About RIS Filenames

The RIS row information is written at the time that the data-synchronization component finishes processing the replicated row and can therefore also provide the local row information. The RIS filename algorithm is analogous to the one that ATS uses, with the ats prefix replaced by ris. The RIS file that corresponds to the ATS file described in the previous section is, for example:

ris.g_beijing.g_amsterdam.D_2.000529_23:27:16.5 

For more information, see About ATS Filenames.

In addition to the four types of records printed in ATS, the RIS file also includes the following information.

Label Name Description
LRH Local-row header Indicates if the local row is found in the delete table and not in the target table
LRS Local-row shadow columns Contains the server ID and the time when the row is updated on the target server
This line is printed only if the replicate is defined with a conflict-resolution rule.
LRD Local-row data Contains the list of replicated columns extracted from the local row and displayed in the same order as the replicated row data
Similar to the replicated row data, each column is separated by a '|' and written in ASCII format. When the spooling program encounters severe errors (for example, cannot retrieve replicate ID for the replicated row, unable to determine the replicated column's type, size, or length) or the table includes UDT columns (whether defined for replication or not), it displays the replicated row data in hexadecimal format. In this case, the local row data is not spooled.
