Good Day all,
Strange issue with identity ranges in merge replication, can anyone shed any light ?
Occurred when running a couple of updates (one of 12,000 rows and the other of 50,000) on the sql2008 publisher. Identity range is 10,000 and the treshold 80%.
We split the updates up into tranches of 1,000 with a call to sp_adjustpublisheridentityrange between each.
Expected this would mean identity ranges would be adjusted appropriately as and when.
But when running the script we did encounter error stating identity range exhausted.
Any ideas why this should be ? Is it necessary to add a delay after running sp_adjustpublisheridentityrange
to ensure it 'propagates' ?
