reinitialization vs. snapshot

  • Hi what is the difference (if any) between these 2 functions in Transactional Replication?

    1.Reinitialization of the subscriptions

    2. snapshot agent does?

  • I think you could say that Reinitialization is "flagging" the subscription to get the next snapshot, provided that a new snap shot is run, then the agent is run.  If the subscription is not reinitialized, you can run snapshots, but they won't get applied to the subscriber.
