Adding the secondary data file to 4 ndf file on destination server which has pull subscription should not affect or remove the replicication

Hi,

I have an requirement to add secondary data files under the same primary file group but span across 4 different disk, once this done i have to run rebuild index and ensure SQL distributes data evenly.

This server and the database hosted is  destination for the transactional replication which is running.

The source server still has only one DATA and ONE LOG file and there is no plan to add secondary files on Source server.

Question is when i am adding new files under the primary file group on the destination database that has the Pull subscription will that affect the destination subscription agent replication jobs and cause Replication disconnectivity.

Are there any precautions i have to take on replication end before i start with the adding secondary files on the destination server?

SQL server 2008R2-SP2 on windows2008R2 server - both source and destination servers are Clustered
