sp_adjustpublisheridentityrange (Transact-SQL)
Adjusts the identity range on a publication and reallocates new ranges based on the threshold value on the publication. This stored procedure is executed at the Publisher on the publication database.
sp_adjustpublisheridentityrange is used in all types of replication.
For a publication which has the auto identity range enabled, the Distribution Agent or Merge Agent is responsible for automatically adjusting the identity range in a publication based on its threshold value. However, if for some reason the Distribution Agent or Merge Agent has not been run for a period of time, and identity range resource have been consumed heavily to the point of threshold, users can call sp_adjustpublisheridentityrange to allocate a new range of values for a Publisher.
When executing sp_adjustpublisheridentityrange, either publication or table_name must be specified. If both or neither are specified an error is returned.
