Brandi,
We have been using SQL replication for several years. While I am not a DBA here is what I can remember: * Tables created by Remedy in ARSYSTEM really does not declare C1 as a primary key (at least in SQL 2000). * I believe this is done manually by the DBA. * When a table is being replicated you cannot Alter the ARSystem table without dropping replication first. Moving a field does not constitute an Alter of the table. * Joe is correct in that ARADMIN must be the dbo of the replicated db. HTH, Roger A.

What method of replication did the dba use? Does the ARAdmin user that owns the ARSystem database have the same rights and privileges as the ARAdmin user on the original database? Typically on MS-SQL the ARAdmin user should be the dbo of the ARSystem database.

Our database engineer set up SQL replication for our production sql server to our backup sql server. The problem is that when he does the SQL replication set up the remedy system does not agree with it. We get errors when someone modifies a request and it pushes a value to a char field with an attached menu with the pattern = $MENU$. It says that the value we are sending does not meet $MENU$. We also get errors if we go to the admin tool and try to move a field.. Errors concerning the sql view does not exist. It seems that somehow the views are being changed. I know someone on the list had said that the replication adds columns to the views so the system is not recognizing the views correctly. I have seen some questions on arslist but did not know if anyone had a solution as of yet. Has anyone successfully set up SQL replication successfully?
