Parameters

subscriber
A String value that specifies the Subscriber.

Remarks

The ResynchronizeSubscription method allows you to force convergence or synchronize the subscription database to a specific point in time, such as the last time there was a successful validation, or to a specified date. The snapshot is not reapplied when resynchronizing a subscription using this method.

The ReadLastValidationDateTimes method can be used to determine the date and time of the last successful validation of the subscription

Calling ResynchronizeSubscription is equivalent to executing sp_resyncmergesubscription.

The ResynchronizeSubscription method can only be called by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Publisher or by members of the db_owner fixed database role on the publication database.

The ResynchronizeSubscription method is available only for instances of Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005.

This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the Microsoft .NET Framework.
