SQL 2012 :: Configure Transactional Replication On AAG Or FCI
Dec 15, 2014
We are planning to setup HA using either AAG or FC. ON my production environment (P), I have transnational replication configured for 2 of databases out of three. These data get replicated to another server( C1) hosted on cloud, with local distributor at P.
If I configure AAG/ FCI , how do I handle failover?I wanted to setup P as primary AAG with two replicas as S1 and S2. P->S1 will be synchronous while P->S2 will be asynchronous.Incase my P goes down how the replication will failover S1? Incase P and S1 goes down how do I failover to S2 with the replication.

Hello
I have server "123456" SQL 2005 On clustered environment. I added permissions to snapshot folder, it is on sharing for both nodes.

I wanted to schedule the transaction replication. How do I do it? Currently I have set up a transaction replication which runs continuously and synchronizes the changes with immediate effect.
I need to configure a replication which will gather logs from the publication once in a day.
Is there any possibility?

So, Microsoft decided that they were deprecating Transactional Replication with Updatable subscriptions. In that case, you have 2 options (if I am correct): Pay for Enterprise (if you are already not) and use peer-to-peer or use bidirectional transactional replication which is basically setting up a transactional from db1 to db2 and also transactional from db2 to db1.
The issue I see in both cases is conflict resolution. With updatable subscriptions, you could specify how to handle the conflict. With either of these 2 options (from what I can tell) you cannot allow the engine to handle this for you.
Any thoughts? Seems like a slap in the face to those who have been using MS for years and a damn good reason for companies that rely on updatable subscriptions to not upgrade to 2012.

I built a number of publications on a SQL Server 2005 box to replicate to a SQL Server 2012 subscriber. All the publications except one are fine. During the snapshot phase of schema script generation I get Script Failed for Table 'dbo.MediaDisplayLibraryFileData'. From the Replication monitor for the Snapshot Agent on the Publication I get, "Column FileData in object MediaDisplayLibraryFileData contains type VarBinaryMax, which is not supported in the target server version, SQL Server 2000." This message makes no sense since the target server version is 2012. I have even checked that the compatibility level was set to 110 before I started the process of setting up replication. How do I resolve this error?

We are runnning on SQL Server 2012 SP1 + CU9.
I have found some articles with no publication in our transactional replication.
For example, running this:
select p.publication,
a.publication_id,
a.article
from dbo.MSArticles as a
left outer join dbo.MSpublications as p
on a.publication_id = p.publication_id
shows this:
NULL1org_Community
NULL3org_Community
Purchasing to EDW5org_Community
NULL1org_Division
NULL3org_Division
Purchasing to EDW5org_Division
How can I get rid of the articles that are not part of a publication?
I can't use sp_droparticle because it requires a publication which these articles do not have.

I am using SQL 2012 SE and implementing transactional replication. I need to insert the rows from publisher database tables to new tables, drop the old tables and rename the new tables with the old table names.
For example:
Publisher database tables that are being replicated:
Table1
Table2
Table3
and I am going to create new tables in publisher database
Table1_new
Table2_new
Table3_new
Move data from
Table1--->Table1_new
Table2--->Table2_new
Table3--->Table3_new
Drop constraints from and then tables (does this require articles to be removed from replication?)
Table1
Table2
Table3
Rename
Table1_new to Table1
Table2_new to Table2
Table3_new to Table3
Does this require replication to set up from scratch or add the three articles only to replication? Is there a way this can be done without pausing or reinitializing replication or without removing articles and adding them back?

I have an existing publication in sql 2012 with 2 articles, and then I add 2 more articles. After that when I generate a snapshot, will the snapshot be generated for 2 new articles only or for all 4 articles?
I remember adding 1 new articles to one existing publication with 150 articles and when I generated snapshot, it was generated only for 1 article. But I don't remember clearly.
Does it behave differently for small and large number of articles?

We have a database which is (a subset of tables are) replicated to another via transactional replication. Whilst most changes made at the published database reach the subscriber within a matter of seconds, we have a SQL Agent job which performs a calculation in the published database and then immediately exports data from the subscriber using log shipping. The result is that the calculated changes do not make it through to the exported transaction logs in time.
Is there a way to manually "refresh" the subscriber databases using T-SQL?

