TWO REPLICATION QT'S...HELP NEEDED

Oct 20, 2007

You have two databases involved in transactional replication. The customer indicates that they wish to set the destination database up to be an €œarchive€? database, so no deletes should be replicated in the target. Can this be done?


A large partitioned table using a partition sheme is used in transactional replication. The developers indicate that they wish to make modifications to this table, adding a few extra columns. What must you do to complete these modifications?

Needed: Replication Advice

Nov 15, 1999

I could use some sound advice regarding replication. (Or a better avenue to take if available)

I have a production server and a *live* server.
90% of the updates are done on my production server. When needed I update the live server by completing overwriting everything with the data on the local machine. (This is because there has been numerous changes to the database design as well as the data but this should no longer be the case.)

Now updates are taking place on both servers meaning they should both be identical.

The problem I see is that something like a snapshot or merge replication could never be done. Since the same id's can be created on both machines I see no way that the software can tell them apart.

So is it best to update one server and then send the request to the other to update the same record (or insert/delete etc) or is it better to use something like DTS or transactional replication to accomplish the same task?

I dunno, kinda in the dark at present but any advice on the subject would be very helpful.

Thanks,

-John

SQL 2005 Replication Help Needed

Apr 12, 2007

Hey all

I am in the process of implementing transactional replication.

Site 1 : Sql server with 3 Databases

lets just call them DB1 to 3



Site2 : Sql server with 1database

DB1 replicated from site 1



Site 3: Sql server with 1 database

DB2 replicated from site 1



Site 4: Sqlserver with 1 database

DB 3 replicated from site 1



site 5: Sql server with 1 database

DB1 replicated from Site2



I need to know how to go about this

Site 1 will be Publisher/Distributor

Site 2 will be subscriber from site1, but site 2 needs to replicate the same DB down to site5, can site 2 be subscriber and distributer

Site 3 and 4 will subscribe to site 1

The various sites must also be able to update the DB back up to Site 1

The things i need info on is the security settings

The servers are stand alone servers and dont have active directory

Need info on how to configure the Various service accounts, must they be windows accounts.

Is there any content i can read up on to help me on this

Hope all this info helps

Any help would be Great

Thanx a lot

Merge Replication - One Way Data Flow - Help Needed...

Apr 24, 2007

Hi,

We have configured one-way merge replication in our topology. That is data flows from Subscriber to Publisher only. We have a publisher and a subscriber. There are 3 publications in this category and each publication has a subscription. We use SQL Server 2005 SP1 in both the servers. The retention period is the 14 days (default). After this period, I get the following error in the subscription in Replication Monitor. The Error message is



Error messages:

The Merge Agent failed after detecting that retention-based metadata cleanup has deleted metadata at the Publisher for changes not yet sent to the Subscriber. You must reinitialize the subscription (without upload). (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147199402)


I read the post http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspxPostID=372790&SiteID=1

which said that this error might be solved in the SP2. We have not yet applied SP2, but even after applying SP2, will this error be solved for One Way Merge Replication since the data from publisher will not go to the subscriber always in this type of topology??.



Kindly get back to us regarding this as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.

Help Needed Urgently! - SQL7 Replication Conflict Problem

Dec 18, 2001

Hi all,

i think i have serious problem. i have almost 20,000 rows with the following conflict on a table (generated by merge replication over a period of around 3 weeks) :

'The row was updated at 'SubscriberServer3.DatabaseA' but could not be updated 'at 'PublicationServer1.DatabaseA'. Metadata mismatch'

i have 20 remote subscribers & 1 publisher. The above message originates from practically everywhere.

Besides dropping(not practical at the moment) & recreating replication to get rid of them, what else can i do to resolve this problem?? Do i have to resolve this problem row by row?? i'm at my wit's end. Please help!!

Thanx in advance.

Merge-Replication - Transaction Log Is Growing Largely - Help Needed...

Apr 25, 2007

Hi,

We have configured the following in the Publisher server..



1) Merge Replication - Synchronisation to be running in the continuous mode.

2) Merge Replication - Synchronisation in Scheduled mode.



