I have removed some articles of my publication in transactional replication. I use the script below, and contrary to what I have found in documentation, it does not invalidate the snapshot of that publication.

I normally test this by running the snapshot agent, which, after about 12 seconds, tells me that there is no need to run a full snapshot.

How can I test whether the snapshot is good, without running it?

I don't want to run it, because if it is not good, I don't want to stop it in the middle, and I don't want to run it during the office hours.

thanks and regards

Marcelo

-- the script to remove an article from the replication is: (1) and (2) below:
-- to be run at the publisher (in this case SERVER MYSERVER - DATABASE MYDATABASE
-- (1)
--use [MYDATABASE]
--exec sp_dropsubscription @publication = N'MYPUBLICATION', @article = N'tblTaxTransaction', @subscriber = N'all', @destination_db = N'all'
--GO

-- (2)
--use [MYDATABASE]
--exec sp_droparticle @publication = N'MYPUBLICATION', @article = N'tblTaxTransaction', @force_invalidate_snapshot = 1
--GO



--[ @force_invalidate_snapshot = ] force_invalidate_snapshot
--Acknowledges that the action taken by this stored procedure may invalidate an existing snapshot. 
--force_invalidate_snapshot is a bit, with a default of 0.
--0 specifies that changes to the article do not cause the snapshot to be invalid. 
--If the stored procedure detects that the change does require a new snapshot, an error occurs 
--and no changes are made.

--1 specifies that changes to the article may cause the snapshot to be invalid, 
--and if there are existing subscriptions that would require a new snapshot, 
--gives permission for the existing snapshot to be marked as obsolete and a new snapshot generated.

Hello all,

I have a transactional replication with updatable subscription setup with 1 publisher, 1 distributor and 4 subscribers. All are SQL 2008 servers. From last few days I am facing lot of issues with automatic identity range allocations. Somehow SQL server is not allocating new ranges causing the inserts to fail at publishers and subscribers.

Could someone please let me know how to fix automatic identity range management issue and when this issue occurs.

Hello,

I am using SQL 2012 SE and I have transaction replication setup with publisher, subscriber and distributor in one server in an Active Passive cluster environment. 

If publisher goes down then I will have to rely on my full backup+all txlog backups and restart the entire replication.

If subscriber goes down then I will still have to restart the entire replication. The problem is replication is taking between 4 to 6 hours in our scenario and we want to avoid this down time. In the event of publisher/subscriber database goes down what is the best way to have applications/users connected to our database and still perform normal operations without me restoring backups and setting up replication?

Experts need your valuable design thoughts.

Thanks a ton.

hi all,

we are getting below error msg in our Merge Replication in test environment.

its a simple DML query we used but getting the error -

we have sa rights, we have same set up in test/production environment .but not sure why we are getting the error.
can someone please help in this?

Hi,

We have a SQL Server Merge Replication topology. Both Publisher a Subscribers are using SQL Server 2012.

As I have seen in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174360(v=sql.120).aspx

"Using sp_addscriptexec to post a script file for publications using FTP for snapshot delivery is only supported for Microsoft SQL Server Subscribers."

So we should be OK...

The problem is that the Merge Agent is looking for the Script in the local PC instead of download it form theFTP Server.

Here is the Code at the publisher:

exec sp_addscriptexec 'IPoint_Pub','C:\IPoint_Files\ReplicationScripts\User\reIndex.sql'

This is how the subscription was created:

use IPoint
exec sp_addmergepullsubscription @publisher = @Central_Server_Name, @publication = N'IPoint_Pub', @publisher_db = @MGR_DB, @subscriber_type = N'Local', @subscription_priority = 0, @description = N'', @sync_type = N'Automatic'

exec sp_addmergepullsubscription_agent
 @publisher = @Central_Server_Name,
 @publisher_db = @MGR_DB,
 @publication = N'IPoint_Pub',
 @distributor = @Central_Server_Name,
 @distributor_security_mode = 0, @distributor_login = 'XXX', @distributor_password = 'XXX',
 @enabled_for_syncmgr = N'True',
 @frequency_type = 4, @frequency_interval = 1, @frequency_relative_interval = 1, @frequency_recurrence_factor = 1, @frequency_subday = 4, @frequency_subday_interval = 3, @active_start_time_of_day = 0, @active_end_time_of_day = 235959, @active_start_date = 20100527, @active_end_date = 99991231,
 @alt_snapshot_folder = N'', @working_directory = N'',
 @use_ftp = N'True',
 @job_login = null, @job_password = null,
 @publisher_security_mode = 0, @publisher_login = 'XXX',  @publisher_password = 'XXX',
 @use_interactive_resolver = N'False', @dynamic_snapshot_location = null, @use_web_sync = 0,
 @hostname =@SUCURSAL_ID
GO

And the log of the REPLMERG.EX

As you can see, the FTP snapshot is working fine 

"Extracted Documento_Formc3f5d2f9_190.trg"

But the it is looking for a file that only exists in the server.

'C:\inetpub\ftproot\ReplData\ftp\SRV01_IPOINT_NETUL_NETUL_PUB\UserScripts\reIndex.sql'

Do you have any idea?

Hello,

For setting up a "initialize from lsn" type subscription successfully, Does the lsn for @subscriptionlsn parameter need greater than or less than the  min_autonosync_lsn (syspublications) ?

I read two versions of this: one is lsn >min_autonosync_lsn ,the other is lsn <min_autonosync_lsn. I agree lsn >min_autonosync_lsn.

Thanks

Greetings. I'm on SS 2008. 

