Releasing Claims

Elements that have been claimed to an extract will remain claimed to that extract until they are released. Any changes must have been flushed to the parent extract before the extract claim is released.

The EXTRACT RELEASE command operates on a single element or a database or a collection of elements. The elements claimed will be released from (that is, no longer claimed in) the current extract, at which point they will be claimed by the owning extract.

If elements need to be made available in the master database, it will be necessary to release the elements up through each level of extracts.

• The Global daemon will only be involved in the release process if the user is releasing elements to a secondary database / extract from their current primary extract.

• When flushing / releasing data from a satellite to another location, check that the flush has been successful before releasing the changes.
