SQL 2012 :: Transactional Replication Publisher Tables Renamed?
Apr 1, 2015
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 taken over a transactional replication setup that is being usedfor fault tolerance (I know, I know...).The scenario I am concerned with is where the publisher goes down due tofailure, so we need to point our application at the subscriber and startupdating the data there. We are not using the immediate updating option.How do I go about re-syncing the publisher with the data that been addedto, or changed on the subscriber, when the publisher comes back online?Thanks,TGru*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

I have a primary and secondary servers both running Windows 2000 SP3 with SQL 2000 SP3. I have set up transactional replication with the primary server as publisher and the secondary server has the distributor and subscriber DB. I am testing the scenerio where my primary server goes down and I have to make updates to the secondary server until my primary server comes back up. I am able to update my subscriber database and the transactions go into the MSreplication_queue table to be pushed back to the primary when it comes back up. When I bring the primary server back up and start the queue agent job it starts pushing the transactions over and then stops after 4 or 5 transactions with the error "Failed while applying queued message to publisher". I have attached part of the log file for the agent below

Hello,
Are there any requirements that dictate the SQL Server version for the distribution agent for a SQL 2000 publisher with a transactional push subscription to a SQL 2005 subscriber?
Thanks in advance,

I have a wired situation..!I set up transactional replication on one of my development server (SQL2000 Dev Edition with sp4).It is running fine without any issues and all of a sudden, i noticed inmy repication monitor tab under Publisher where I usually see thepublication is empty now.I do see the snapshot agent, log reader and distribution agent under myagents inside the replication Monitor. But its usefull to see all 3agents in one window under publisher before. What happend? Is there anyway to get that inside that monitor? Has someone encountered thissitation before? Please advise....After that I tried to create a new set of replication on differentdatabase on the same server and i dont see those either underReplication Monitor - Publishers....All it says is (No Items)....I would appreciate any help to correct this issue... Thanks in advance..

I have a setup of transaction replication between one publisher and subscriber in the Same server.Now, I need to add a new subscriber to the existing publisher. So publisher database name is DB_A and Subscriber 1 name is DB_B. So the new subscriber will be DB_C. Is this kind of setup possible on one server?
If yes then at the time of reinitialization is it going to apply the snapshot on DB_B as well as DB_C?Also let say if due to disk error DB_B gets corrupted then will data be still replicated between DB_A and DB_C? (Assuming publisher, subscriber 1 and 2 are sitting on individual disks).

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.

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.

HiI tried posting this query in microsoft.public.sqlserver.programming but gotno response.I am new to replication but I am trying to setup up a transactionalreplication of tables from one database to another in MSSQL 2000 (SP2).My target tables have primary keys defined. Under publication properties Igo to the snapshot tab and for each table I clear the check box that says"Drop the existing table and re-create-it" and "clustered Indexes." On thispage the nothing is checked. for each table.Whenever the subscription is reinitialized it drops the primary keys on mytarget tablesand replaces them with a unique clustered index on the column that used tobethe Primary key.Is this normal? Is there anyway to stop it from doing this?I don't plan to send the snapshot more than once and let transactionalreplication take over for keeping my source and target in sync, but if Iever have to reinitialize the subscription, it would seem that I (orsomeone) willhave to take the a second step of manually dropping these clustered indexesand recreating the primary keys on the target table.Thanks in advance.---Dick Christoph---Dick ChristophJoin Bytes!612-724-9282

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 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?

Can Express edition be a publisher for transactional replication with SQL-DMO? Does scripting out and editing it work? Does stored procedure work for this purpose?

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.

Hi;
In http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=71679 topic, it is stated that SQL-DMO can be used to make msde publisher for transactional replication.
But in http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=71983 topic, Rishi said that "No Express Edition cant act as Publisher".
I am not clear about the difference btw msde and express.
Why msde can be publisher for transactional replication by SQL-DMO and why express edition can not be?
Thank you so much...

I have configured transactional publication where some tables have a simple row filter. And I made a supscription to this publication. When I make snapshot and replication initialization, all rows are updated correctly and passed to subscriber. But when I change some column at a row included by filter at publisher, it is never updated on the subscriber. Other tables and that same table when I remove filter is updated correctly.
What can be problem?
I am using SQL Server 2005 Standard for publisher, and SQL Express 2005 for subscriber, both with SP2.
Any help would be apritiated.
Thanks,
Tomas

I had a cluster running on 3 nodes (windows failover cluster) with server 2012 and SQL server 2012 running in the cluster. Well, I thought I'd just go ahead and rename all 3 of the hosts with new hostnames and it apparently broke the cluster pretty bad. Now when I open failover cluster manager I cannot see anything nor can I connect to the cluster object in AD. I re-named all of the hosts back to their original names but that didn't work.

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.

We need to replicate data from a live database to a reporting database nightly.
There is data which is only needed for the reporting function - namely the selection criteria for reports which are to be run nightly or monthly.
Is it possible to have extra tables in the target database, holding the selection criteria?
If not, we'll have the reports running heterogeneous queries between the target database and a separate database with the selection criteria in it.

Is it possible to replicate data from one publishers to a multiple subscribers in transaction replication? In other words I have Server A, Server B, Server C with databases A,B,C respectively. I need to replicate 10 articles from A to B but only 1 from A to C. In other words I want to use the same publisher but select one article from that publisher instead of all 10 to Server C/database C.
If it is possible what will be the drawbacks of such implementation? Will performance be a hit?

Hi,
Before this, I've 2 difference site that run SQL server 2000 as database server. One at north and the other at west.
At north, I've a group of terminal that run SQL server 2000. I've 1 main server that run as publisher and distributor to all the terminal. And also the main database is at the main server. The terminal will replicate together using merge replication. So that the data would be same at all terminal. At west it also have the same scenario.
Last week my boss ask me to replicate both main server ( north and west ). So that he want the data would be same at all place.
So, can anybody help me.....

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 want to create the publisher and the distributer at thesame machine however I got this error" SQL Server Agent on <machine name> currently uses the system account,which causes replication between servers to fail. In the fallowingdialog box, specify another account for the Service start up account"If I skip this error does it cause any problem? or how can I fix thisproblem?
