — Contain records of modifications to catalog objects that were replayed from other instances of Presentation Services. These files are stored in presentationcatalogpathreplicationplayback folder.
