Replication viability

  • Hi

    I have a transactional replication set up on 2 SQL Servers

    2000 SP3 on Windows 2000 SP4. On of the servers is

    publisher but the other one is distributor and subscriber

    at the same time - it hosts the distribution and non-updatable pull subscription databases. What happens in this situation when

    I pull out the network cable at the publisher and plug it

    back in after a while? Will the replication continue to

    work or will I need to reinitalize the subscription?

    Many thanks,

    Osk

  • I am not sure, but I guess, when you remove the network cable of the Publisher, the transaction log backups will contiue to happen (provided your T-log backups destination is on the Publisher). However, the T-Log backups wont get transferred to the Distributor and wont be applied to Subscriber.

    Once, you plug-in the network cable, all processes will start again and work fine.
