Subscription materialization for logical primary database

This section describes subscription materialization issues for a logical primary database. It also describes what happens if you execute the switch active command for a logical primary database during subscription materialization.

During subscription materialization, data is selected from the active primary database into a materialization queue.

When you execute the switch active command, the primary Replication Server replicates RSSD information to notify replicate sites that the active database has been changed. When a replicate Replication Server with a materializing subscription receives this information, the materialization queue is dropped. A new queue is built by reselecting the subscription data from the new active primary database.

NoteThe Replication Agent for the RSSD of the primary Replication Server must be running for replicate Replication Servers to detect that the active database has been changed.
