ODP Fetchers use an ODP queue as their data source. For data reading they provide multiple Extraction Modes. They also support the filtering of selected data.

Creating ODP Fetchers

Perform the steps provided under Creating Fetcher Object and select ODP Fetcher from the Component implementation drop-down menu in step 7.

Activating ODP Fetchers

After creation, the object is in the saved state.

The following information is mandatory before the activation:

ODP Queue
- Name of the ODP queue for the data read.
- F4 help is available, filtered using context.
- Double clicking the ODP queue opens the monitor delta queues function (transaction ODQMON) with the respective queue and subscriber.
ODP Context
- Name of the ODP Context - also known as a Provider the monitor delta queues function (transaction ODQMON).
- Default value: SAPI (DataSources/Extractors).
Subscriber name
- Name of the ODQ subscriber.
- Default value: SNP GLUE.
Subscriber process
- Name of the subscriber process.
- Default value: SNP_PROCESS.
Execution mode
- Mode of the execution. Can also be changed in the extraction process execution screen.

the following information is optional before the activation:

Selection
- Checkbox for each field of the ODP queue that allows you to mark the field as relevant for selection before the extraction.

Extraction Modes

ODP Fetchers provide multiple extraction (replication) modes:

Full Load
Delta Load
Delta Init
Recovery of Previous Deltas

Keep in mind that delta function is handled by ODP Queue, not by SNP Glue does not store any delta pointers, but can reset the delta for a given ODP queue (e.g. when running delta Initialization with or without a data transfer).

Full Load

All data from the source is extracted and transferred to the target.

Delta Load

Data from the source is read according to the delta value. If no subscriber with a provided subscription is connected to the source ODP (transaction ODQMON), the extraction process perform a Full Load and Delta Init.

Delta Init

Only the delta value will be initialized. No data is transferred.

Recovery of Previous Deltas

This mode is useful when the last delta extraction failed and must be repeated.

Every time the Delta Load is executed, a check is verifying whether the last delta run finished successfully. If not, the delta mode is automatically switched to Recovery of Previous Deltas. This prevents potential data loss due to ODQ delta logic.
