Monitoring Replication
After replication is up and running, it is important for you to monitor it and see how things are running. You can do this in several ways, including using SQL statements, SQL Server Management Studio, and Windows Performance Monitor. You are interested in the agent’s successes and failures, the speed at which replication is done, and the synchronization state of tables involved in replication. Other issues to watch for are the sizes of the distribution database, growth of the subscriber databases, and available space on the distribution server’s snapshot working directory.
