Is Database shrinkage possible in Replication ?

  • Is Database shrinkage possible in Replication ?

  • Do you mean is it possible to shrink the database files using the DBCC SHRINKFILE or DBCC SHRINKDATABASE commands? Yes it is possible. In general shrinking databases is not a good idea, whether replicated or not. Do it only for exceptional reasons and don't do it regularly.

  • Thanks David,

    one more assist you have specified - [ Do it only for exceptional reasons ]

    Can you specify the exceptional reasons or if anybody has faced such situation.

    I need to know for my knowledge purpose.
