Fields

Failover 3

Enables the subscription for immediate updating, with queued updating as a failover. Data modifications can be made at the Subscriber and propagated to the Publisher immediately. If the Publisher and Subscriber are not connected, the updating mode can be changed so that data modifications made at the Subscriber are stored in a queue until the Subscriber and Publisher are reconnected. Not supported for Oracle Publishers.

ImmediateUpdate 1

Enables support for immediate updating subscriptions. Not supported for Oracle Publishers.

QueuedFailover 4

Enables the subscription as a queued updating subscription with the ability to change to immediate updating mode. Data modifications can be made at the Subscriber and stored in a queue until a connection is established between the Subscriber and Publisher. When a continuous connection is established the updating mode can be changed to immediate updating. Not supported for Oracle Publishers.

QueuedUpdate 2

Enables the subscription for queued updating. Data modifications can be made at the Subscriber, stored in a queue, and then propagated to the Publisher. Not supported for Oracle Publishers.

ReadOnly 0

The subscription is read-only. The changes at the Subscriber are not sent to the Publisher.
