ra_marker ‘activate subscription 309 0 with suspension’
This command places a marker object in the Primary Database transaction log that invokes the Replication Server activate subscription command.
When ra_marker is invoked, the Replication Agent executes a transaction in the Primary Database that is captured in the Primary Database transaction log. The replicated transaction is sent as a marker object to the primary Replication Server.
The ra_marker command returns an error message if the Replication Agent transaction log does not exist.
The ra_marker command is valid when the Replication Agent instance is in either Admin or Replicating state.
