ExcludeReplication Property

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The ExcludeReplicationproperty controls integrity and FOREIGN KEY constraint enforcement when replicated data is inserted into the columns on which the constraint is defined.

Syntax

object.ExcludeReplication [=value]

Part

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list

  • value
    TRUE or FALSE

Data Type

Boolean

Modifiable

Read/write before object creation. Read-only if an existing object is referenced.

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetExcludeReplication(LPBOOL pRetVal);
HRESULT SetExcludeReplication(BOOL NewValue);

Remarks

If TRUE, the FOREIGN KEY or integrity constraint is ignored for data inserted by replication.

If FALSE, the FOREIGN KEY or integrity constraint is enforced for data inserted by replication.

Use the ExcludeReplication property to optimize replication data transfer. The property can be safely set if each source table for replicated data enforces the referenced constraint for all other means of adding data.