The issue that we are facing here is the transaction log file of the databases which are in replication are growing very largely. And we get this error message in the Subscriber :



Error messages:



The Merge Agent failed to retrieve article information for publication 'MCC_Pos_CashlessPub'. Increase the -QueryTimeOut parameter and restart the synchronization. When troubleshooting, use SQL Profiler or restart the agent with a higher value for -HistoryVerboseLevel and check the output log file for errors. Correct any database engine conditions that may be causing internal replication stored procedures to fail. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147201017)
Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL-2147201017

The transaction log for database 'tempdb' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases (Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 9002)
Get help: http://help/9002



In fact for the past two days there are no data movement or any changes to the table, still we are able to see the growth in the transaction log file.



As mentioned in the error description when checked the log_reuse_wait_desc column of the sys.databases table, it showed the value "LOG_BACKUP". So took database backup 3 times. and took transaction log backup 2 times from the subscriber server in which the error was thrown. Still the issue persists. There is no change in the transaction log size.



What is the reason behind the growth of LDF?? Is it because of Merge Replication Configured in the server??



Kindly check and let as know regarding this issue. We are facing lot of problems because of this issue. Thanks in advance.



Regards,

Swapna.B.

A Little Basic Help Needed (SQLServer 2005) Merge Replication

Jul 29, 2006

Hi all,

We are using SQL Server 2005, on Windows server 2003 R2.

We Have Two Database Servers say DBServer1 and DBServer2, Now I wants to do Replication between these to servers, such that

1. The Changes at DBServer1 should be reflected at DBServer2
2. The Changes at DBServer2 should be reflected at DBServer1
3. Changes includes Data changes and Schema Changes
4. After every Synchronization Both Databases should be Identical

I tried doing so, what i did was
I cofigured Distribution at DBServer1, also Publisher and Publication at DBServer1
and Made a Subscription at DBServer2.

What I successfully done is
If Publisher means DBServer1 do some changes then it gets updated at DBServer2.
But New Rows added at DBServer2 doesn't gets added at DBServer1

Thanks in Advance,

View Of All User Objects (Tables, Views) With Their Replication State NEEDED...

Jun 22, 2007

Hi!



There is a view in our replicated SQL-2000 database, that returns all user tables and views with replication state (0 if not included into publication, 1 if included):






Code Snippet

CREATE VIEW [dbo].[ViewREPL_PublishedObjects]

AS

SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT

CASE [xtype]

WHEN 'U' THEN 'Table'

WHEN 'V' THEN 'View'

ELSE NULL END AS [Object Type],

[name] AS [Object Name],

CASE WHEN [replinfo] = 0

THEN 0 ELSE 1

END AS [Replicated]

FROM [sysobjects]

WHERE

[xtype] in ('U', 'V')

AND [status] > 0

ORDER BY

(CASE [xtype]

WHEN 'U' THEN 1

WHEN 'V' THEN 2

ELSE 10

END),

[name]



Now we need to upgrade our database to SQL-2005, but [sysobjects] table have been changed, so neither Replicated state could be determined according on [replinfo] column value, nor User/System object according on [status].



So, I need a view with same functionality, that will work under SQL-2005 and 2008.



Please, help!

Replication Issues After A Database Restore - Unable To Drop Or Create Transactional Replication

Sep 13, 2007

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.

SQL Express Replication And Problems Accessing Data After Replication

Jul 28, 2006

Hi,

I have a VB.net app that access a SQL Express database. I have transactional repliaction set up on a SQL 2000 database (the publisher) and a pull subscription from the VB.net app. I use RMO in the VB app to connect to the publisher. My problem is I am getting some strange behaviour as follows

- if I run the app and invoke the pull subscription it works fine. If I then close my app and go back in, I can access my data without any problem

- If I run the app and try to access data in my SQL Express database it works fine. I can then close the app, reopen it and run the pull subscription it works fine

however.......

- if I run the app, invoke the pull subscription (which runs fine), and then try to access data in my local SQL Express database without firstly closing and reopening the app, I get a login error

- if I run the app, try to access data in my local SQL Express database (which works fine), and then try to run the pull subscription I get a "the process cannot acces the file as it is being used by another process" error. In this case I need to restart the SQL Express service to be able to run replication again.

