I have two distribution agent jobs which are looking for publications or databases that do not exist or have been moved but the old distribution agent jobs are still present on the server. These jobs just keep retrying forever and I would like to remove them safely. Besides simply stopping the job and then deleting it, is there any other metadata that I need to remove or processes that I need to follow?
Also, I have two distribution databases on another server and the publication looks like it is only using one of the distribution dbs. How can I confirm this? Am I correct in assuming that I just need to remove the db from the list of distribution dbs in the configure distribution databases and publishers in order to remove the db?
