Stop tables appearing in RemotesYour last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hello,

I have a bit of a problem. We've created some "archive" tables to store old HISTORY records, mainly to improve performance of the main views etc. I've unchecked the box "synchronise with remotes" in the DB Manager, but they're still being put into the remote databases when I cut them. How do I stop this data synching out to remotes?

I can't even edit the DTS job, because of the silly way 2005 uses a graphical editor - all the SLX tables turn into 2px-square icons.

Forgot to mention, I've tried removing the table from SLX's DB manager, but that seems to make no difference.

The "Creating Databases" dialog even says the following yet still creates the table.


[10/09/2009 14:52:15] Warning : The table "history_archive_db" exists in the database but not in RESYNCTABLEDEFS and will not be copied.

It's a bit devious, but how about moving the archive tables to another database and then creating views in the host database which access the archive tables ...?

Then just the views will sync out ... maybe (not tried it).

Interesting idea - might give that a go.

It looks like SLX is creating ALL tables when cutting the remote, and only using that checkbox in the designer to determine what to send to the clients after that. The only exception is the HISTORY table, which it limits by date. Annoying!

The alternative I suppose is to let SLX create a HUGE remote when cutting, but then attach/truncate/shrink/detach the remote before rolling it out.

Yeah, your alternative should work fine. All these methods feel like hacks though. The view idea, if it works, would take a bit more effort to set up, but would require less ongoing intervention ...
