- Replicat performance (replication settings): The new performance profile simplifies the replicat performance selection. See Configuring Replication Advanced Options
- DB Block size (Initial load): You now have the option to select between database block sizes to auto-create tablespace in the target database during migration in the application rather than manually perform this activity. The options are: 8K and 16K. See Configuring Initial Load Advanced Options
