// Set the Distributor properties.
distributor = new ReplicationServer(distributorConn);
// Set the business logic handler properties.

Remarks
The business logic handler must be registered at the Distributor (and at the Subscriber in the case of a pull subscription). However, the assembly that implements the business logic handler need only be installed on the server on which the Merge Agent runs.
The <xref:Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication.ReplicationServer.RegisterBusinessLogicHandler%2A> method can only be called by members of the sysadmin
fixed server role and members of the db_owner
fixed database role
Calling <xref:Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication.ReplicationServer.RegisterBusinessLogicHandler%2A> is equivalent to executing sp_registercustomresolver.
