Replication :: Undistributed Transactions Build Up At Same Time Each Night

May 12, 2015

There is a database "Foo" sitting on server "A". There is a database "Bar" sitting on server "B". A.Foo publishes a subset of its schema. B.Bar subscribes to A.Foo's publication. The distribution database is on "B" (B.distributor). This a push subscription (transactions are pushed to the subscriber from the distributor). Every day (including the weekend) I get the following alert:

"5/12/2015 3:53:16 AM, Unsubscribed Transactions (Count) on "B" is Warning.

SQL Server instance "B" has 636771 unsubscribed replication transactions received by the Distributor and not received by a Subscriber.

Unsubscribed Transactions (Count): Number of replication transactions received by the Distributor and not received by a Subscriber."

The number of transactions will vary. The alerts will be sent between 1:20 AM (EST) and 3:30 AM (EST). I'm trying to figure out what is causing the backup of transactions. I assume the issue precedes the alerts by 30-minutes or so.

There are no backups occurringNothing is blocking the distributor agent in the subscription databaseJob activity is at a minimum; the few jobs running run throughout the dayThe machine has plenty of resources -- CPU, RAM, etc.The publisher database shows no signs of stress.

Transactional Replication - Undistributed Commands

Oct 11, 2006

Hello,

I have a publisher set up to transactionally replicate just one table which has about 19000 rows. The snapshot agent finished and everything was OK the first day. Now (day 2) the replication monitor estimates that latency to the subscriber = 10 hours and undistributed commands>600,000 and growing each minute. How could this be when data is only inserted into this table and it has <20,000 records? Please advise...thanks!

Replication Monitor Undistributed Commands Tab

Oct 16, 2007

Hi,


We're testen a simple lan SQL 2005 SP2 one way transactional replication config.
Data is replicated ok, but in the Replication Monitor we found some strange issues:


- The subscription is giving a latency warning.
When we insert a tracer tocken the total latency is 5 secs.
Is there a way to alter the warning level for a subscription??


- Undistributed Commands tab
Changes do arrive at the client, but the distributed commands counter
shows an increase in value for every (as far as we can tel succesfull) change

If we do insert a tracer token -wich arrives within 5secs.- the the
counter is reset to zero.


thank you very much for any feedback

Replication Missed Transactions.. !?

Sep 26, 2001

On SQL 7.0, NT SP6 we had transactional replication running fine last Friday. After a reboot (Fri night) replication continued fine and then by Tuesday am, we saw a lot of 'timeout errors' for the distributor agent and the difference in numbers of rows (count(*)) for same tables on each side grew alarmingly high even though the replication continued fine..

I have changed the timeout from '0' to '300' which seemed to help with timeouts, but the difference in row counts kept progressing slowly while the replication seemed to be running fine..

Eventually we resorted to re-intializing the subscriptions on the replicated database to get past the issue and now 24 hours later after intializing was complete, we are still pretty much in synch..

Any one have any ideas why we got so much out of synch (wrt row counts) .. ? Any bugs/ gotchas/ quirks any one can think of?

thanks!!
Bruce

Replication Undoes Transactions

Jun 13, 2005

Hi,

i have a publisher, a distributer and 3 subscribers all working. All created at the same time.

Today i have tried to introduce a 4 th subscriber server and replication has fallen over. Each cycle will have updates eg
merged 75 data changes(6 inserts, 6 updates, 63 deletes, 48 resolved conflicts)
but the next cycle will show:
merged 55 data changes(4 inserts, 3 updates, 48 deletes, 37 resolved conflicts)

the 48 deletes are the conflicts from the previous cycle. this repeats hour on hour. The conflicts table is storing all of the changes but what have i done wrong in introducing the 4th server to get these symptoms? I followed the wizard all the way (may be that was it? :rolleyes: ) i have disabled this agent now and the others are working fine again. it is merge replication although the subscriber i have added is not going to be causing any updates.

conflicts are set to be resolved automatically

Replication - Several Transactions Occurring

Feb 8, 2012

I have configured a transactional replication between 2 MSSQL 2005 instances. It is set to replicate every 15 minutes. Most replications take less than a minute with about 10 - 50 transactions being replicated.

