Change Error Logging For Sys.sp_MSrepl_raiseerror

I have merge replication setup to a bunch of mobile subscribers. I want everything managed from the server and I want everything to run continuously. The reason we want this is that we want subscribers to automatically synchronize data within 60 seconds of plugging into the network from any location. We do not want to write anything to have to detect connectivity and initiate it. We do not want it initiated from a subscriber either. This creates a SEVERE logging issue and has halted a roll out at 2 different customers. We can't get beyond about 60 subscribers on a system that was running 3700 subscribers in SQL Server 2000. The server quite literally freezes and becomes non-responsive 1 - 2 times per day. We've tracked this back to the volume of logging into the Windows event log that is being caused by the replication engine.

When subscribers are disconnected, they throw constant errors, to the tune of 1 error every 2 minutes into the SQL Server error log as well as the Windows event log. This is because someone decided that these should be level 18 errors. There is no error. The publisher could not contact the subscriber, so I want it to simply log an error, shut up, go back to sleep, and then try again. I do NOT want a message in my SQL Server error log and I do NOT want a message in my Windows event log.

We are currently logging over 60,000 messages per day into both the Windows event log and the SQL Server error logs for something that we KNOW is a NORMAL operational state of the system. The merge agent doesn't have a parameter that I can feed it to ignore 14151 errors.

The culprit is in sys.sp_MSrepl_raiseerror. Since it is a system object, I can't override it and change the severity level of the error. So, right now we are stuck and the SQL Server error log as well as Windows event logs are being rendered quite useless on the system.

The offending code is:

raiserror (14151, 18, -1, @agent, @agent_name, @message)

Does anyone have any idea how I can forcefully change sys.sp_MSrepl_raiseerror or in some other way suppress the logging of 14151 errors from the Windows and SQL Server logs?
