Requirements for the subscription database

Because the subscription database must be restored separately from the system databases (master,
model, and msdb), it must be allocated to a different volume from the system databases.

Example

The example uses the following database names:

Publication database:

PubUserDB1

Subscription database:

SubUserDB1

Distribution database:

distribution

Back up the databases

Back up the publication database
Additional explanation

When the publication database is backed up, the distribution database must be backed up
at the same time.

On the publisher/distributor server, execute the

drmsqlbackup

command with the publication

database and the distribution database specified in the

-target

option or

-f

option.
