Same Article In Different Publications

Sep 23, 2005

Hi!

Dropping Article On Transaction Publications.

Dec 8, 2006

In 2005 transactional replication, The following procedure worked (without dropping the subscription) when I dropped an article from a replicated database:

Drop article: On Publication Properties, uncheck the article (table, stored procedure or function).

Create a new snapshot.

Synchronize the push subscription.

DROP the article on the Publication and Subscriber databases.

Replication still works!
However, the following article says the subscription needs to be dropped and re-created when an article is dropped from publication: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms152493.aspx (Adding Articles to and Dropping Articles from Existing Publications ). For transactional publications, articles can be dropped with no special considerations prior to subscriptions being created. If an article is dropped after one or more subscriptions is created, the subscriptions must be dropped, recreated, and synchronized.
Under what conditions is dropping the subscription and recreating it absolutely necessary? I do not want to include this extra step.

Replication - Publications

Dec 8, 1999

I'm trying to set up replication between two servers that both used to have SQL Server 6.5 on them. I was previously getting a 'The ID '114' was not found in the tasks collection' message and so decided to be on the safe side and remove and re-install SQL Server on both machines. Having successfully re-installed SQL Server 6.5 on both machines I then thought I'd try and set-up replication again. BUT as soon as try to install the publishing side of it the only option I have is to uninstall publishing ???? SQL Server on both machines appeared to uninstall and install nicely so how come it's still asking if I want to uninstall publishing ????

Any ideas would make my Xmas.

thanks Paul

Scripting Publications Via RMO

May 5, 2007

Hi

My first attempt at RMO is to create a job that will generate the SQL scripts necessary to recreate publications on a warm stanby server.

I thought I'd got a grip on the RMO object model, but whenever I call the script method, an empty string is generated.

Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

' Create connection to local server

serverConnection = New ServerConnection(".")

Try

' connect to publisher

serverConnection.Connect()

replicationServer = New ReplicationServer(serverConnection)

replicationDatabases = replicationServer.ReplicationDatabases

For Each replicationDatabase In replicationDatabases
If replicationDatabase.HasPublications Then
replicationDatabase.LoadProperties()
Console.WriteLine(replicationDatabase.Script(ScriptOptions.Creation))
End If

Next

Catch ex As Exception

Finally
serverConnection.Disconnect()

End Try

Probem With A Replication With Two Publications

Jun 12, 2006

Hi.

I have a database with two publications.
One publication is used to replicate data among 4 SQL Servers, while the other is used for the replication with SQL Server CE clients.
The problem here is that the SQLCE receive a number of changes that it is not correct.
Before establishing the publication for SQL Servers the SQL CE clients were working great, but now i have this problem.

Is there any patch or fix I should install on the server?, or do you know how can I solve this?

Thank you.

Regarding Publications In Transactional Replication...

Jan 31, 2007

Hi,

We are using transactional replication with updatable subscriptions in SQL Server 2005. In our case both the publisher and the distributor is the same server. The subscription type is the Pull Subscription. It is set to run in the continuous running mode.

Can we have more than one publication in the same Distributor?

Please refer the link below :

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms152471.aspx

This link has a recommendation of the following under the heading "Queued Updating Subscriptions"

"There is only one Queue Reader Agent for each Distributor. It is recommended that for each Distributor, you configure at most one publication that is enabled for queued updating subscriptions."

In our case we need to have 6 publications with 4 subscriptions each (totally 24 Subscriptions).

Pls provide a reply for this asap.

Thanks and Regards,

Swapna.B.

Why Publications Does Not Show In Replications

Sep 6, 2006

Dear All,

Greetings!!

I have installed SQL server 2005 Express and SQL server Mobile, and I was reading the Books online section to find out how to maintain the two databases consistancy.

Found : replication Option.

Problem : It only shows Local Subscriptions in SQL Server and In SQL Server Mobile only Subscription. I dont get a Publication Option.

Please correct if Wrong : SQL Serv Mobile is the one should Publish and SQL Serv hould Subscribe ya?

Please help me to sort this out.

How To Restore Deleted Publications?

Apr 18, 2007

The setup is 3 sql 2000 servers, one with a number of publications, and two with transactional pull subscriptions.

The publications were accidentally deleted from the primary server when replication was removed from an older server that unfortunately had been cnamed to the primary server.

The subscriber servers now error "the subscription does not exist".

I had thought restoring the master and msdb on the publisher would bring the publications back but this has not happened. There are good backups of all the system and user databases on the publisher available, but not the scripts that created the publications for replication. Can anyone suggest how or what to restore to get the publications back on the primary server so we can restart replication?

Thank You!

[edit]
It also may be worth noting that the publisher is it's own distributor in this scenario.

Subscribing To Two Publications On SQLCE

Nov 27, 2006

I have two publications on a SQL Server 2000 database.
I am able to create two subscriptions from another SQL Server 2000 database
and synchronize both in succession.

