Distributor and Publisher Information Script

  • Artikel

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Managed Instance

This script uses system tables and replication stored procedures to answer questions commonly asked about objects at the Distributor and Publisher. The script can be used "as-is" and can also provide the basis for customized scripts. The script might require two modifications to run in your environment:

  • Change the line use AdventureWorks2022 to use the name of your publication database.

  • Remove the comments (--) from the line exec sp_helparticle @publication='<PublicationName>' and replace <PublicationName> with the name of a publication.
