Arguments

[ @publisher = ] N'publisher'

The name of the Publisher. @publisher is sysname, with no default.

Note

Server name can be specified as <Hostname>,<PortNumber> for a default instance or <Hostname>\<InstanceName>,<PortNumber> for a named instance. Specify the port number for your connection when SQL Server is deployed on Linux or Windows with a custom port, and the browser service is disabled. The use of custom port numbers for remote distributor applies to SQL Server 2019 (15.x) and later versions.

[ @publisher_db = ] N'publisher_db'

The name of the Publisher database. @publisher_db is sysname, with a default of NULL. @publisher_db is ignored by Oracle Publishers.

[ @publication = ] N'publication'

The name of the publication. @publication is sysname, with no default.

[ @subscriber = ] N'subscriber'

The name of the Subscriber instance or the name of the AG listener if the subscriber database is in an availability group. @subscriber is sysname, with a default of NULL.

Note

This parameter is deprecated and is maintained for backward compatibility of scripts.

When running sp_addpullsubscription_agent for a subscriber that is part of an AG, set @subscriber to the AG listener name. If you run SQL Server 2016 (13.x) and earlier versions, or SQL Server 2017 (14.x) before CU 16, the stored procedure executes without returning an error, but the @subscriber parameter on the Replication Distribution Agent doesn't reference the AG listener name; the parameter is created with the subscriber server name on which the command is executed. To amend this issue, manually update the Distribution Agent job @subscriber parameter with the AG listener name value.

[ @subscriber_db = ] N'subscriber_db'

The name of the subscription database. @subscriber_db is sysname, with a default of NULL.

Note

This parameter is deprecated and is maintained for backward compatibility of scripts.

[ @subscriber_security_mode = ] subscriber_security_mode

The security mode to use when connecting to a Subscriber when synchronizing. @subscriber_security_mode is int, with a default of NULL.

  • 0 specifies SQL Server authentication
  • 1 specifies Windows authentication

Note

This parameter is deprecated and is maintained for backward compatibility of scripts. The Distribution Agent always connects to the local Subscriber using Windows Authentication. If a value other than NULL or 1 is specified for this parameter, a warning message is returned.

[ @subscriber_login = ] N'subscriber_login'

The Subscriber login to use when connecting to a Subscriber when synchronizing. @subscriber_login is sysname, with a default of NULL.

Note

This parameter is deprecated and is maintained for backward compatibility of scripts. If a value is specified for this parameter, a warning message is returned, but the value is ignored.

[ @subscriber_password = ] N'subscriber_password'

The Subscriber password. subscriber_password is required if subscriber_security_mode is set to 0. @subscriber_password is sysname, with a default of NULL. If a subscriber password is used, it's automatically encrypted.

Note

This parameter is deprecated and is maintained for backward compatibility of scripts. If a value is specified for this parameter, a warning message is returned, but the value is ignored.

[ @distributor = ] N'distributor'

The name of the Distributor. @distributor is sysname, with a default of the value specified by @publisher.

[ @distribution_db = ] N'distribution_db'

The name of the distribution database. @distribution_db is sysname, with a default of NULL.

[ @distributor_security_mode = ] distributor_security_mode

Note

Microsoft Entra ID was previously known as Azure Active Directory (Azure AD).

The security mode to use when connecting to a Distributor when synchronizing. @distributor_security_mode is int, with a default of 1. The following values define the security mode:

  • 0 specifies SQL Server authentication.
  • 1 specifies Windows authentication.
  • 2 specifies Microsoft Entra password authentication starting with SQL Server 2022 (16.x) CU 6.
  • 3 specifies Microsoft Entra integrated authentication starting with SQL Server 2022 (16.x) CU 6.
  • 4 specifies Microsoft Entra token authentication starting with SQL Server 2022 (16.x) CU 6.

Important

When possible, use Windows authentication.

[ @distributor_login = ] N'distributor_login'

The Distributor login to use when connecting to a Distributor when synchronizing. @distributor_login is sysname, with a default of NULL. @distributor_login is required if @distributor_security_mode is set to 0.

[ @distributor_password = ] N'distributor_password'

The Distributor password. distributor_password is required if distributor_security_mode is set to 0. @distributor_password is sysname, with a default of NULL.

Important

Do not use a blank password. Use a strong password. When possible, prompt users to enter security credentials at runtime. If you must store credentials in a script file, you must secure the file to prevent unauthorized access.

[ @optional_command_line = ] N'optional_command_line'

An optional command prompt supplied to the Distribution Agent. For example, -DefinitionFile C:\Distdef.txt or -CommitBatchSize 10. @optional_command_line is nvarchar(4000), with a default of an empty string.

Specifying a value of 64 causes the Distribution Agent to run in continuous mode. This corresponds to setting the -Continuous parameter for the agent. For more information, see Replication Distribution Agent.

[ @frequency_interval = ] frequency_interval

The value to apply to the frequency set by @frequency_type. @frequency_interval is int, with a default of 1.
