Merge replication - conflicts

  • I have a merge replication setup, and the replication upon completion on the specific agent of the subscriber gives message:

    Merge completed after processing 8 data change(s) (1 insert(s), 0 update(s), 7 delete(s), 78 conflict(s))

    While the replication is in process, i saw the messages

    The merge process is retrying a failed operation made to article 'Oil Export$Document Mgt Printout Log' - Reason: 'The merge process was unable to synchronize the row.'.

    The change for the row with article nickname 8056061 (Oil Export$Document Mgt Printout Log), rowguidcol {6EF18D46-F00F-DE11-BA45-00C09F3D165D} could not be applied at the destination. Further information about the failure reason can be found in the conflict logging tables.

    This 78 conflicts is included for every replication thats taking place as per the schedule. Can someone advice

    If its critical

    What needs to be done to get rid of this conflict.

  • Hi,

  • there will be modification on subscriber and publisher with different data. so thats why you face this issue:-

    Run

    SELECT * FROM SYSMERGEARTICLES

    there will be a column: conflict_table

    select * from conflict_table

    your conflict will be one of row in conflict table.

    more over

    go on publisher >>replication>>local publication>> your_publication

    then right click on your_publication and click on view conflicts

    a window will be shown with conflicts detail for all articles in this publication.

    resolve your conflicts.
