Need For Distributor Server In Existing Replication Setup

Dec 4, 2004

We have a setup with one Publisher Server and 15 Subscribers with merge replication configured for all subscribers. The current Database size is approximately 3 GB expected to grow to 10 GB in next 1 year. We wanted to know what benefits would we incur if we add an additional seperate distributor server (hardware box). Also, what is the approx. size of a database where a seperate distributor server (hardware box) is recommended.

Thanks in advance

SQL 2012 :: Configure Transactional Replication On AAG Or FCI

Dec 15, 2014

We are planning to setup HA using either AAG or FC. ON my production environment (P), I have transnational replication configured for 2 of databases out of three. These data get replicated to another server( C1) hosted on cloud, with local distributor at P.

If I configure AAG/ FCI , how do I handle failover?I wanted to setup P as primary AAG with two replicas as S1 and S2. P->S1 will be synchronous while P->S2 will be asynchronous.Incase my P goes down how the replication will failover S1? Incase P and S1 goes down how do I failover to S2 with the replication.

Cannot Configure Server As A Distributor

Jun 7, 2000

Hi all,

I'm having a problem configuring one of my SQL servers
as a distributor. I've done it successfully on another
server, so I know that it's nothing procedural and there
must be an issue with the way the server is set up.
When I click 'finish' on the Configure Publication and
Distribution Wizard, I get the following error message:

Enterprise Manager could not configure 'ABEL' as the
distributor for 'ABEL'.

Error 20017: Cannot add the remote distributor at this time.
Make sure that the local server is configured as a Distribution
Publisher at the Distributor.


Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm fairly new
to SQL Server, so feel free to explain things in a
condescending manner. ;-)

Transactional Replication Setup To Replicate Views

Mar 20, 2007

Hello,

I setup the transactional replication to replicate remote database that has 50 tables.

Two of the tables with huge columns.

I splitted the columns by creating several views before running the initial snapshot.

Questions:

1. Can the database replication copy the views.?

2. Where the view will be stored at the subscriber database?

Thank you.

How To Configure Distributor Thread For Being Up While Replicated Database Is Down

May 1, 2006

Hi



I often deal with a problem when replicated database is down due to
electric outage or any other scheduled type of downtime. Primary
database is up but distribution agent is going down 'after 10 attempts
to connect to replicated database'. That's the problem I think because
not only distribution agent goes in undetermined state and I have to
restart sqlagent service, but I need to go through whole process of
snapshot and applaying it to replicated db. I would like it to
accumulate transactions in distribution database and once replicated db
is up - distribute them.

I wonder if anybody can tell me how to configure distribution thread so
it does not go down after 10 unsuccessfull attempts but stays for day
or two.



Thank you, Gene.

How To Move Transactional Distributor To New Platform?

I have to move our dedicated Sql 2000 transactional distributor to a new and faster machine. Great! Can someone give me or point me to a cookbook of the best way to do this? This has to be done quickly so I would like to script it and have it ready ahead of time. I am not a replication guru so I am a bit nervous . . . I have looked at the scripts output by EM, but I am sure there are some assumptions . .

Re: SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition

Error message: Setup failed to configure the server

I'm attempting to install SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition on a 2nd workstation in our area for development and practice with having this 2nd workstation as a "local" (test) SQL Server box. The install fails with the above mentioned message. (We have a database running in production on SQL Server 2000 and we need a place to simply copy the database and run tests on it)

The target PC is running WInXP Pro-SP3 and has IIS installed, along with Visual Studio 2005 & .Net framework, etc.

I downloaded it (via MSDN license) and accepted the defaults on the install.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Setting Up Replication On SQL Server 2000 Using Distributor Running On SQL Server 2005

Jul 6, 2006

Hi

I have a setup where I need to replicate the database which is actually subscribing from another database. The current setup is all in SQL Server 2000. I need to now setup a Distrbutor on a SQL server 2005 and publish the database using this distributor to another server on SQL server 2000.



Has anybody done this before. If yes what will I need to check. Can you please let me know :-



1) SQL Server 2000 which SP should be installed to support this enviroment.

2) SQL Server 2005 which SP should be installed to support this environment.

3) Any thing that I need to look out for.



Thanks for any inputs on this.

Combining Peer-to-Peer Transactional Replication With Standard Transactional Replication

Dec 1, 2006

Hello,

I'm interested in combining the Peer-to-Peer Transactional Replication and Standard Transactional Replication to provide a scale out solution of SQL Server 2005. The condition is as follows:

We may have 10 SQL Server 2005 (1 Publisher + 9 Subscriber) running transactional replication in the production environment and allow updates in subscribers. To offload the loading of the publisher, we plan to have 2 Publisher (PubNode1 and PubNode2) using Peer-to-Peer Transaction Replication and the rest 8 subscribers will be divided into 2 groups. The subscribers 1-4 (SubNode1, SubNode2, SubNode3, and SubNode4) will be set to be standard transactional replication subscribers of PubNode1, and the rest 4 subscribers (SubNode5, ..., SubNode8) will be set to be standard transactional replication subscribers of PubNode2.

