Receive Oracle Database change notifications after a receive location breakdown

  • Artigo

Consider a scenario where you have a BizTalk application that receives database change notification messages when changes are made to the ACCOUNTACTIVITY table. If the receive location configured as part of the BizTalk application breaks down, and simultaneously records are added into the ACCOUNTACTIVITY table, you will not receive notifications for the recently added records. You will also not know when the receive location is available again. The Oracle Database adapter exposes a binding property, NotifyOnListenerStart, that you can configure to get a notification that the receive location has recovered. You can specify the following values for the NotifyOnListenerStart binding property:

  • Set this property to True, to receive a notification informing that the receive location is available, as soon as the receive location recovers.

  • Set this property to False, to not receive a notification informing that the receive location has recovered, after the receive location recovers.

    Default is True.

Configuring the Oracle Database Adapter Behavior

For either of the approaches, you do not need to perform any specific tasks while generating metadata or while configuring the BizTalk application. You only need to set the NotifyOnListenerStart binding property accordingly on the WCF-Custom or WCF-OracleDB receive location. To create the BizTalk application, you must perform the same set of tasks as described in Receiving Oracle Database Change Notifications Incrementally Using BizTalk Server. However, when configuring the BizTalk application using BizTalk Server, you can try changing the value of NotifyOnListenerStart binding property and see the difference in the two configurations.

The following figure demonstrates how the notifications are received based on the value of the NotifyOnListenerStart binding property.

Configure SQL Adapter for notifications

Note that in the first scenario, when the NotifyOnListenerStart is set to True and records are inserted into the database table while the receive location was down, the adapter only sends you a notification message when the receive location comes up. The adapter does not perform any operation to process the records that were inserted while the receive location was down. The adapter client must implement the relevant logic in their application to process the records that were inserted while the receive location was down.
