When set to kafka oracdc produces separate schemas for key and value fields in message.
When set to single oracdc produces single schema for all fields.
When set to debezium oracdc produces Debezium like messages. Messages in this mode can be consumed with internal oracdc sink connector.

a2.table.list.style - When set to static (default) oracdc reads tables and partition list to process only at startup according to values of a2.include and a2.exclude parameters. When set to dynamic oracdc builds list of objects to process on the fly
a2.process.lobs - process Oracle BLOB, CLOB, NCLOB, and XMLType columns. Default - false
a2.lob.transformation.class - name of class which implements solutions.a2.cdc.oracle.data.OraCdcLobTransformationsIntf interface.

a2.connection.backoff - Backoff time in milliseconds between reconnectoion attempts. Default - 30000ms
a2.archived.log.catalog - name of class which implements solutions.a2.cdc.oracle.OraLogMiner interface. Default - solutions.a2.cdc.oracle.OraCdcV$ArchivedLogImpl which reads archived log information and information about next available archived redo log from V$ARCHIVED_LOG fixed view
a2.fetch.size - number of rows fetched with each RDBMS round trip for accessing V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS fixed view. Default 32
a2.logminer.trace - trace with 'event 10046 level 8' LogMiner calls? Default - false. To enable tracing the following statements are executed at RDBMS session
alter session set max_dump_file_size=unlimited;
alter session set tracefile_identifier='oracdc';
alter session set events '10046 trace name context forever, level 8';
a2.resiliency.type - How restarts and crashes are handled: In legacy mode, all information is stored in the file system, delivery of all changes is guaranteed with exactly-once semantics, but this mode does not protect against file system failures. When set to fault-tolerant (the default since v1.0.0), all restart data stored on Kafka topics, the connector depends only on Kafka cluster, but if an error occurs in the middle of sending a Oracle transaction to the Kafka broker, that transaction will be re-read from archived redo and sending to Kafka will continue after last successfully processed record to maintain exactly-once semantics
a2.use.rac - When set to true oracdc first tried to detect is this connection to Oracle RAC by querying the fixed table V$ACTIVE_INSTANCES. If database is not RAC, only the warning message is printed. If oracdc is connected to Oracle RAC by querying the fixed table V$ACTIVE_INSTANCES additional checks are performed and oracdc starts a separate task for each redo thread/RAC instance. Changes for the same table from different redo threads/RAC instances are delivered to the same topic but to different partition where
<KAFKA_PARTITION_NUMBER> = <THREAD#> - 1
Default - false.
a2.transaction.implementation - Queue implementation for processing SQL statements within transactions. Allowed values: ChronicleQueue and ArrayList. Default - ChronicleQueue. LOB processing is only possible if a2.transaction.implementation is set to ChronicleQueue.
a2.print.invalid.hex.value.warning - When set to true oracdc prints information about invalid hex values (like single byte value for DATE/TIMESTAMP/TIMESTAMPTZ) in log. Default - false.
a2.process.online.redo.logs - When set to true oracdc process online redo logs. Default - false.
a2.scn.query.interval.ms - Minimum time in milliseconds to determine the current SCN during online redo log processing. Used when a2.process.online.redo.logs is set true. Default - 60_000.
a2.incomplete.redo.tolerance - Connector behavior when processing an incomplete redo record. Allowed values are error, skip, and restore. Default - error. When set to:
- error oracdc prints information about incomplete redo record and stops connector.
- skip oracdc prints information about incomplete redo record and continue processing.
- restore oracdc tries to restore missed information from actual row incarnation from the table using ROWID from redo the record.
a2.print.all.online.scn.ranges - If set to true oracdc prints detailed information about SCN ranges when working with the online log every time interval specified by the a2.scn.query.interval.ms parameter. If set to false oracdc prints information about current online redo only when SEQUENCE# is changed.
Default - true.
a2.log.miner.reconnect.ms - The time interval in milliseconds after which a reconnection to LogMiner occurs, including the re-creation of the Oracle connection. Unix/Linux only, on Windows oracdc creates new LogMiner session and re-creation of database connection every time DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR is called. Default - Long.MAX_VALUE
a2.pk.type - When set to well_defined the key fields are the table's primary key columns or, if the table does not have a primary key, the table's unique key columns in which all columns are NOT NULL. If there are no appropriate keys in the table, oracdc uses the a2.use.rowid.as.key parameter and generates a pseudo key based on the row's ROWID, or generates a schema without any key fields.
When set to any_unique and the table does not have a primary key or a unique key with all NOT NULL columns, then the key fields will be the unique key columns which may have NULL columns. If there are no appropriate keys in the table, oracdc uses the a2.use.rowid.as.key parameter and generates a pseudo key based on the row's ROWID, or generates a schema without any key fields. Default - well_defined.
a2.use.rowid.as.key - When set to true and the table does not have a appropriate primary or unique key, oracdc adds surragate key using the ROWID. When set to false and the table does not have a appropriate primary or unique key, oracdc generates schema for the table without any key fields and key schema. Default - true.
a2.use.all.columns.on.delete - When set to false (default) oracdc reads and processes only the primary key columns from the redo record and sends only the key fields to the Apache Kafka topic. When set to true oracdc reads and processes all table columns from the redo record. Default - false.
a2.topic.mapper - The fully-qualified class name of the class that specifies which Kafka topic the data from the tables should be sent to. If value of thee parameter a2.shema.type is set to debezium, the default OraCdcDefaultTopicNameMapper uses the parameter a2.kafka.topic value as the Kafka topic name, otherwise it constructs the topic name according to the values of the parameters a2.topic.prefix, a2.topic.name.style, and a2.topic.name.delimiter, as well as the table name, table owner and PDB name.
Default - solutions.a2.cdc.oracle.OraCdcDefaultTopicNameMapper
