Before you can use Change Data Capture to track your changes, you must enable your database. There are two ways you can enable your database:

  • Using PROUTIL

    You can use the PROUTIL ENABLECDC qualifier. The syntax is:

    proutil db-name -C enablecdc 
     area table-areaname indexarea index-areaname 
     [ deactivateidx ]

    See Manage the OpenEdge Database for details.

  • You can use the Database Administration Console of OpenEdge Management or OpenEdge Explorer. See Manage Database Change Data Capture with OpenEdge Management or the online help for details.
