startReplicationTaskType

The type of replication task to start.

When the migration type is full-load or full-load-and-cdc, the only valid value for the first run of the task is start-replication. This option will start the migration.

You can also use ReloadTables to reload specific tables that failed during migration instead of restarting the task.

The resume-processing option isn't applicable for a full-load task, because you can't resume partially loaded tables during the full load phase.

For a full-load-and-cdc task, DMS migrates table data, and then applies data changes that occur on the source. To load all the tables again, and start capturing source changes, use reload-target. Otherwise use resume-processing, to replicate the changes from the last stop position.
