8.35. The tungsten_skip_all Command

Version Support: 6.1.13

This command was introduced in version 6.1.13.

The tungsten_skip_all command assists with skipping replicator errors that you deem safe to skip.

Warning

Blindly skipping replication errors without fully understanding the consequences could lead to data drift. This action should only be performed providing a full understanding of the error has been analysed and deemed to be safe to skip by yourself and/or you business.

The tungsten_skip_all command performs the following steps:

  • Gather a list of replicator service names using trepctl services | grep serviceName.

  • Starts an inifinite loop.

  • Loops through all services, or uses the service specified on the cli.

  • Checks the service status via trepctl -service {serviceName_here} status -json.

  • If the pendingErrorSeqno is not -1, then processes the error state.

  • By default, if there is an error condition, a detailed message is displayed, and the user may skip the seqno interactively.

  • If the tungsten_skip_all command is called with --auto then the seqno with the error will be skipped automatically.

  • If the maximum number of loops has been reached (default: 100), the script will exit.

  • Sleeps for 3 seconds by default, then iterate
