Scheduling the Snapshot Agent

  • I am having trouble with my snapshot replication in sql server 2000.  I want it to replicate twice a day and it tries to do so but says that there were no records to update.  Since I know there was I assume that the problem is that my snapshot agent is not running.  How can I schedule that as well?

    Thanks!

  • Hi,

    Is your distribution agent scheduled to run?

  • I am not sure-where do I schedule that?

  • Go to the Replcation Monitor and expand the agents node.

    Click on the Distribution Agent folder.

    In the left hand window you should see a list of your agents.

    Right click on the one you want and select Agent Properties. This will open the job that runs this agent. You can check to see if this has a schedule.

    This probably does not want to be too frequent...if it does then perhaps you are using the wrong type of replication.

    Regards..Graeme
