Microsoft AD Authentication

Microsoft AD Authentication is currently not supported when configuring a Microsoft SQL Server database server in a Replication Model.

Change Data Capture (CDC) replication methods

For trigger-based and Change Data Capture (CDC) replication methods, the maximum number of unique tables that may be replicated in a single transaction is 200.

The following list describes the constraints or limitations of using MS SQL Server CDC:
  • A MS SQL Server database can not be replicated using multiple models.
  • Only available on the Enterprise or Developer editions of MS SQL Server 2016 SP1 Standard Edition and above.
  • Does not support bi-directional replication.
  • You cannot truncate tables that are being captured by CDC.
  • You cannot use CDC if you are using CDC for some other application on the same server. Transactional integrity will be limited to the database level.
  • Transaction username is unavailable.
  • Does not support replication requests that contain tables from more than one MS SQL Server database.

Trigger-based replication

For trigger-based replication, the maximum number of unique Connect CDC requests that may participate in a single transaction is 51.

Running a Copy request

You may receive an error like the following when running a Copy request:

ERROR:Error executing statement 'alter table <tablename> drop constraint

The generated index name has probably changed, for example, it has been regenerated overnight, and the last one from a Catalog Refresh will be out of date. Do the following to solve this error:

Refresh the table in Connect CDC Director.

  1. Recommit the model in Connect CDC Director.
  2. Do a Model Update in Connect CDC MonCon.
  3. Rerun the request in Connect CDC MonCon.

Fast load

Fast load is restricted to a single source server table feeding a single MS SQL Server load table. An index error occurs if multiple source server tables feed one target MS SQL Server load table.

MS SQL Server database returning a row count when it executes SQL statements

The proper functioning of Connect CDC is dependent on the MS SQL Server database returning a row count whenever it executes SQL statements. This is not the case if the instance connection property “no count” is checked. This is unchecked by default.

Database names containing a period

Connect CDC does not support a period as part of a database name for databases containing tables as either a source or a target in replication.