I have a transactional replication environment that creates subscribers on another server as a staging area for an ETL process to a data warehouse application on a 3rd server which is the report repository. Currently the ETL process runs every 10 minutes and performs it's function across approx 150+ subscriber databases and consolidates it to the data warehouse.
I have an SLA of 2 minutes. I'd like to rework the ETL process (which run as SSIS job at the moment) to be specific to a single database and fire that one ETL proces when changes have been applied to that subscriber database only. Of these 150+ databases generally only about 8-10 are updating the subscriber at any given time per Repl Monitor. I'm thinking that if I only have a few transactions to apply to a single db the ETL would run in seconds dynamically as the subscriber is update.
The issue is how to fire the ETL process upon completion of updates to the subscriber DB? I'm thinking of using SP_Start_job passing the DBID to update the warehouse but unsure whether this is possible but if so where to trigger it.

Hello,
I'm interested in combining the Peer-to-Peer Transactional Replication and Standard Transactional Replication to provide a scale out solution of SQL Server 2005. The condition is as follows:
We may have 10 SQL Server 2005 (1 Publisher + 9 Subscriber) running transactional replication in the production environment and allow updates in subscribers. To offload the loading of the publisher, we plan to have 2 Publisher (PubNode1 and PubNode2) using Peer-to-Peer Transaction Replication and the rest 8 subscribers will be divided into 2 groups. The subscribers 1-4 (SubNode1, SubNode2, SubNode3, and SubNode4) will be set to be standard transactional replication subscribers of PubNode1, and the rest 4 subscribers (SubNode5, ..., SubNode8) will be set to be standard transactional replication subscribers of PubNode2.
Is it possible to setup above 2 Publisher + 8 Subscriber topology?
Also, could we set the 8 subscribers with updatable subscriptions to achieve each node is updatable?
We do not plan to set all the 10 nodes using Peer-to-Peer Transactional Replication as it is necessary to make sure n*(n-1)/2 (i.e. 45) peer-to-peer connections is reliable. It seems that the maintenance cost is high if the servers are not in a LAN and the topology is very high coupling. So we prefer to divide the 10 nodes into 2 groups and reduce the cost of each node to maintain the connections to all other sites.
That's the scenario.
Any feedback is welcome and appreciated.
Thanks,
Terence

Hi,I have transactional replication set up on on of our MS SQL 2000 (SP4)Std Edition database serverBecause of an unfortunate scenario, I had to restore one of thepublication databases. I scripted the replication module and droppedthe publication first. Then did a full restore.When I try to set up the replication thru the script, it created thepublication with the following error messageServer: Msg 2714, Level 16, State 5, Procedure SYNC_FCR ToGPRPTS_GL00100, Line 1There is already an object named 'SYNC_FCR To GPRPTS_GL00100' in thedatabase.It seems the previous replication has set up these system viewsSYNC_FCR To GPRPTS_GL00100. And I have tried dropping the replicationmodule again to see if it drops the views but it didn't.The replication fails with some wired error & complains about thisviews when I try to run the synch..I even tried running the sp_removedbreplication to drop thereplication module, but the views do not seem to disappear.My question is how do I remove these system views or how do I make thereplication work without using these views or create new views.. Whyis this creating those system views in the first place?I would appreciate if anyone can help me fix this issue. Please feelfree to let me know if any additional information or scripts needed.Thanks in advance..Regards,Aravin Rajendra.

I have been researching on the proper steps or sequence to follow to completely remove SQL Server 2012 Transactional Replication. I have read articles about using SSMS as well as using replication stored procedures and some procedures use SQLCMD or just regular TSQL executed in SSMS. I have also read articles where people said all you really need is connect to the Publisher instance, find the publication you want to remove and choose "Delete" and everything will be taken care of behind the scene. I have three SQL servers that participate in transactional replication. SQL-P (publisher),
SQL-D (distributor) and SQL-S (subscriber). Do I need to connect to the distributor instance and the subscriber instance when removing transactional replication or is it just really connecting to the publisher and click delete on the publication? I want everything gone including any metadata, systems tables, distributions db and any other replication objects created during the initial configuration.