I get exactly the same behaviour when I use the Windows Sync tool (with my app open at the same time) instead of my RMO code to replicate the data.

I am using standard ADO.Net 2 code to access my SQL Express data in the app and closing all connections etc

Any advice appreciated !

Thanks
Ronan

How Do We Add A New Column To A Merge Replication Article, But Specify It As Not For Replication?

Aug 30, 2007

Hi all,

I know that adding a column using ALTER TABLE to add a column automatically allows SQLSERVER 2005 to replicate the schema changes to the subscribers, however, I would like to add a new column to an existing article that is being used for merge replication, however, I don't want this column to be replicated. Re-initialising the subscriptions is not a option. Help would be appreciated.

I am using SQLSERVER 2005 (SP1).

Replication :: Transactional Replication Removal Sequence

Sep 2, 2015

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.

DB Replication Or Table Replication Via Triggers?

Apr 17, 2007

Hello everyone,I am involved in a scenario where there is a huge (SQL Server 2005)production database containing tables that are updated multiple timesper second. End-user reports need to be generated against the data inthis database, and so the powers-that-be came to the conclusion that areporting database is necessary in order to offload report processingfrom production; of course, this means that data will have to bereplicated to the reporting database. However, we do not need all ofthe data in the production database, and perhaps a filtering criteriacan be established where only certain rows are replicated over to thereporting database as they're inserted (and possibly updated/deleted).The current though process is that the programmers designing thequeries/reports will know exactly what data they need from productionand be able to modify the replication criteria as needed. For example,programmer A might write a report where the data he needs can beexpressed in a simple replication criteria for table T where column X= "WOOD" and column Y = "MAHOGANY". Programmer B might come along amonth later and write a report whose relies on the same table T wherecolumn X = "METAL" and column Z in (12, 24, 36). Programmer B willhave to modify Programmer A's replication criteria in such a way as toaccomodate both reports, in this case something like "Copy rows fromtable T where (col X = "WOOD" and col Y = "MAHOGANY") or (col X ="METAL" and col Z in (12, 24, 36))". The example I gave is reallytrivial of course but is sufficient to give you an idea of what thecurrent thought-process is.I assume that this is a requirement that many of you may haveencountered in the past and I am wondering what solutions you wereable to come up with. Personally, I believe that the above method isprone to error (in this case the use of triggers to specifyreplication criteria) and I'd much rather use replication services tocopy tables in their entirety. However, this does not seem to be anoption in my case due to the sheer size of certain tables. Is thereanything out there that performs replication based on complexprogrammer defined criteria? Are triggers a viable alternative? Anyalternative out-of-the-box solutions?Any feedback would be appreciated.Regards!Anthony

Merge Replication Set Off Transactional Replication

Oct 9, 2007

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...

SQL Help Needed.......

Mar 25, 2004

Access 97.................

I'm trying to construct the following SQL statement but am missing something somewhere.

I get a syntax error with the 1st FROM highlighted.

If i construct a query out of the bit that works and then construct a query on that query then i can get it to work no problem but how to mimic that in SQL ? I can't simply view the SQL of the queries because the query names replace the SQL statements.

I'm trying to SUM the 5 volumes that get returned by the TOP 5 SQL statement. The VotingUniverse_TotalVolumeByType query returns the TotalVolume which will enable me to divide the SUMmed 5 volumes by the TotalVolume to obtain a %age.



SELECT
Type,
Sum(Volume) AS Volume,
TotalVolume
FROM
>>>>>>>>>>this following bit works............
(SELECT TOP 5
VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Type,
VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Volume
FROM
VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType
WHERE
(((VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Volume)
In (SELECT TOP 5 VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Volume
FROM
VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType
ORDER BY Volume DESC)))
ORDER BY
VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Volume;)
>>>>>>>>>>>end of bit that works
INNER JOIN
VotingUniverse_TotalVolumeByType
ON
Type = VotingUniverse_TotalVolumeByType.Type
GROUP BY
Type,
TotalVolume;



hope this makes sense to someone anyway

thanks
