    Description

      Reading through the documentation I couldn't find answers to these:

      1. Can I simply add/remove tables from the table list? Does it know to snapshot the new tables but not re-snapshot the existing ones?
      2. Should I ever change the connector name or consumer group name?
      3. If I rerun debezium twice does it know to not re-snapshot?
      4. How can I do ongoing replication without snapshot?
      5. How do I do just snapshot without ongoing replication?
      6. If debezium process terminates (or my VM terminates) or fails during snapshot, can I simply resume it and it resumes from correct point?
      7. If debezium process terminates or fails during ongoing replication, can I simply resume it and it resumes from correct point?
      8. If my source db goes into DR (ie failover to different IP) will debezium fail? How to resume processing changes from the new IP?
      9. What happens when source db table structure changes? ie add column/remove column/change column data type. Does it automatically adjust new messages to the new structure or fails and need some manual intervention? 
      10. If password to source db rotates can I simply resume the connector after changing the password value?
      11. Since full load does only 1 table at a time, can i use another tool (not debezium) like jdbc source to do full load of many tables in parallel, then just let debezium do ongoing replication by feeding it some timestamp/scn value?
      12. How can I re-snapshot a topic (purge topic first) that has already been snapshotted/currently doing ongoing replication?
