• Log-based capture (capture from DBMS logging system) (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Access to logs using SQL interface (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Log-based capture of tables with LOB column (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Multiple log-based capture jobs can capture from same database (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Log-based capture checkpointing using location property Capture_Checkpoint_Frequency (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).

HVR does not support the following capabilities on YugabyteDB:

• Capture from Archive log files only.
• Log-based capture of DDL statements using action AdaptDDL.
• Log-based capture of DDL statements (AdaptDDL) without refresh.
• Log-based capture of tables without a primary key.
• Direct access to logs on a file system.
• Log-based capture from hidden rowid/RRN column (ColumnProperties with parameter CaptureFromRowId).
• Rewind log-based capture to specific time (hvractivate option -i).
• Online refresh using accurate LSN/SCN.
• Populates column hvr_cap_user for use in ColumnProperties {hvr_cap_user} substitutions.
• Log-based capture of truncate table statements.
• Capture from tables with basic compression.
• Read archives from an alternative directory (location property Archive_Log_Path on the capture location).
• Trigger-based capture (using the location property Capture_Method=DB_TRIGGER at the capture location). This method has been deprecated since 6.2.0/0..

Integrate

HVR supports the following capabilities on YugabyteDB:

• Integrate changes into location (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Burst integration (Integrate with parameter Method=BURST) (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Integrate with parameter BurstCommitFrequency (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Continuous integration (Integrate with parameter Method=CONTINUOUS) (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Tables without a key and without TableProperties with NoDuplicateRows for continuous integration (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Continuous integrate with parameter OnErrorSaveFailed (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• ColumnProperties with parameter SoftDelete (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Creation and update of HVR state tables (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).

HVR does not support the following capabilities on YugabyteDB:

• Append integration into TimeKey (Integrate with parameter Method=APPEND).
• Disable/enable database triggers during integrate (with parameter NoTriggerFiring).
• Integrate with parameter DbProc.

Bi-directional Replication

HVR does not support Detection of changes made by HVR in a bidirectional channel to prevent loop-back on YugabyteDB.

Refresh and Compare

HVR supports the following capabilities on YugabyteDB:

• hvrrefresh or hvrcompare from source location (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• hvrrefresh into target location (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Isolated table hvrrefresh (option -i) into target location (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Row-wise hvrrefresh into target location (option -g) (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).

Other Capabilities

HVR supports the following capabilities on YugabyteDB:

• Call database procedure dbproc during replication jobs (AgentPlugin with parameter DbProc) (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• International table and column names where DBMS is not configured with UTF-8 encoding (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Always treat DBMS table names and column names as case sensitive, even if not configured (equivalent to location property Case_Sensitive_Names always set to TRUE) (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).
• Always treat DBMS schema names case sensitive (YugabyteDB from version 2024.1 to version 2024.2).

HVR does not support the following capabilities on YugabyteDB:
