Re: In a HA environment: Do triggers fire when a database record gets updated?

In Mimix you go into the "datagroup" definition. (see comment at bottom)
Display DG Definitions

File and tracking ent. opts:
Journal image . . . . . . : *AFTER
Omit open/close entries . : *YES
Replication type . . . . . : *POSITION

Process trigger entries
Specifies whether MIMIX should process journal entries for files
that are generated by triggers.

Note: This option is not valid for tracking entries.

The possible values are:
*YES
Journal entries generated by triggers are processed by MIMIX.

*NO
Journal entries generated by triggers are not processed by
MIMIX.


Nothing to stop them from putting your stuff into it's own datagroup and
telling it to process trigger entries. Be sure that's what you really
want to do though. For example, if an insert into DETAIL get's processed
by a trigger to update HEADER and both the changes from DETAIL and HEADER
get replicated to the backup machine do you really want that trigger to
fire also?
