This section describes the types of problems that can occur with Replication Server. These types roughly correspond to the different stages of development of the replication system. A replication system consists of Replication Server components (Replication Servers, Replication Agents, data servers, routes, connections) connected together such that data is copied reliably from source tables to destination tables.
Configuration problems – occur while you are setting up Replication Server such as adding Replication Servers, RepAgents, and data servers.
Subscription problems – occur while you are materializing or dematerializing subscriptions.
Replication problems – occur when updates to a primary database are being copied to a replicate database.
Manual recovery problems – occur when you are recovering a failed partition, truncated primary database log, primary database failure, or Replication Server System Database (RSSD).