While recreating transaction replication from backup to one of our subscribers after a catastrophic even, I came across this in our internal documentation:

--To be ran on the subscriber
--Recreate Master Key since DB was moved:
OPEN MASTER KEY DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'myKey'
ALTER MASTER KEY REGENERATE WITH ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'myKey'
Close Master Key

It worked as expected. I've been doing a lot of testing with encryption/ TDE lately, and am positive this DB doesn't use it. That said, what does this key do/ what purpose does it serve?

The author of the doc has moved on so I can't ask him, but I'd really like to understand the benefit to this if there's no encryption on the DB.

Thanks!

I am trying to migrate a pull subscription from an existing publication that is in SQL Server 2008 to one that is in SQL Server 2012. I get an error number:MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL20203.

I gave the service account that runs MSSQLSERVER full access to the snapshot folder but I'm still having this error.  The user installed SQL Server 2012 Express on his laptop and he is in a group that has access to the publication.

Please advise.

Hi all

I'm testing the replication, everything Works fine, but I'd like to know how many connections allow the evaluation of the SQL Server versión I'm testing on.

We are testing 2 stores with 2 server in replica with about 20 users in each side. So we can get an idea of the prices of the licences my customer have to buy.

Thank you very much.

I am using transaction replication In my Environment. 
Question: At the time when batches completed from Application team, daily it will take  5  to 10min to apply all commands to replicated database, but from last one weak it is taking 2 to 3 and half hour.
Can anybody suggest what might be the reason and solution ?

Resone I think 
There are more indexes on replicated databae than Production
In Replicated mdf and ldf files are both on same serveranything else ? 

Environment on both servers prod as well as replicated

Hi Experts,

We have merge replication configured, when i executed the below command on subscriber

exec sp_replmonitorhelpmergesession

i see that status 3 which means (In progress ) and Current Phase column value 4 which means(Idle).

Data is not getting replicated from past 3 days but i see the status is synchronizing. 

Can any one help us on this

Thanks

Khushi

Hi ,

sp_showpendingchanges this command shows how many changes are pending to replicate in merge replication.

is there any way to replicate these changes to manually.

Because i have merge replication which is not replicating the data from past 3 days . and I see the status as replicating.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I have to add  one new table to an  existing replication. I created  table and added that table to the replication as well.Now I want to reinitialize only the new table rather than all the tables. Please anybody help

We have had a table in a push transactional replication publication that needed to be removed from the publication, have the PK column altered and another column dropped, and the re-added back to the publication.

The publisher is running SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 CU8 (10.50.4290).  The subscriber is running SQL Server 2012 SP2 (11.0.5058).  The publication was created initially in SQL Sever 2008 R2 (10.50.1600).

The code to remove the article (run on the publisher) is below:-

EXEC sys.sp_dropsubscription 
@publication = 'Order_Manager_Full'
, @subscriber = 'MHRS-002'
, @destination_db = 'Replicated_Order_Manager'
, @article = 'Return_Request'

EXEC sys.sp_droparticle 
    @publication = 'Order_Manager_Full'
,   @article = 'Return_Request'

After the changes were propogated, the following was run in order to re-add the table to the publication:-

EXEC sys.sp_addarticle 
    @publication = 'Order_Manager_Full'
,   @article = 'Return_Request'
,   @source_object = 'Return_Request'
,    @source_owner = 'dbo'
,    @schema_option =0x00000004080352DB

EXEC sys.sp_addsubscription 
@publication = 'Order_Manger_Full'
, @subscriber = 'MHRS-002'
, @destination_db = 'Replicated_Order_Manager'
, @article = 'all'

After this, the snapshot agent was run, which produced the snapshot; however, when this was then applied on the subscriber, it fails with "Column name or number of supplied values does not match table definition".  Notably, the table and objects do not appear to be created on the subscriber during the operation; I have a trigger running on DDL statements and the only command trapped is DROP TABLE.  I've also tested the schema script, which runs without problem on its own.

I've created a new publication pointing to the same database, and added the article, and the same behaviour occurs; however, if creating a new database and publication, this works fine and I can drop and add the article without issue.

I'm wondering if this is an issue between the patch levels of the publisher, as the initial publication was created on R2, and we're now running R2 SP2 CU8?  The other thing of note that I can see, is that the article is left in the dbo.MSreplication_objects table, despite having been dropped.

Any ideas how I can resolve this issue?

Cheers

Matthew

Hi i am fairly new to replication.

My situation is that I dropped replication using the script that was generated from the publication.

When I go through the publication wizard I get a error message on the first page

'New publication Wizard encountered one or more errors while retrieving the list of databases on "my computer"

Invaliud object name 'Tracker_Repl.dbo.MSreplication_Subscriptions'

Could not use view or function 'dbo.MSreplication_Subscriptions'becasue of binding errors.

I can not find this subscription and there is nothing in the system file tables.

When you expand the Local subscriptions I get the same error message.

How do I go about fixing this?

Regards

what happen if i disable log reader agent in replication and took log backup of publisher database

I am rebuilting Replication from backup so taht i have performed follwing steps
create publication
add article 
desable log reader -
backup- pub DB

check not for replication column
enable log reader

First it run fine but latter it gives an erro as rwo was not found at subscrip when applying replicated command

Hi All,

I need to remove replication for a single database (Remove replication on ABC database from SQL1 to SQL5.)

I did some research and found as follows:

DECLARE @subscriptionDB AS sysname
SET @subscriptionDB = N'AdventureWorks2008R2Replica'
USE master
EXEC sp_removedbreplication @subscriptionDB, will this help my requirement.
GO
Please help me in getting script to remove replication of particular database from server A to serverB.
Thanks in advance.

 Hi

We have a two sql publisher servers, configured for merge replication and each publication have 5 - 10 subscriptions, the replication was running fine, but suddenly it started giving the below error on two servers, but the error message is same for all the failures on the two different servers,
