After calling the Reinitialize method, you must start synchronization to reinitialize the subscription. For more information, see How to: Reinitialize a Subscription (RMO Programming).
The Reinitialize method can only be called by members of sysadmin fixed server role at the Subscriber or by members of the db_owner fixed database role on the subscription database.
Calling Reinitialize is equivalent to executing sp_reinitmergepullsubscription.