Is it possible to setup above 2 Publisher + 8 Subscriber topology?
Also, could we set the 8 subscribers with updatable subscriptions to achieve each node is updatable?

We do not plan to set all the 10 nodes using Peer-to-Peer Transactional Replication as it is necessary to make sure n*(n-1)/2 (i.e. 45) peer-to-peer connections is reliable. It seems that the maintenance cost is high if the servers are not in a LAN and the topology is very high coupling. So we prefer to divide the 10 nodes into 2 groups and reduce the cost of each node to maintain the connections to all other sites.

That's the scenario.

Any feedback is welcome and appreciated.

Thanks,
Terence

SQL Server - Transactional Replication Questions

Sep 5, 2005

Our database has grown to the point where our current server is struggeling with the query load. One option is to get a 4 processor machine with 16GB of RAM, but I'm also looking at transactional replication as a solution. Currently we run dual Xeon with 4GB of ram (using the /3GB switch in the OS) We have SQL 2000 Enterprise.
The idea is to setup a secondary server with transactional replication pushed from the main server, so that some SELECT-only queries can be executed on the secondary server - thus taking load of the main one. We should be able to add PKs to the small number of tables that currently don't have them, and we should be able to run all updates / inserts on the main server.I'll setup a push-subscription for the entire DB (maybe excluding some log tables) and then for ceratain stored procedures I'll direct our applications to use the backup instead of the main server.
So: Is this a good idea? Is it easy to backup the server using transactional replication? How much extra overhead will this mean for the main server?

SQL Transactional Replication Distribution Server Struggling

Jun 5, 2006

We are attempting to rollout a name and address system to 10,000 users who will use an application connected to an MSDE database.

We are using transactional replication to distribute data updates to them. Clients are connecting via the On-Idle feature of Synchronization Manager to grab transactions.

Server spec:
Network card: 1GB
Processors: 2* Xeon 3.2Ghz
Server spec: DL380 2Gb memory
Concurrent connections set to: 600
Disc: RAID 10 with 6400 controller

We are not using hyper-threading.

So far we have rolled the system out to 3500 subscribers, 500 per day.

Each day a subsciber will receive at least 400 transactions and 5000 commands.

Latency is 6 seconds, delivery rate 180 commands per second at less busy times.
Latency is 14 seconds, delivery rate 127 commands a second at busy times.

I have seen it get as slow as 0.04 commands a seconds at busy times.

The server becomes incredibly slow when there are more than 50 concurrent connections.

We are seeing 100 CPU for most of the day as clients connect to the distributor at various times. Lunchtime is particularly busy when people go to lunch, leaving their machines idle. We see lots of "time-outs" and "unable to connect to distributor" messages on the replication monitor during peak times.

What can we do to improve the performance of the distribution server?

Are we being over-ambitious by selection SQL Replication for this scenario?

Thank you for any help!

Best wishes

Julian

Oracle To SQL Server Transactional Replication Error

Hi,



I'd appreciate any help i can get here. I'm working with an MS SQL Server 2005 SP2 db on a Windows 2003 OS. I set up replication from an Oracle 10g instance a few months ago, and everything was working until i installed SP2 for SQL Server.



I get the following error:

I can get snapshot replication to work just fine, but transactional replication throws up the error above.



Anyone with any ideas on how i can proceed?



Thanks in advance!

SQL Server 2008 :: Transactional Replication (Snapshot Agent)

Mar 19, 2015

Is there a way to force the snapshot to use a format file when bcp'ng the data to the subscriber?

The publisher and subscriber schemas are slightly different. Mainly added columns to the subscriber.

We have a post snapshot script that updates these additional columns on the subscriber.

I'd like to force the snapshot to use a format file, so it doesn't error when initially loading the data to the subscriber.

Is this possible?

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Transactional Replication And CDC On Subscriber

Also for a bonus answer, why are explicit index operations not permitted (I'm assuming this is even on the publisher?) From BOL:

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Setting Up Transactional Replication

Sep 10, 2015

I have created a publication on SQL 2014 SP1/CU1 it is going to a distribution server also a SQL 2014 database. The subscriber is also SQL 2014 SP1/CU1. When I set it up there are no errors. I fire up Replication MGR and it looks good after the snapshot and distribution agent have been started. Again, no errors. When I do a tracer token the information gets to the distributer in 1 - 4 seconds but it never gets to the subscriber, the tracer token monitoring screen only shows pending for distributor to subscriber.

I can upload the scripts used to create the publication and/or the subscription but am a little hesitant because of server names in the scripts.

Replication Distributor

Aug 3, 2005

I was wondering if you could set up multiple distributors for one database?For example:Server A needs to publish data to server B so I set up server A's distributor as server B. Later Server A needs to publish data to server C so I want to set up the distributor for this replication to use server C.I don't think this is possible as you need to set up the distributor for the entire DB when its created not for each individual replication job.Any help is appreciated.Nick