I am working on bringing our disaster recovery site to be a live site. Currently we replicate to one of out servers (server B) with merge replication (from server A). Server A also does one way transactional replication form some table to several other servers including servers at the DR site.
This setup is not going to be fast enough for what we need so I am wondering if a table is receiving merge replication will the merge updates also replicate down the transaction path??
Example...
Server B update a row and merges to Server A. With this update them replicate (via transactional) to Server C??
thanks...

I have a software that is running with SQL Server 2005. The software has an utility to configure replication between 2 databases. When I was trying to configure it, for some reason the tool convert my main user database under system databases.
I need to put it back again under user databases.
Im thinking to backup my database first and put it offline and the restore the database again. But Im not to expert in SQL and also I am not sure if this will work putting back the database as a user database.

On my distribution server there is a directory called mssql7
epldataunc that houses the bcp, sch and idx files for replications. A directory is created for each publication. Most directories are empty but some contain all the table idx, sch and bcp files for the publication. Some of these files are over 6 month. Does anyone know if these files are neccessary to keep and why do only some publications have these files. I am wondering if they are kept when you push the publicaiton and it errors out originally and you have to restart it? If any one can shed some like on this I would appreciate it.

Hi,
I am planning to do a transactional replication from production server to reporting server. In one of my database is having 150 tables in it, only 100 tables are having primary key . Remaining tables are not have primary keys. So i am not able to do transactional replication for those 50 tables. Could any one tell me how i have to approch transactional replication. Because i need to have production data at my reporting server in regular interval.
So pls suggest me .
I am using Sql 7.0 with service pack2.
Thanks!

I have a problem with transactional replication in SQL Server 7. I have two databases (a publisher-distributor server and a suscriber server) and when I do an UPDATE in the publisher database the Log Agent Reader reads the UPDATE as an DELETE-INSERT and when the suscriber pull the suscription and try to do first the DELETE the transactional replication stops because of the Foreign Keys in the suscriptor database (that are the same as the publisher).
If anybody knows how to solve it, please tell me
Thanks

I have two servers networked via workgroups (no domain) and am trying to install Transactional Replication. Everything appears to install correctly, but when I run the initial Snapshot Agent I get the following error -
The process could not create file 'CONCEPCIONC$MSSQL7ReplDatauncCONCEPCION_Erik_Rep lication_Erik_Replication19991029153207Employer.sc h'.
Access is denied.
The SQLAgent is starting with same user account on both machines - admin rights and the same password. I have added this user to the (
epldata) folder permissions as well. I even see a "Employer.sch" file in the directory.
What am I missing?

Hello,
I am planning to implement replication between two servers (either snapshot/transactional). Those two servers are physically connected but we don't have domain concept i.e we connected both servers physically and it can be pinked from each other, but not under any domain (not also under different domain). How should I register SQL server& agent services to start with 'Service startup Account'. In this case I cannot start both servers using same domain Account, they how can I relate...
Thanks

Hi guys can anyone help me with this issue. if so thankyou kindly.
1. created transactional publication (for tables, stored procs & views )
2. created empty database at subscriber
3. set up pull subscription at subscriber
4. ran the initial snapshot agent at the publisher
5. checked the schema files & found out it hadn't scripted the primary keys on the tables.
Problem: PRIMARY KEY AINT GOIN ACROSS, COULD ANYONE TELL ME IF IVE MISSED SOMETHING? THANK YOU MUCH APPRECIATED GUYS.
? Could it be that it is not picking up the primary keys on the tables because I am replicating stored procs and views with that publication?
? Should I break my publications into 3; say 1 for each object?
Thank you guys for taking the time to read this.

