Basic Text Search and ER
Laurie Gustin asked what the IDS 11 manual's 'Replication is not supported' for Basic Text Search means and how it differs from Excalibur. Gerd Kaluzinski said BTS lacks Excalibur's document filters but he runs BTS with active CDR on three nodes. Madison Pruet suspected ER cannot replicate the datablade's objects, which Laurie took to mean installs and upgrades must be done manually on each server.

The following is taken out of the IDS 11 Manual - when it says Replication is not supported, what does that really mean? If I have replication in place, can I not use the basic Text Search Datablade? How is this database different from the Excalibur datablade for IDS 10? *** The database server has the following requirements and restrictions for the Basic Text Search DataBlade module: Minimum requirement is IBM® Informix® Dynamic Server, Version, 11.10. Basic Text Search can be used with most multi-byte character sets and supports GLS including UTF-8. The exception is ideographic languages such as Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. Replication is not supported: Enterprise Replication and high availability solutions (High-Availability Data Replication, Remote Standalone secondary servers, and Shared Disk secondary servers). Distributed queries are not supported. Parallel Database Queries (PDQs) are not supported. **** Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!!

The main difference between Excalibur and Basic Text Search is that Excalibur provides a lot of filters to search within OpenOffice, PDF, Word, Tif, ... and up to 160 formats. Basic Text Search can only be used on ASCII-Formats and does not have these filters. The restriction on Enterprise Replication is very interesting, because i use Excalibur and BTS with active CDR on three nodes without a problem. You should ask tech-support on this restriction and post the answer here!

In order to support UDTs, there must be streaming UDRs which are regist= ered to place the UDT into the replication stream.

thats what I was hoping that meant. so any installs/upgrades, etc of the datablade have to be done manually on every server - Thanks a bunch for the reply!! laurie >>> "Madison Pruet" <mpruet@us.ibm.com> 09/14/07 10:44 AM >>> In order to support UDTs, there must be streaming UDRs which are regist= ered to place the UDT into the replication stream.
