Replication Agent objects in the Microsoft SQL Server primary database

NoteThis section describes the details of the Replication Agent objects for a Microsoft SQL Server database. For more general information, see the Replication Agent Administration Guide.

Replication Agent creates objects in the Microsoft SQL Server primary database to assist with replication tasks.

The Replication Agent objects are created by invoking the pdb_xlog command with the init keyword. When you invoke this command, Replication Agent generates a SQL script that contains the SQL statements for the objects created or modified in the primary database. This script is stored in the partinit.sql file in the RAX-15_2\inst_name\scripts\xlog directory. The objects must be created before any primary database objects can be marked for replication.

Note The generated scripts are for informational purposes only and cannot be run manually to initialize the primary database or Replication Agent.