However, 3 times during the day, the replication takes about 25 minutes to complete with 500-700 transactions being replicated. This also causes the application that is accessing the DB being replicated to become unresponsive when it attempts to retrieve rows from tables in the DB.

Might there be a setting that causes the transactional replication to accumulate transactions during the day?

Transactions - Problem With Commit 2nd Time Round

May 27, 2006

Hope this is the right forum. I'm using Transaction=required on a page which inserts on multiple tables, 2 of which have a foreign key relationship. All works fine as log as I don't input erroneous data. However, I have a range check in the code, and if the range is exceeded, an exception is thrown and the transaction fails using ContextUtil.SetAbort(). I then correct the data and try to save and get a Foreign key contraint error. I have debugged and the primary key table seems to be carrying out the insert ok (I'm retreiving the key at that point, and can see it). But when I use the key in the child table it fails and cites the foreign key relationship.
I suspect that having the same data for the primary key table 2nd time around means it doesn't think it has to commit????
Grateful for any help. I'm using Sqlserver 2005 by the way.

SQL 2012 :: Replication Transactions Per Second Benchmark?

Apr 25, 2014

how many transactions per second transactional replication can handle?

Server has 128GB RAM, 12 core 2 Process (24 core total) each transaction is approximately 32k.

Publisher and Subscriber are on different servers on same LAN, separate disks for logs, data, indexes and tempDB.

I've found data on how many transactions per second SQL Server can handle but nothing on replication.

Selective Replication Of DELETE Transactions

Jul 19, 2006

I am beginning design for a project to maintain an on-line archive of historical data for a production database, and then truncate old, rarely-used data from the production database. I am considering a method whereby we (A) replicate data changes from the production database to an archive database and (B) truncate old data from the production database according to predetermined business rules.

I am trying to determine whether SQL Server merge or transactional replication can be used to accomplish the replication portion of this requirement.

Given this scenario, there are two types of modifications that are made to the production database: (1) application inserts, deletes and updates which should be replicated, and (2) truncation deletes (as described in "B", above) which should not be replicated.

My question is: Will I be able to control the replication process such that application deletes are replicated, but "truncation" deletes are not? Could static row filters somehow be used to accomplish this?

Skipping Transactions In SQL Server Transaction Replication

Jun 14, 2007

I'm trying to create a transaction replication from SQL Server 2000 to 2005. Basic replication between the servers works just fine. However, what I want to accomplish is to be able to skip some of the transactions. Example - from time to time we want to purge some of the historical data from the main database (the publisher). We don't want the same purging to occur on the destination database, which will be used for reporting purposes and needs to include all the historical information. I wanted to simply stop the replication log reader, purge the records, backup the transaction log with truncation and then restart the reader. The only problem - the truncation on the replicated database keeps the transactions of the purging until they are replicated, so the transaction log backup doesn't help. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Undistributed Commands Not Decrementing

Apr 7, 2008

I was pointed to this forum by one of the admins who has started doing some consulting work for us. We did a major conversion over the weekend for our main production server to SQL 2005 from SQL 2000. We have used replication to go from the live OLTP server to a few dedicated report servers for all of our reporting needs. In 2000 this was pretty well established (though a pain when we had to migrate in changes; I love the 2005 schema features for replication).

The only problem we have really encountered today, the Day After, involves replication. A few minor things involve lack of knowledge (like nonclustered indexes don't replicate by default, that was an OOPS). But one thing I haven't figured out yet.

Replication is working -- we are updating three servers, and all three servers are getting updates. I have run a validation on one of them and it passed in full. However, the "undistributed commands" count never goes down. It actually keeps going up and up. I verified that by first running this on the subscriber:




select transaction_timestamp
from MSreplication_subscriptions



And taking the results of one of the three rows that came back and executing this with it:




sp_browsereplcmds @xact_seqno_start = '0x00000231000006ED000100000001'




which brought back all of the "undistributed commands". Within that list, I looked for sp_MSins_ procedures. I found a few and looked up on the subscriber the value to be inserted -- and it existed on the subscriber. So it still is in MSrepl_commands even though it has been sent out.



