Permissions

A user with CONTROL database permissions, db_owner database role membership, or sysadmin server role membership can execute this procedure.

Remarks

When the change feed is disabled with active table groups, all connections and schedulers are stopped immediately/forcefully without waiting for the current operations are completed. No new change feed table groups can be created for the database, and all the existing metadata describing the table groups will be deleted without waiting for the current operations to complete. Re-enabling change feed results in clean initializations of all table groups and reseeding of all the data.

You should only execute this stored procedure when unsupported actions or unexpected errors have occurred, that require the Mirroring feature to be disabled manually, and cannot be removed via the Synapse workspace or Fabric portal.
