Constructors

MergePartition()

Creates a new instance of the MergePartition class.

Properties

CurrentSnapshotDateTime	Gets or sets the date and time when the data snapshot of the partition was generated.
DynamicFilterHostName	Gets or sets the value supplied to the HOST_NAME (Transact-SQL) function to generate the data snapshot, when the parameterized row filter is defined using this function.
DynamicFilterLogin	Gets or sets the value supplied to the SUSER_SNAME (Transact-SQL) function to generate the data snapshot, when the parameterized row filter is defined using this function.
DynamicSnapshotJobId	Gets or sets the Microsoft SQL Server Agent job ID, in hexadecimal format, which generates the filtered snapshot for the Subscriber.
DynamicSnapshotLocation	Gets or sets the operating system folder used to store the filtered snapshot generated for the partition.
PartitionId	Gets or sets the ID value that uniquely identifies the partition.
UserData	Gets or sets an object that allows you to attach custom data to this instance of MergePartition.