I am afraid that eventually the system will "think" that the process isn't working and deactivate the subscriptions. Also this is useless as a monitor. Since this is our first major replication in 2005, I am willing to bet that we are missing something. Does anyone have any advice?

Undistributed Commands Keeps Growing

May 21, 2007

I have a sql2005 transactional replication replicating several databases between 4 servers, all of the replication are working fine except 1 that is going to a sql2000 sp4 enterprise database. The undistributed commands grows by several hundred thousand records a day, yet all of the records counts match exactly. At first this server was having a lot of lock issues, so i thought maybe that was the cause, but over the weekend i dropped replication and resnapshotted it. Without any activity ocurring on this database this weekend it continued to grow at the same rate

Transactions Are Still Pending For Distribution After Disable Transactional Replication

Apr 11, 2007

Recently we disabled the transactional replication on a prodution database(data size:300GB) , two weeks later we were aware of the transaction log of that db almost reached the limitation (70GB).I investigated the issues and found:

1. open transactions pending for distribution:

DBCC opentran('xxxx')



Replicated Transaction Information:

Oldest distributed LSN : (0:0:0)

Oldest non-distributed LSN : (323830:7083:1)

DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, contact your system administrator.



2. exec sp_replcounters, got over 240,000 replicated_transactions, which caused the tran log extremely large.



The transactional replication has been disabled on this server, there are no publication, distribution DBs any longer, all replication-related agents are also gone, why did this still happen???



3. use sp_repldone manaully reset those 240,000 transactions to distributed, check opentran, it was fine for a while. The tran log file was freed up 99% after that.



4. check open transactions and run sp_replcounters today, found the over 60000 transactions again on the db.



Did anybody experience the same issue and knows how to fix this issue and stop this happening ?



Many Thanks,

Henry

Commiting Transactions/Truncating Transactional Logs/Replication Latency

Feb 22, 2008

Hi,

I have multiple questions and would appreciate any suggestions in resolving them. I'm a novice to these issues.

1) First of all, what is the exact command to setup the trunc. log on chkpt. option on for a transactional log of a SQL Server 2000 database? Is this option on by default? I have noticed for one of the databases I'm managing that the transaction log was over 12 GB, while the db was only 425 MB.

2) How's it possible to run a DBCC TRACEON to see the content of the transaction log to see if we are having any issues with any uncommitted transactions, i.e. updates, inserts, and/or deletes.

3) What are the commands to truncate inactive transactions and increasing the readbatchsize?

4) lastly, how do I validate transactional replication via checksum and find valid latency between a small number of changes that need to be committed between publisher and subscriber.

Thank you so much in advance!
Sincerely,
Alla

Replication :: Merge Agent Not Applying Transactions In Bulk On First Initialization Of A Subscriber

May 12, 2015

We have a filtered publisher (SQL Server 2012) with several pull and push subscriptions that have been functioning fine for years.

We have just added a new pull subscriber from a remote server.  We configured an alternate folder location on the subscriber (pointing to existing path on a remote server).  We generated new snapshot and partitioned snapshot, and moved to subscribing server at alternate path.We're seeing a problem we've never seen before:

When the merge agent runs, it applies the schema and performs a few hundred bulk inserts, but then proceeds to 'download changes to subscriber' as though the snapshot is old (it is brand new and should have all transactions).  We have never seen this before, i.e. all data is usually applied in bulk when creating a new or reinitializing an existing subscriber.

we marked the subscriber for re-initialization (from both the publishing and subscribing server) with a fresh set of snapshots.  The same problem occurred.We have also tried in our test environment (which mirrors production) and the snapshot applies as expected (via bulk inserts).

(It might be relevant to note the publisher was recently upgraded in-place from 2005 to 2012.)

Job Is Disabling Every Night

Apr 12, 2002

Please help if you can! I have setup a job that runs every day on an hourly basis. Every morning I find that it's been disabled. The funny thing is is that the schedule is disabled, but the job is not (you see 'Enabled' in the jobs list in EM, but when you view the schedules tab, it's disabled.) Also, it runs a several times before becoming disabled.

TIA,

Error On Build Solution, If SSIS Project Is Part Of Build

Mar 22, 2006

Hello,

we have automated build on every night. In our solution is SSIS project, where each package is encrypted per password. We call build process per command line like this..

C:ProgrammeMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEdevenv.exe (c:DevelopmentX3\X3.sln /build Release)' in 'c:DevelopmentProjectsDailyBuild

Through build process we get a error:


External Program Failed: C:ProgrammeMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEdevenv.exe (return code was 1):

We think a reason is, that on build of SSIS project must be entered a password. You can wonder for what we need that SSIS packages are part of our build. We hope that on build process is also created Deployment Utility, if so set in dtproject.user. Is it so? Is there any way to create Deployment utility on automated build process? Can be a password provided pre command line?

with best regards

Shrinking A Log File Every Night

Dec 13, 2007



I have a relatively high usage 2005 database whose transaction log grows every day.

Untill now I have been manually shrinking the log files .. but I would like to automate this process.

In the maintenance schedule that runs every night

1 Do a full backup to disk
2. Do a transaction log backup to disk
3. run the following TSQL

USE [MyDB];
GO
ALTER DATABASE MyDB
SET RECOVERY SIMPLE;
GO
DBCC SHRINKFILE (MyDB_log, 3000)
GO
ALTER DATABASE MyDB
SET RECOVERY FULL;
GO

4. Backup disk files to tape.

however it doesn't work !! the TLOG file does not shrink, even though its the same as the manual job that I run?

There is nothing in the SQL logs .. but in the event log I get

Event Type: Error
Event Source: SQLISPackage
Event Category: None
Event ID: 12291
Date: 13/12/2007
Time: 00:50:10
User: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM
Computer: ALGSQL1
Description:
Package "MyDB_FULL_BACKUP" failed.
For more information, see Help and Support Center

any ideas ?

Creating A Report That Is Emailed Every Night

Oct 10, 2007

Hi,

Some of you might remember me posting a question about importing data from a csv. Well I've managed to do that now by writing a vb.net service.

Now all I need to do is have some kind of method of exporting the data as a report via email every night.

The tables are as follows...

CDetails
cNumber
ClName
FE

Disb_1
cNumber
type
dateReq
payee
amount
vat
total
chequeReq

Disb_2 - Disb_20
"Same as Disb_1"

The report structure I need is...

cNumber ClName FE type dateReq payee amount vat total chequeReq

With data from each disb on a new line, i.e. cNumber could be the same for 20 rows! (don't blame me, it's what they want!)

The records should only be shown though when the dateReq is equal to today. I think I can do that with the DateDiff function.

The problem I have is knowing how to set the report up and what to do it in, Reporting services or Business Intelligence. The report only has to be an email, would it even be simpler to write an extra class into my service?

Data Changes Made Late At Night Dissapear

Sep 10, 2005

Hi,Sorry for the obscure title but I'm afraid I can't think of a betterway to describe what happened to one of my clerks last night. The guy wasworking late, made a series of changes (accross a number of tables with adependant relationship structure - i.e. a customer linked to an order linkedto an invoice linked to a payments etc.) Now when he came back this morningnone of the work he did last night was still there. I'm by no means asql-pro - but I've managed to make do so far. Here's what I know:1) All of our records in all of our tables have date/time stamped. Once whenthey go in and once when they're changed. So with a little work I can buildup a good picture of what usage our database gets at what times. I've pulledup a query and there is a big fat hole between 8pm-10pm - stuff thathappened before that is still there, stuff that happened after that is stillthere - but all the changes that were put in between then just aren't thereany more. So it's not just insertions but updates as well.2) There is no perceivable break in our identity columns. So despite thefact that I know he entered 7 new customers, I can go back through thecustomers table and look at where those customers should sit visa vie entrytimes - and it's just as though the customers he entered never existed -sql server just keeps incrementing sequentially and there's no break - sothe last customer entered at about 6:50 pm was something like number 11912and the customers entered this morning have numbers that carry on from11913.3) I'm running in a shared environment - the server is hosted by awebhosting company (who shall remain nameless unless I can prove it's theirfault!) based in the US - the server has 100's of other Users databasesrunning on it.I just don't know where to begin diagnosing this sort of problem. But it hasme really running scared. It's not the first time something like this hashappened to me (i've noticed it once before when I had to get a connectionkilled by the people who manage our server because of a long-running querythat seemed to have just got bunged up and was locking a key table) - butthat was just a few records changed by the user who's connection got killed.Nothing like this... but it's pretty scary - I've got no way of knowing thatI'm losing changes like this on a continuous basis. It's my worstnightmare - like a pipe leaking underneath a floor board - and you only findout when the water starts running down the stairs!Has anyone got any ideas? Any starting places? Anyone else had anything likethis happen to them before?ThanksNick

Vista Installs SQL Server 2005 SP1 Every Night!!

