Behavior when character code conversion inability

[iti-attunity-sup]

Hello support team.

[Info]
Source DB : Db2 for z/OS
Target DB : Snowflake

[Question]
Source DB has T-DES encryption columns and User-specific cryptographic algorithm columns.
Above, when character code conversion of those columns is inability, how does Qlik Replicate behavior?

1.Skip replication of record that character code conversion is inablity.
2.Continue to replicate regardless of conversion inablity. (And output error or warning, substitute applicable data to specific character like "□")
3.Stop replication task.

Best Regards.

@iti-attunity-sup - just a reminder: posts in this forum are not an official support request. Along with lots of helpfulncasual readers like myself, several Qlik support employees will try to help on a best-effort, time available, basis but there is no commitment from anyone.

If you need a formal, timely, answer (which can be 'no can do') then you need to open a support case.

For the question itself... why don't you just try and let us know?!

I suspect encrypted columns should be identified and treated as the binary blobs they are and will be passed on uninterpretted, unmodified to the target (Snowflake)

Thank you for your reply.
I will coutinue to wait your answer.

I want to know behavior as Qlik Replicate.

Excellent! you do you. but if you need a formal answer then you may want to submit a support casel.

>>> I want to know behavior as Qlik Replicate.

Excellent! Me too! Best way to find out, is to try, as I suggested. Or you could wait and hope that some well meaning helper comes up with a correct answer and hope you can trust it,.

Hein.

Hi @iti-attunity-sup 

In addition to @Heinvandenheuvel reply, We first need to understand where the encryption is set (On DB?) and also the data type of the columns involved.

To assess the scenario and to assist further, Kindly submit a Support case.
