Listing the details of a replication set in a Db2 Q Replication configuration

You can retrieve the details of a replication set by using the Db2 Q Replication REST API. Details include summary statistics, table subscription status, and schema subscription status.

Before you begin

This task is done on the cluster host for the replication source. Ensure that you collect the following information before you run the API call:

  • The basic authorization token of the source on the cluster host.1
  • The host name of the replication source database.
  • The external port number of the replication source database.2
  • The replication set name (rsName)3
  • The consistency group name (cgName)
You need this information to run the needed Replication REST API calls.
1 You need to create a basic authorization token to run a cURL request. To create your token, run this command:
echo <source_db_username>:<source_db_password> | base64
2 You can retrieve the external port number of the replication source database by running the following command:
oc get svc | grep <db2_instance_id> | grep db2u-engn-svc | grep 50001 | sed 's/.*50001://' | sed 's/\/TCP.*//')
3 You can find the replication set name (rsName) and consistency group name (cgName) by running the following command:
curl --insecure -X GET --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header 'Accept: application/json' --header 'Authorization: Basic <your_authorization_token>'  
'https://<source_hostname>:<source_rest_port>/dr/v1/replicationset'

About this task

You identify the replication set by the set name and consistency group name.

Procedure

Request the details of a specific replication set: 
curl --insecure -X GET --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header 'Accept: application/json' --header 'Authorization: Basic <your_authorization_token>'  
'https://<source_hostname>:<source_rest_port>/dr/v1/replicationset/<replication_set_name>/<consistency_group_name>'

Results

The replication list details request is complete when a response message that contains executionState=COMPLETED and overallJobResult=PASS is returned. Until these values are returned, examine the error code, message, and resolution in the response.
The following table lists the possible HTTP status codes and response messages for the replication set details request. It also includes sample code to show the response syntax.

Example

The following example shows the command syntax for requesting details of the replication set, RS_MPP_2:
curl --insecure -X GET --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header 'Accept: application/json' --header 'Authorization: Basic ZHNhZG06MDNRVWlMczFhcmoxb3ky'
