How to: Add and Remove Publishers from Replication Monitor (Replication Monitor)

  • Artigo

The server from which you launch Replication Monitor is automatically added to the monitor if it is a Publisher. Additional Publishers can be added through the Add Publisher dialog box. After adding a Publisher, it is displayed in a group in the left pane of the monitor. The My Publishers group is included by default, but you can create new groups to manage one or more replication topologies. For information about starting Replication Monitor, see How to: Start Replication Monitor (Replication Monitor).

To add a SQL Server Publisher

The Windows account or SQL Server login specified must be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role or a member of the replmonitor fixed database role in the distribution database.

  4. Click Connect. If the Publisher uses a remote Distributor, you will be prompted to connect to the Distributor in the Connect to Server dialog box.
