Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *
    * This issue may affect you if you use the CDC Kafka engine    *
    * with the system parameter target_num_image_builder_threads   *
    * is set to be greater than 1.                                 *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
    * Updates are applied to Kafka as a Delete operation followed  *
    * by an Insert operation. If the CDC engine was using multiple *
    * threads, it would in some circumstances write the delete     *
    * operation with one thread and then switch to another thread  *
    * to write the insert. This could result in the insert         *
    * operation being written out of order.                        *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    

Problem conclusion

  • Upgrading to IDR 11.4.0.2-5560 for Kafka resolves this issue.
