During the first run, OpenLogReplicator creates a local copy of the source database schema. The data dictionary may be large, and by default only a subset is gathered. Only schemas configured for replication are copied. Other schemas are not copied by default.
If you need to replicate additional schemas, stop replication, update the configuration file, and restart replication. If the new schemas are missing from the local dictionary, replication may fail to start. A workaround is to delete all checkpoint files and start replication again.
The user defines which schemas and tables are replicated. Schema and username filters may use regular expressions.
A schema may not exist yet when replication starts and can be created later. OpenLogReplicator begins replicating such a schema automatically when it appears.