Hello all! I am setting up my first Replicated database, and want to get this right.
We are a Newspaper, and I will be Publishing the database that is the back end of the web server. The goal is to load balance the web site as well as to have a second identical server in case something goes wrong. Both the Subscriber and the Publisher need to be kept in sync as new articles are posted, so my client will just be updating the Publisher. But I'd like to keep a single set of usage statistics, so I was thinking of using Immediate Updating so the Subscriber can update the Publisher using two-phase commit.
What will happen if the Publisher shuts down and an update is attempted on the Subscriber? Will it just hang? Let's assume the worst - what if my Publisher is kaput? How do I determine that my other database is a Subscriber; and how do I stop it from being a Subscriber?
Thanks in Advance,

Hi
I have a requirement for pushing transactional publication to various subscribers. Each subscriber will need to receive a different subset of rows from a table. So I need all rows published, but with horizontal filtering at subscriber level. Is there a way of applying filtering at the subscription level.
Thanks

I am using transactional replication between two SQL 2005 databases. On Sunday evenings, we run a maintenance plan that rebuilds the indexes on the publisher DB. When the plan runs, the replication receives errors and cannot continue. The error appears to be at the publisher level. The publisher runs continually and the subcriber runs every 10 minutes. The error states "cannot run sp_replcmds" Other than Sunday, everything runs fine.
Thank you

at the 'specify articles" on the wizard. Some tables have a key next to it that doesn't let me select them to be replicated. This is happens on transactional replication. But if i do a snapshot, the keys next to the tables are not there.
How am I able to select those tables with a key?

Hi All!
Need help guys... I'm new to SQL Replication, though I successfully created a transactional replication testing on my machine using PUBS DB and a separate DB.
I'm planning to establish/setup a Transactional Replication. There are two SQL Servers, one is being used by WebApp_1 and the other is being used by WebApp_2. Both servers are maintain by different administrators and situated on different domain/location (both used Win2003 Server). We will transfer some data from Server_1 to Server_2. Server_1 will be setup as Publisher and the other is the Subscriber, then additonalServer_3 will be added and will serve as the Distibutor.
My questions are:
1. Do I need to request separate domain account from the two different servers to establish connection to the Distributor?
2. Will the User databases from Publisher in compromise/affected as far as database settings and data are concerned?
3. Any useful links?
Any help provided will be greatly appreciated...
Thanks!

Hopefully simple question:
How to configure replication so that replication triggers issue a SET NOCOUNT ON?
Also: are there any negative consequences of adding a SET NOCOUNT ON to replication triggers?
I'm not a DBA so my experience with replication is pretty much non-existent. Hopefully, there's a simple configuration option that I can apply when setting up replication for a database. If not, is it going to be feasible for me to write a script that runs over the replication triggers/procs to add this SET statement (any pointers on inbuilt procs that would help here would be real useful)?
Thanks in advance

Hi everybody,
I'm still pretty new when it comes to SQL server and I'd like to get some opinions about replication. I need to set up replication between 10 sites. The database is about 2 GB and at each size about 10 users are entering data. The databases need to be synchronized at least 3 times a day. Now our application developer told us to use transactional replication while I'm thinking of using merge replication.
Can anyone give me some more advice about the pro and cons of either replication type.
TIA

Hi Guys,
I have a small problem with the transactional replication when I run the initial snapshot and distributing some of the stored procedures. For eg., Say if the stored procedure has the following statements:
---------------------------------------
create procedure abc
as
declare @paytype varchar(50)
set @paytype='check'
insert into acct select cusname,cusacctno,@paytype from cuspay
---------------------------------------
I get the following error:
for statement:
set @paytype='check'
--------------------
Invalid column name 'check'.
(Source: ServerSQL1 (Data source); Error number: 207)
I tried changing to double quotes. even tried adding article using query analyzer without using EM
exec sp_addarticle @publication = N'ReplicationSrc', @article = N'abc', @source_owner = N'dbo', @source_object = N'abc', @destination_table = N'abc', @type = N'proc schema only', @creation_script = null, @description = null, @pre_creation_cmd = N'drop', @schema_option = 0x0000000000000001, @status = 16
GO
Still I get the same error. The server has SQL server 2000 SP2 running with remote distributor and pull subscription.
Am I missing anything.
Please help.
Thanks,
Anu
