Replication Subscriber & Recovery Model

  • I have transactional replication setup on one database on a 2008R2 server.

    The subscriber is in FULL recovery mode, even though we don't need it to be.

    Im pretty sure I can change this to SIMPLE without any adverse effects but just wanted to check that here before I do.

    So:

    -Can I change a subscriber database to SIMPLE recovery mode, without affecting replication?

    Thanks!

  • Recovery model has no effect whatsoever on replication, that goes for publisher and subscriber alike.
