Marks the merge pull subscription for reinitialization.

Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.Rmo (in microsoft.sqlserver.rmo.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub Reinitialize ( _
    uploadFirst As Boolean _
)

public void Reinitialize (
    bool uploadFirst
)

public:
void Reinitialize (
    bool uploadFirst
)

public void Reinitialize (
    boolean uploadFirst
)

public function Reinitialize (
    uploadFirst : boolean
)

Parameters

uploadFirst
A Boolean value that specifies whether to upload all changes from the Subscriber before reapplying the snapshot to reinitialize the subscription. If true, the changes are uploaded before applying the snapshot. If false, the changes are not uploaded.

Remarks

After calling the Reinitialize method, you must start synchronization to reinitialize the subscription. For more information, see How to: Reinitialize a Subscription (RMO Programming).

The Reinitialize method can only be called by members of sysadmin fixed server role at the Subscriber or by members of the db_owner fixed database role on the subscription database.

Calling Reinitialize is equivalent to executing sp_reinitmergepullsubscription.

Set the uploadFirst parameter to false when working with instance of Microsoft SQL Server 7.0; otherwise an exception is thrown.

The Reinitialize method is available with Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005.

This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the Microsoft .NET Framework.

Example

// Define server, publication, and database names.
String subscriberName = subscriberInstance;
String publisherName = publisherInstance;
String publicationName = "AdvWorksSalesOrdersMerge";
String publicationDbName = "AdventureWorks";
String subscriptionDbName = "AdventureWorksReplica";

// Create a connection to the Subscriber.
ServerConnection conn = new ServerConnection(subscriberName);

MergePullSubscription subscription;

try
{
    // Connect to the Subscriber.
    conn.Connect();

    // Define subscription properties.
    subscription = new MergePullSubscription();
    subscription.ConnectionContext = conn;
    subscription.DatabaseName = subscriptionDbName;
    subscription.PublisherName = publisherName;
    subscription.PublicationDBName = publicationDbName;
    subscription.PublicationName = publicationName;

    // If the pull subscription and the job exists, mark the subscription
    // for reinitialization after upload and start the agent job.
    if (subscription.LoadProperties() && subscription.AgentJobId != null)
    {
        subscription.Reinitialize(true);
        subscription.SynchronizeWithJob();
    }
    else
    {
        // Do something here if the subscription does not exist.
        throw new ApplicationException(String.Format(
            "A subscription to '{0}' does not exists on {1}",
            publicationName, subscriberName));
    }
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    // Do appropriate error handling here.
    throw new ApplicationException("The subscription could not be synchronized.", ex);
}
finally
{
    conn.Disconnect();
}
