MSDE Replication Problem

  • Hello,

    I am using MSDE 2000 for replication of my Data. I have one publisher and two subscribers. but i need t filter rows for publications. Problem is that for filtering, i need host_name and in push replication host_name is name of system in which Agents are running but in MSDE all agents are running in publisher system ( distributor System). so everytime for any publication i get only id of server.

    i am facing same problem in pull replication also.

    Regards,

  • So you are saying that the suscriber are in the server too ?, can you explain a litte more about your suscriber and publisher. How can you have the Agent for a suscriber in the publisher ?

  • I think I understand your problem. You are saying that because the push agents are running the publisher (i.e. you have a two tier topology) the host name that the agent uses is actually the host name of the publisher/distributor. Correct?

    In that case, you need to override the hostname value in the "Run agent" step of the job by using the "-Hostname" parameter. See the Books Online for the relevant agent (transactional, merge, snapshot) for more information or feel free to ask more questions.
