Regenerates the article-specific triggers, stored procedures, and views that are used to track and apply data changes for merge replication. Execute this procedure in the following situations:

  • If an object required by replication is accidentally dropped.

  • If you apply an update, such as a hotfix, that requires modification to one or more replication objects. Execute the procedure on each node after applying the update.

Executing this stored procedure does not require reinitialization of subscriptions. This procedure is not required if you install a service pack or upgrade to a new version of SQL Server.
