Distribution Error

  • Hi,

    I've recently re-applied Snap and Tran Replication. I added two subscribers, one on the local machine and one on a cluster.

    The distribution for these is run through a job step.

    The cluster takes about 1 hour..that's ok

    The local subscriber takes hours when it should take about 15 mins...

    The Publication is dropping and re-creating articles on the subscribers...the cluster is a staging db so that is fine but the local subscriber is a working copy of our live environment and it is having it's indexes replaced with those on the publisher ...so I dropped and reapplied the correct indexes on the local subscriber...would that affect the replication ????

    I am about the set the article snapshot default to EMPTY table and not copy clustered indexes...that should solve the over-writing indexes am I correct???

    Any comments would be gratefully appreciated.

    Regards..Graeme

    I've run a trace on the distribution to the local server and it looks like the subscription has been reinitialized and the data is being pushed out on a transaction basis..using the MSInsert procedures rather than the traditional way....the net effect is the subscriber takes an age to update...so I have to kill the agent and manually push out a new snaphot which runs in about 15 mins..

    Does anyone have any thoughts on this ?

    Many thanks...Graeme
