Transactions done twice during failover

  1. Transactions done twice during failover

    Hi experts,

    I'm running replication from SQL Server 2000 to Sybase. Whenever I do a
    failover from one node to the other I get duplicate rows. That means that
    certain transactions are done twice.

    What can I do to avoid that?

    Thanks a million,
    Avi



  2. Re: Transactions done twice during failover

    I suspect you need to put a pk on the Sybase tables to prevent this from
    happening. If it is happening on the log reader agent writing to the
    distribution database this is a known issue. When I encounter this I delete
    the offending rows from msrepl_transactions and msrepl_Commands and have the
    log reader send them again.

    You might also want to use the continue on data consistency error profile.
