Amarillo is still beautiful.. although the natives don't seem to share my
enthusiasm.
Yeah, I found this... I was just hoping for... more. I can find
considerable stuff on mlog$_<> tables, but I'm still digging on this one. I
love the 'documenation' on some of these 'features'.
Thanks

April,
How's Amarillo lately? ;-)
The only useful thing I found was on metalink forum (I'm sure you've
seen it) pasted below. Looks like a special log for UPDATABLE
SNAPSHOTS, which would make sense in the context of 2 way replication.

Hi,
could somebody explain to me what's the funcionality of the RUPD$
tables and when they are created ?
The chapter covering the creation of snapshot logs also states the
MLOG$ tables only.
Familiar with ORACLE version 8.0.5, i know the MLOG$ snapshot log
tables only.
I went through the 8.1.7 documentation, but i did not find any
explanation, just a short remark about looking for 'temporay updatable
snapshots' by checking the existance of these RUDP$ tables.
Additionaly i did not find any comment on these 'temporay updatable
snapshots'.
Kind reagards

There is very little available on this. It is part of the internals of
replication and is only used for certain "rare" types of heterogenous
replication.

Hi,
is it possible to get a more detailed information on this?
Are these tables created per default during snapshot log creation
or does the creation of these tables depend on some settings, which can
be disbled or ...
What happens if they are deleted for example, does it then influnece
the behaviour/functionality of fast refreshes?
The current environment is a ORACLE 8.1.7 database server used as
master of updatable and read only snapshots for several
ORACLE Lite clients, both running Windows NT.
Kind regards

There is very little data on this available and I'm not getting much
information back from our Replication group either. The only
information I got back so far from another analyst is "I know it gets
created with the snapshot log beginning with Oracle8i whether it is
for updatable snapshots or read only snapshots. It's some kind of
'temporary' table but I don't really know what it's used for during
refresh?"
I'm trying to get more details.

Subject: Re : RUPD$ tables
If I create the following snapshot specifying "with primary key" then a
RUPD$_newtable table appears at the remote site over the
database link where the master table resides.
If I drop the materialised view and recreate the snapshot then the same
happens only without a RUPD$_newtable table being created at
the remote site over the database link where the master table resides.
This would appear to be related to creating updateable snapshots.
This table presumably records changes made at the snapshot site.
create snapshot newtable

pctused 99
tablespace users
storage (initial 1M
next 1M

using index tablespace users

next sysdate + 1/1440

re : my above note from NEXTGEN is wrong.
I refered to "with primary key" instead of "FOR UPDATE"
FOR UPDATE registers the snapshot as updateable of the master for
posting changes back to the Master site.
sorry about the typo

Interesting. This topic seems to come up every now and then and I'll
refer others back to your findings.
