Gets or sets the maximum retention period, in hours, before transactions are deleted from the distribution database.

Namespace:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication
Assembly:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Rmo (in Microsoft.SqlServer.Rmo.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Property MaxDistributionRetention As Integer
    Get
    Set
'Usage
Dim instance As DistributionDatabase
Dim value As Integer

value = instance.MaxDistributionRetention

instance.MaxDistributionRetention = value

public int MaxDistributionRetention { get; set; }

public:
property int MaxDistributionRetention {
    int get ();
    void set (int value);
}

member MaxDistributionRetention : int with get, set

function get MaxDistributionRetention () : int
function set MaxDistributionRetention (value : int)

Property Value

Type: System.Int32
An Int32 value.

Remarks

The MaxDistributionRetention property specifies the maximum retention period before transactions are deleted. Subscriptions that have not yet received replicated commands that are older than the maximum distribution retention period are marked as inactive.

The MaxDistributionRetention property can only be retrieved by members of the db_owner or replmonitor fixed database role on the distribution database, by users in the publication access list (PAL) of a publication using the distribution database, or by users with SELECT permission on the MSdistributiondbs system table in the distribution database.

The MaxDistributionRetention property can only be set by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Distributor.

Retrieving the MaxDistributionRetention property is equivalent to executing sp_helpdistributiondb.

Setting the MaxDistributionRetention property is equivalent to executing sp_adddistributiondb or sp_changedistributiondb.

The MaxDistributionRetention property is available with SQL Server 7.0, SQL Server 2000, and SQL Server 2005.

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