Paresh Joshi writes "Hi,

I have setup a transactional replication on my Production Database and kept the authentication of the subscribers as Anonymous. Synchronization process works fine in most of the cases. But lately I am having a problems with few subscribers, whenever the synchronization process is terminated abnormally the second time the subscriber tries to sync it takes a lot of time and the process hangs up with the message Not Responding on the title bar. Even if it gets successful after about 8-9 hours, the transactions and commands that were synchronized are about 2 millions. I’m not sure how SQL is doing the roll-back or getting these transactions. Can somebody throw some light on the part how does the sync process work if the process was terminated abnormally in the previous attempt?


Regards,
Paresh Joshi"

This is what I experienced,

whenever a sync gets terminated, the entire batch gets rolled back, the rollback usually takes 2x or 3x the time for the commit

So make sure to drill down to the root cause for the interruption or you may need to schedule the sync during off peak hours instead of real time which actually beats the purpose if your intention is to relfect the changes as they are made on the publisher to the subscribers
