sp_addmergepartition (Transact-SQL)

Creates a dynamically filtered partition for a subscription that is filtered by the values of HOST_NAME or SUSER_SNAME at the Subscriber. This stored procedure is executed at the Publisher on the database that is being published, and is used to manually generate partitions.

Syntax

sp_addmergepartition [ @publication = ] 'publication'
        , [ @suser_sname = ] 'suser_sname'
        , [ @host_name = ] 'host_name'

Arguments

  • [ @publication= ] 'publication'
    Is the merge publication on which the partition is being created. publication is sysname, with no default. If suser_sname is specified, the value of hostname must be NULL.

  • [ @suser_sname= ] 'suser_sname'
    Is the value used when creating the partition for a subscription that is filtered by the value of the SUSER_SNAME function at the Subscriber. suser_sname is sysname, with no default.

  • [ @host_name= ] 'host_name'
    Is the value used when creating the partition for a subscription that is filtered by the value of the HOST_NAME function at the Subscriber. host_name is sysname, with no default.

Return Code Values

0 (success) or 1 (failure)

Remarks

sp_addmergepartition is used in merge replication.

Example

-- To avoid storing the login and password in the script file, the value 
-- is passed into SQLCMD as a scripting variable. For information about 
-- how to use scripting variables on the command line and in SQL Server
-- Management Studio, see the "Executing Replication Scripts" section in
-- the topic "Programming Replication Using System Stored Procedures".
