detach

  • I want to detach a database.

    but on my server replication is running. That replication is linked with 4 other databases.

    How can i detach a database when replication is running.

    What are the conditions that i have to check before detaching a database

    Thanks,

    sandhya

  • Hi,

    You will need to unpublish the databases that are involved in replication.

    The following link should be of use to you.

    Let me know if I can of any further assistance.

    Cheers,

  • the book answer is you need to stop publication, but i have detached without doing so

    make sure you check the box to drop all connections and you might have to do it a few times. worked for me and replication came back when i attached again