Jan 12, 2007

With Vista Ultimate (release), I installed SQL server 2005 Developer edition. I installed SP1, apparently successfully. But my Windows update history shows the SP being installed successfully every night. I have automatic updating turned on (via AD policy).

Has anyone seen this, and does anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks in advance.

Changing Connection Transactions To Database Transactions

May 22, 2005

Hi there,
I have decided to move all my transaction handling from asp.net to stored procedures in a SQL Server 2000 database. I know the database is capable of rolling back the transactions just like myTransaction.Rollback() in asp.net. But what about exceptions? In asp.net, I am used to doing the following:
<code>Try   'execute commands   myTransaction.Commit()Catch ex As Exception   Response.Write(ex.Message)   myTransaction.Rollback()End Try</code>Will the database inform me of any exceptions (and their messages)? Do I need to put anything explicit in my stored procedure other than rollback transaction?
Any help is greatly appreciated

SQL Real Time Replication

May 6, 2001

We are using SQL 7 at 2 different locations, on 2 different Domains that are connected via a T1 line.

We need to have our 2 SQL servers be identical at all times, meaning when a change is made on one server, it is immediately replicated to the other. The problem is that both servers are always being used, so there is no primary/backup server scenario.

Does anyone know if there is a third party software available, or if this is even possible to do, given the fact that the databases are always open ?

Thanks.

Is There A Limit On The Time Replication Can Be Down?

May 31, 2007

I was asked if there was a limit on the amount of clock time that the Replication agents may be down without snapshotting the subscribers. I think that the only factor is if the MSDB database contains the necessary data to feed a restarted Replication Agent.



Any comments?

SQL 2012 :: Performing Point In Time Recovery With Replication?

SQL Server 2008 :: Replication Articles Read-only AND Updateable At Same Time

Apr 21, 2015

We have many users with a mobile application running SQL Mobile and using merge replication to get data back to the SQL 2008 R2 database. This has worked very well for many years.

We now have a requirement to have this data reported on using Reporting Services. This is where it gets messy.

Due to a limitation of Report Builder(see this blog) we cannot provide access to users for creating their own reports. The report database is remote from the host and there is no VPN.

We hit upon the idea of creating an almost identical publication but the articles as read-only. It was only after this was done that we started having trouble with our existing mobile users.

It seems that a published article is EITHER Bi-directional OR Read-only even if they are in separate publications.

I then thought of using Transactional Publication but this too is blocked on creation with "automatic identity range support is useful only for publications that allow updating subscribers"(Merge and Transactional publication are mutually exclusive)

So in the final analysis is there a way for me to have merge replication AND some other form of SQL replication/data transfer that can have the same data transmitted readonly to a separate full SQL server database?

Replication Performance Degrade In Unidirectional Direction And Lock Time Out (Update Are High Than Inserts)

Feb 21, 2007

 

We recently implemented merge replication.We were expereincing. The replication is between 2 SQL Servers (2005) over same network box, and since we have introduced the replication, the performance has degraded considerably on subscriber end.

1)   One thing that should be mention is that its a "unidirectional Direction" flow of changes is from publisher towards subscriber (only one publisher and distributor as well and one subscriber ).

2) Updates are high than inserts and only one article let say "Article1" ave update up to 2000 per day and i am experiecing that dbo.MSmerge_upd_sp_Article1_GUID taking more cpu time.what should be do..

 

on subscriber database  response time is going to slow and i am experiencing a lot of number of LOCK time outs on application end.

can any one can also suggest me server level settings for aviding locking time out.

 

looking for any experieced solution/suggestion.

Thanks in advance.
