Hi Folks,
I'm trying to pull the list of areas or data into a report to validate the replication after SQL or OS patches. Basically I'd like to verfiy the REPL status after patch followed with reboot/restart. We had a few times where the replication couldn't caught due to connectivity issues and didn't resume well. Not sure if anyone of you've faced similar or other issues so, trying to run Pre-Image and Post-Image of sql repl.
My list includes
1. Check the DB status
2. Job Status ( Distribution and Log reader agent )
3. Security settings
4. MSrepl_errors
What are the other items that i should include in the list for lookup? Or any other better approach ?
Please advise.
Thanks
