SQL Server Replication and the growth of the subscriber log

Working with SQL Servers' transactional replication I am having a
problem with the subscribers log growing to the size of the full
database that I am replicating. Currently I have a 53 gig database
that I have setup as my publisher. My distributor is on another server
with the subscriber. I am also using the "sync with backup" DB option.
I have log jobs running every five minutes on the publisher and the
distributor.
My snapshot agent is setup with the following profile option:
BCPBatchSize = 100000, HistoryVerboser Level = 2, LoginTimeout = 15,
MaxBCPThreads = 30, QueryTimeout = 300.
My Distribution Agent has the following profile options: BCPBatchSize
= 100000, CommitBatchSize = 100, CommitBatchThre shold = 1000,
HistoryVerboseL evel = 1, KeepAliveMessag e Interval = 300, LoginTimeout
= 15, MaxBCPThreads = 30, MaxDeliveredTra nsactions = 0, QueryTimeout =
300, TransactionsPer History = 100

Lastly I have the recovery model for the subscriber database set to
Simple.

As the snapshot is delivered to the subscriber the log file grows to
the same size as the database. Is this normal? I would think that
since I am BCPing the data into the database that the log would stay
at a manageable size. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Thank you in advance for any suggestions submitted.

Greetings All, I was hoping that a replication sage might be able to answer a question for me. I want to have one subscriber subscribing to N publishers. I essentially have a company that has a main headquarters and three satellite offices. I want each of the satellite offices to push their data up to the master database. From what I have read it seems like this should not be a problem. Some questions that come to mind are: ...

I'm looking for a simple way of telling (inside a stored procedure) if I'm currently using MSDE or a full SQL server. Ideally, there is some pre-defined environment variable that won't cause me too much overhead. The reason I'm doing this is because my system "rolls over" databases when it reaches the 2Gb limit with MSDE, but obviously I want to avoid this overhead if the user installs onto a full SQL server instance. Thanks

If we are doing a 1-way replication from a SQL Server 2000 (Publisher) through a firewall to a SQL Server 2005 (Subscriber), do any ports need to be opened from the Subscriber back to the Publisher? That is, we have 1433, 1434 opened outgoing from the Publisher to Subscriber but for successful communications, do any ports have to be opened the other way? Sorry, I'm new to this. Thanks, Mike H.

We currently have SQL Server 2000 and have merge replication. We have the following process 1. Data is transfered to a laptop, data on the laptop is changed and the data on the server is 'locked' no changes can be made. 2. After a few days, the laptop is returned to the office. 3. A script is ran to delete the data on the publisher. Replication works, the subscriber side is updated with the change (no data in the tables).

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
