MergeDynamicSnapshotJobs Collection

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The MergeDynamicSnapshotJobs collection is a group of MergeDynamicSnapshotJob objects.

Remarks

With the MergeDynamicSnapshotJobs collection, you can:

  • Add a dynamic snapshot job to a merge publication.

To add a dynamic snapshot job to a merge publication

  1. Create a new MergeDynamicSnapshotJob object.

  2. Optionally set the Name property, specifying a name that is unique among all job names at the Distributor.

  3. Set the DynamicFilterHostName property to the name of a Subscriber.

  4. Set the DynamicFilterLogin property to the login ID of a Subscriber.

  5. Set the DynamicSnapshotLocation property to the path where the dynamic snapshot files are generated.

  6. Add the MergeDynamicSnapshotJob object to the MergeDynamicSnapshotJobs collection of a connected MergePublication object.

    Note

    If the Name property is not set, a default name is generated in the form of dyn_ + (job name of the regular snapshot job of the publication) + string GUID.

Note   The MergeDynamicSnapshotJobs collection is not compatible with Microsoft SQL Server version 7.0 or earlier.
