Return Code Values
0 (success) or 1 (failure)
Remarks
sp_replflush is used in transactional replication.
Article definitions are stored in the cache for efficiency. sp_replflush is used by other replication stored procedures whenever an article definition is modified or dropped.
Only one client connection can have log reader access to a given database. If a client has log reader access to a database, executing sp_replflush causes the client to release its access. Other clients can then scan the transaction log using sp_replcmds or sp_replshowcmds.
Permissions
Only members of the sysadmin fixed server role or the db_owner fixed database role can execute sp_replflush.
