Yes.

Full refresh only means every time Apply runs it will copy the entire source table
to the target. Depending on options Apply can use SQL or Export/Load to perform
the copy.

Differential means Apply copies the changes, inserts, updates, or deletes are copied.
You can choose to excludes deletes (or inserts or updates) if you wish via a predicate
which tests the IBMSNAP_OPERATION column.

4) Is there any other replication programs besides DB2 DataPropagator?
I have heard of one called Data Mirror.

Best regards,
