Configuration Manager 2007 SQL Server site database replication can be configured to use transactional replication to allow management point and server locator point site systems to access site database information from a SQL Server replica of the site database.

Note
Configuration Manager 2007 does not support an automated or scripted method to configure replication of the site database.

The basic steps to configure SQL Server site database replication are:

  1. Plan for SQL Server site database replication.

  2. Perform pre-replication tasks to prepare SQL Server computers for site database replication.

  3. Configure the SQL Server hosting the site database to publish the site database for replication.

  4. Configure a subscription to the publication on a remote SQL Server that site systems configured to use a SQL Server site database replica will access.

  5. Perform post-SQL Server replication configuration tasks.

The procedures in this section can be used to enable or disable transactional SQL Server replication for the Configuration Manager 2007 site database.
