Install and Configure GG 11.2 on SQL 2008 R2
We have several SQL servers with earlier (11.1xxx) versions of Golden Gate installed. They cover SQL 2000 through SQL 2008 R2. We brought 6 new SQL 2008 R2 servers online within the last year. We installed version 11.2.1.0.20 of Golden Gate on these new servers. I am confused about changes in the configuration process between GG versions.
Older versions were installed, ODBC setup, GG User configured, Extract and Pump files created. One of the last steps was to run ADD TRANDATA for each of the tables to be extracted. Performing these same steps on 11.2x seems to leave something out.
Review in SQL Agent Jobs revealed CDC.<tablename>_CAPTURE and CDC..<tablename>_CLEANUP jobs. In some instances, these had to be created manually.
