I was trying to add an article to current transnational replication and don't want to recreate the whole snapshot so I ran below script to change the
publication properties allow_anonymous and immediate_sync, but it was stuck and unable to complete even over 30 minutes, the database is not big (30GB, creating snapshot for the whole db takes only 15 minutes). I have tried recreating the whole publication
then run it again, but no luck.
sp_changepublication @publication = ‘BIDB’,
@property = ‘allow_anonymous’,
@value = ‘false’
GO
EXEC sp_changepublication @publication = ‘BIDB’,
@property = ‘immediate_sync’,
@value = ‘false’
GO
what's going on with changing these 2 properties? and it was blocking other normal user sessions, have to cancel and rollback with 'ROLLBACK TRANSACTION' as described here:
