How to troubleshoot replication errors in SQL Server?
Troubleshooting replication errors can be frustrating without a basic understanding of how transactional replication works. The first step in creating a publication is having the Snapshot Agent create the snapshot and save it to the snapshot folder. Next, the Distribution Agent applies the snapshot to the subscriber.
How does snapshot replication work in SQL Server?
Snapshot replication Applies a snapshot from the Publisher to the Subscriber, which distributes data exactly as it appears at a specific moment in time, and does not monitor for updates to the data. When synchronization occurs, the entire snapshot is generated and sent to Subscribers.
How are transactions marked for replication in SQL Server?
Transactions occur on objects that are replicated, and are marked “for replication” in the transaction log. The Log Reader Agent scans through the transaction log and looks for transactions that are marked “for replication.” These transactions are then saved to the distribution database.
What does bidirectional transactional replication mean in SQL?
