You can create subscriptions to function replication definitions for applied functions using create subscription and the no-materialization method or define subscription and the other commands for bulk materialization: activate subscription, validate subscription, and check subscription.
You do not need to create a subscription for a request function. The destination database is always the primary database; you create the function replication definition in the primary Replication Server.
If you specified searchable parameters in the function replication definition, you can subscribe to a function based on the value of its parameters.
You drop subscriptions to function replication definitions using drop subscription. They are dropped without purging the replicate data associated with the function. You do not need to specify the without purge option.
Refer to Chapter 3, “Replication Server Commands,” in the Replication Server Reference Manual, and related commands, for the full syntax for bulk materialization commands. Also see “Bulk materialization”.
