Graceful Stop of Goldengate Extract

It's always a good idea to stop extracts after checking if there is any long running transaction in the database being captured. Failing to do so might later result in hung or unstable processes.





Use following command to check the extract:

GGSCI (test) 3> send e* status

Sending STATUS request to EXTRACT ext ...


EXTRACT ext (PID 16649)
  Current status: In recovery[1]: Processing data with empty data queue
