Fix seeding errors in Instance Data Replication

Retry Instance Data Replication (IDR) seeding on tables with seeding errors, which occur from network problems and failed inserts, so that you don't have to do a full seeding.

Before you begin

Role required: idr_admin or admin

About this task

The maximum for a retry reseeding request is 10,000 errors. If you have more errors, perform a full seeding.

Note:

Seeding is not a replacement for cloning. Do not use IDR to clone instances.

Do not retry full seeding if you exceed any of the following limitations:

• Record size exceeds 10 MB
• Seeding request exceeds 3 million records
• Replication takes longer than seven days to complete

Note:

To avoid these limitations, reduce the number of tables in the seeding request, reduce the size of the records, or use partial seeding.

Procedure

1. On the consumer instance, navigate to Instance Data Replication > Consumer Replication Sets.
2. On the Seeding Requests tab of the Consumer Replication Set pane, click a seeding request that failed.

   

3. On the Seeding Request pane, click the Payload Errors tab and examine the values in the Message column.
4. Click Retry All Errors or select specific errors, and then click Retry Selected Errors.
