Setting advanced connection properties

In the Advanced tab, you can set the following parameters:

• Check binary log for new events every: How often to check the binary log for changes when the database is idle (i.e. when no changes are done to the source tables). The default is five seconds. Usually there is no reason to change the interval. However, to reduce the load on the system, you might want to increase the interval in the following scenarios:
  • The database is updated infrequently
  • Polling the system for changes slows down the system
  • Changes are not required in real time
• Additional ODBC connection properties: Specify any additional ODBC connection parameters that may be required.
• Database timezone: Select the timezone where the source database is located.

Internal parameters

Internal parameters are parameters that are not exposed in the UI. You should only use them if instructed by Qlik Support.

To add internal Qlik Replicate parameters:

1. Click the Internal Parameters link.

   The Internal Parameters dialog box opens.

2. In the edit box, type the name of the parameter you need to add and then click it.
3. The parameter is added to the table below the search box with its default value.
4. Change the default value as required.
5. To reset the parameter value to its default, click the "Restore default value" icon at the end of the row.

More options

These options are not exposed in the UI as they are only relevant to specific versions or environments. Consequently, do not set these options unless explicitly instructed to do so by Qlik Support or product documentation.

To set an option, simply copy the option into the Add feature name field and click Add. Then set the value or enable the option according to the instructions you received.

Settings summary

You can view a summary of your settings by clicking the Setting Summary link. This is useful if you need to send a summary of your settings to Qlik Support.
