Running scripts after snapshot replication

  • Hello

    I am trying to replicate a database that includes two tables with an identity column.  In order to get the transactional replication working, I have to edit the stored procedures sp_MSupd_table1 and sp_MSupd_table2 so that they don't try to set a value for the identity column during an update.

    The only way I can think of to do this is to tell the snapshot agent to run a script to create the procedures after the snapshot has been taken.  Because I have to create two stored procedures, I need two scripts.  How do I configure it to run more than one?

    Thanks

  • You should be able to package both scripts up in the post snapshot command.

    you can also deploy them through sp_addscriptexec

  • Hilary - thanks.  I think sp_addscriptexec would do it.  I've actually now created the SPs I want in the subscriber database and configured them not to be overwritten during the snapshot process.
