How to: Enable Updating Subscriptions for Transactional Publications (Replication Transact-SQL Programming)

  • Artikkeli

When creating a transactional publication programmatically using replication stored procedures, you can enable either immediate or queued updating subscriptions.

ms146889.security(en-US,SQL.90).gifSecurity Note:
When possible, prompt users to enter security credentials at runtime. If you must store credentials in a script file, you must secure the file to prevent unauthorized access.

To create a publication that supports immediate updating subscriptions

  1. If necessary, create a Log Reader Agent job for the publication database.

    • If a Log Reader Agent job already exists for the publication database, proceed to step 2.
    • If you are unsure whether a Log Reader Agent job exists for a published database, execute sp_helplogreader_agent (Transact-SQL) at the Publisher on the publication database. If the result set is empty, a Log Reader Agent job must be created.
    • At the publisher, execute sp_addlogreader_agent (Transact-SQL). Specify the Microsoft Windows credentials under which the agent runs for @job_name and @password. If the agent will use SQL Server Authentication when connecting to the Publisher, you must also specify a value of 0 for @publisher_security_mode and the Microsoft SQL Server login information for @publisher_login and @publisher_password.

  2. Execute sp_addpublication (Transact-SQL), specifying a value of true for the parameter @allow_sync_tran.

  3. At the Publisher, execute sp_addpublication_snapshot (Transact-SQL). Specify the publication name used in step 2 for @publication and the Windows credentials under which the Snapshot Agent runs for @job_name and @password. If the agent will use SQL Server Authentication when connecting to the Publisher, you must also specify a value of 0 for @publisher_security_mode and the SQL Server login information for @publisher_login and @publisher_password. This creates a Snapshot Agent job for the publication.

  4. Add articles to the publication. For more information, see How to: Define an Article (Replication Transact-SQL Programming).

  5. At the Subscriber, create an updating subscription to this publication. For more information, see How to: Create an Updatable Subscription to a Transactional Publication (Replication Transact-SQL Programming).

To create a publication that supports queued updating subscriptions

  1. If necessary, create a Log Reader Agent job for the publication database.

    • If a Log Reader Agent job already exists for the publication database, proceed to step 2.
    • If you are unsure whether a Log Reader Agent job exists for a published database, execute sp_helplogreader_agent (Transact-SQL) at the Publisher on the publication database. If the result set is empty, then a Log Reader Agent job must be created.
    • At the publisher, execute sp_addlogreader_agent (Transact-SQL). Specify the Windows credentials under which the agent runs for @job_name and @password. If the agent will use SQL Server Authentication when connecting to the Publisher, you must also specify a value of 0 for @publisher_security_mode and the SQL Server login information for @publisher_login and @publisher_password.

  2. If necessary, create a Queue Reader Agent job for the Distributor.

    • If a Queue Reader Agent job already exists for the distribution database, proceed to step 3.
    • If you are unsure whether a Queue Reader Agent job exists for the distribution database, execute sp_helpqreader_agent (Transact-SQL) at the Distributor on the distribution database. If the result set is empty, then a Queue Reader Agent job must be created.
    • At the Distributor, execute sp_addqreader_agent (Transact-SQL). Specify the Windows credentials under which the agent runs for @job_name and @password. These credentials are used when the Queue Reader Agent connects to the Publisher and Subscriber. For more information, see Replication Agent Security Model.

  3. Execute sp_addpublication (Transact-SQL), specifying a value of true for the parameter @allow_queued_tran and a value of pub wins, sub reinit, or sub wins for @conflict_policy.

  4. At the Publisher, execute sp_addpublication_snapshot (Transact-SQL). Specify the publication name used in step 3 for @publication and the Windows credentials under which the Snapshot Agent runs for @snapshot_job_name and @password. If the agent will use SQL Server Authentication when connecting to the Publisher, you must also specify a value of 0 for @publisher_security_mode and the SQL Server login information for @publisher_login and @publisher_password. This creates a Snapshot Agent job for the publication.

  5. Add articles to the publication. For more information, see How to: Define an Article (Replication Transact-SQL Programming).

  6. At the Subscriber, create an updating subscription to this publication. For more information, see How to: Create an Updatable Subscription to a Transactional Publication (Replication Transact-SQL Programming).

To change the conflict policy for a publication that allows queued updating subscriptions

  1. At the Publisher on the publication database, execute sp_changepublication (Transact-SQL). Specify a value of conflict_policy for @property and the desired conflict policy mode of pub wins, sub reinit, or sub wins for @value.

Example

This example creates a publication that supported both immediate and queued updating pull subscriptions.

-- To avoid storing the login and password in the script file, the values 
-- are passed into SQLCMD as scripting variables. For information about 
-- how to use scripting variables on the command line and in SQL Server
