query to check time taken by snap shot replication to transfer data

  • Hi friends,

    Let us assume, I have created snapshot replication from Server A to Server B for transferring data at 5 AM. Is there a way to find how many mins it has taken to complete data transfer?

    Thanks in advance..

  • Can't you look at the Snapshot Agent job? There should be Duration column.

  • I don't believe this is possible other than watching the snapshot run via the GUI, you can however determine the total size of the snapshot. Then, based on your network speeds, make an educated guess?

  • Should be in the job history (under SQL Server Agent if you use Object Explorer).

    Or check here: msdb.dbo.sysjobhistory

    --Vadim R.
