Monitoring and controlling Replicate tasks

Before you can create a Compose project, you need to define a Replicate task that replicates the relevant source tables from the source database to the Landing Zone. You can define a different task for each project or the same task can serve several projects. You can also define multiple tasks for a single project. The tasks can either reside on the same Replicate server or on several Replicate servers distributed throughout your organization.

Monitoring and controlling Replicate tasks from within Compose involves the following steps:

  • Step 1: Configure Qlik Compose to connect to the Qlik Replicate machine(s) as described in Replicate Server settings.
  • Step 2: Add the Replicate task name to the source Landing Zone settings as described in Defining Landing Zones connections.
  • Step 3: Monitor and control the Replicate task as described below.

The image Replicate Task in the Compose Monitor shows how the Replicate task appears in the Compose Monitor. You can stop and start the Replicate task using the Abort and Run toolbar buttons.

Information note

If a task is stopped from within Replicate, the task status in Compose for Data Lakes will be "Completed" instead of "Aborted".

You can also define notifications for the task and add the task to a workflow. For more information, see Notifications and Workflows respectively.

The monitor provides various information about the task. For details, see Viewing information in the monitor.