However when I try to repeat this going from SQL Server 2000 to SQLCE 2.0
it fails. The first goes OK. The second fails.
I get error 80004005, 28521 (The SQL Server CE database is already enabled for publication.
Is it possible to do what I am trying to do on CE?

The reason I have 2 publications is because the first is non-filtered and goes very fast via bcp files when reinitialized.
The second is dynamically filtered and not as fast. Breaking them up makes reinits go much faster.

My code is included below.

All Replication Publications Suddenly Disappear

Jan 8, 2007

Hi:

Did you have any experience that all publications and their related jobs suddenly disappear?

I had a transactional pull replication between two servers, and distributor and subscriber in the same box; publisher was an AA cluster server.
The schedule of pulling was once a week.

Last Friday morning everything was working perfectly, but I found all publications and their related jobs disappear around 5pm

I checked with the sysadmin and he said nothing was changed on that period.

Did you have any idea about it?

Did you have any idea that I can prevent this happen again or any alert I can set up to monitor who drop it, when it was dropped and so on?

It is a SQL 2000 box and system table doest not take trigger.

Thanks in advance

Theresa

Replication Best Practice Question: Split Publications

Aug 31, 2006

I am working on a replication design and getting closer to implementation. One of my major concerns is maintaining and updating stored procs and/or user defined functions.

The current design is a single publication, including tables, procs and functions (no views yet). All told there are about 686 articles in the publication. The tables are horizontally partitioned using dynamic filters based on the hostname of the subscriber. There are around 50 subscribers. Most will have small databases (< 250 MB). A few (2-3) will have much larger databases. I am mostly concerned that whenever I have to update a proc or function, I have to re-initialize the subscriptions and that pushes a TON of data out over the network and may interrupt service at the subscriber locations.

I see three options for the procs and functions:
1. Include them in the publication with the data tables
2. Place them in a separate (snapshot only) publication
3. Exclude them entirely from replication and maintain them manually

I am starting to lean towards option #2; but I am a bit concerned about maintaining a duplicate set of replication agents for each subscriber.

Any thoughts and/or comments?

Regards,

hmscott

Am I overlooking something? Is there an option that I have not considered?

Replication: Transactional: Multi Publications, One Subscriber.

Jul 20, 2005

Greetings All, I was hoping that a replication sage might be able toanswer a question for me.I want to have one subscriber subscribing to N publishers. Iessentially have a company that has a main headquarters and threesatellite offices. I want each of the satellite offices to push theirdata up to the master database. From what I have read it seems likethis should not be a problem. Some questions that come to mind are:1.)Does the master need to be read only or can it be configured to beupdateable as well?2.)Can the distribution agent on all the publishers be set tocontinuously distribute or should it be staggered so as not to cause aproblem when another distribution agent is running?3.)If the distribution is set to "delay distribution" will this causechanges on the subscriber to be pushed out to the publishers?In this database guid's are used as pk's so the issue of pk collisionsis not a problem.I hope that this question is not too vague. My experience thus farwith replication has been simple one way transactional and simplemerge replication.Regards, Louis Frolio

Replication :: Backfill Data After Failed Publications

May 10, 2015

We have setup Transactional Replication that was originally initialized from a backup. Our subscriber recently had some hardware failures causing the publications to fail. We now have the server back up however the transactions for a few days have been missed, and data is now out of sync.

How do I go about resyncing that missing data? We have too many table to manually resync the data, and I cannot restore the database directly from a backup due to some permission issues and differences from the publisher. I've attempted to generate a new snapshot

However I get a message "[0%] A snapshot was not generated because no subscriptions need initialization." My current understanding that is that I should be able to take a snapshot from the publisher and apply it to the subscriber, thus syncing all the data.

Can't Set @replicate_ddl Parameter To 1 For Publications Enabled For Non-SQL Server Subscribers

Oct 17, 2007

Hi,
I am trying to replicate some tables from an Sql Server database to an Oracle database. So the publisher is SQL Server and the Subscriber is Oracle.

Unfortunately I realised that I can't set the replicate_ddl parameter to 1 for an Oracle Subscriber. This is the error I got:
"The property "replicate_ddl" cannot be modified for publications that are enabled for non-SQL Server subscriptions."

I looked on the Internet and I found that this parameter "@replicate_ddl" (used in the add_publication stored procedure) can't be set to 1 if the @enabled_for_het_sub parameter is set to 'true'.

So I thought if I just set the replicate_ddl parameter to 1 and leave the other parameter to false and then use the sp_changepublisher stored procedure to set the enabled_for_het_sub parameter to true that will work. But it didn't. I tried this in Enterprise Manager and although I had no error I realised that the replicate_ddl parameter was reset to false.

Is there any way I can replicate the ddl statements in Oracle automatically or I should to them manually?

Replication :: Replicate Multiple Databases (publications) To One Central Subscriber?

Sep 2, 2015

We need to replicate multiple databases (publications) to one central subscriber. The schema of those articles are identical in all publications and also the primary keys in publications do not have any overlap.

Is this possible?If yes is there any specific thing that I should consider for it's implementation? Should each publication has it's own dedicated distributor or all of them can share one distributor?
