Note

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Do not use this feature in new development work, and modify applications that currently use this feature as soon as possible.

Only single file databases can be copied.

The CopySubscriptionDatabase method can be called by a member of the db_owner fixed database role of the database that is being copied.

The CopySubscriptionDatabase method is equivalent to the sp_copysubscription (Transact-SQL) stored procedure.
