Moving Publisher database to 2008R2 but subscriber 2005 will remain same. How to reconfigure this?

We are planning to upgrade(not in place, moving to a new machine) the publisher(2005 EE) to 2008R2 EE but the subscriber(2005 EE) will be the same.
Replication Type: Transactional replication
Number of replicated databases: 1
Existing
SQL Server 2005 SP4 (Publisher & Distributer) with 8 publications
SQL Server 2005 SP4 (Subscriber)
New
SQL Server 2005 SP4 (Publisher & Distributer) this will be upgrading to SQL Server 2008R2 SP2
SQL Server 2005 SP4 (Subscriber) this will be same.
After moving the database to new SQL Server 2008R2, how to re-configure the replication with the existing 2005 subscriber?
There are hundreds of articles (objects) involving in the replication so it is not easy to reconfigure in GUI mode. So looking for plan to script the existing replication and plan to run those scripts on new server to re-configure is this possible?

The best option is to script and recreate.  There is no real way to backup a replicated database and restore it on a new server and expect the publication to be intact on the new distributor and for it to pick up where it left off and continue.
You can use the sync with backup option and log ship to the new server restore the final log ship with the keep replication switch and then rename the old server with the old publisher name. I have not tried this as part of an upgrade.
Another option is to script the publication, drop the subscriptions, run the script on the new publisher and then do no-sync subscriptions.
Using a script is the best way to do it, trying to do this via the gui is madness.

  • I took my iMac 2010 to a "Third Party" company to replace my hdd, they did, but now it will not boot. if i took this to the Apple store, how much would it cost to fix? if i buy my own SSD (£70) Thanks a LOT!

    Well, this "third party" is going to put my old hdd back and not charge me any money (as he did not fix it) but i think its better off taking it to an AASP because i have a feeling Apple store will charge way too much.
    The way I read that comment – you seem to suggest the Mac was broken before the third party replaced the disk - is that the case or was it working before the HD was replaced?
    Since the Mac is out of warranty you will have to pay for any repairs wherever you take it. Authorised Apple service centres will be able to get parts whereas any non certified technicians will have to use 'grey market' parts since Apple will not sell parts to the public. These may be reconditioned or not official parts - it's a risk to use them. Visit the Apple store & ask them - there is no point in lying about it being handled by a third party. An Apple tech may be able to tell when they open the case, depending on how meticulous your third party was. 
    If you are handy with a screwdriver & have tools and a lot of patience you could use a guide on iFixit.com, but there is no indication of why this Mac not booting up.
    It could be that the disk is not formatted correctly.
    Are you sure the tech copied an OS onto the disk? Did they install the OS for you or did they clone the old disk?
    Can you boot from a backup disk or from an install disk? Does the disk appear in Disk Utility when booted from another OS (either the installer or a backup).
    'Not booting' can mean so many things, what does booting do exactly? Grey screen, black screen, any noises or tones, any signs of life at all…?
    If you look at the iFixit guides you will see many fiddly connectors, if the tech failed to hook them all back up it could explain the failure, or perhaps you just have a disk that is 'dead on arrival' - sometimes that happens. A properly trained technician should be able to figure that one out.

  • Cancel iCloud plan but still having 3GB used. How to solve this?, Cancel iCloud plan but still having 3GB used. How to solve this?

    Want to cancel iCloud plan but I can't because I still have 3GB used. How to solve this guys ?

    Is the 3GB used a part of the 5BG you get for free? If so, you can delete the 3GB if you want to by going to:
    Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage> Under backups, click on the name of your iPhone then delete backup. Do the same thing on anything else that is showing as stored.
    Once you've done all of that you can delete the account if you want or you can skip all those steps and just delete the account.

  • I recently purchased a song and my entire song library was deleted after it downloaded. The photos and aps are still there, but no tunes. Anyone know how to fix this? I have songs loaded on the ipod that I don't want to loose and they are not in MY itunes

    I recently purchased a song from itunes and when the song downloaded, it deleted/removed my entire song library. Only leaving the one song.
    My photos and aps are still there, but no songs. Anyone ever encounter this and how do you fix it? I  don't want to loose my songs as some are not in MY itunes library. Help

    If the songs are still on your ipod, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes on your computer, connect and right click on it in the device list, then choose "transfer purchases" to copy all bought media and apps from your ipod to your computer.
    If the songs are not on your computer and got deleted from your ipod as well, you can't get them back, unless you have a backup of your iTunes library as part of your computer backup.

  • Voice control   blue screen appears while I play musice and either stops song, switches to another.  Hitting cancel or pressing home key at first worked but now it is not.  How to stop this?

    Ok.  So I can be doing just about anything while my ipod is playing and then this voice control screen appears wih the blue screen.  I can shut it down and then turn it on after a while but that may or may not stop the problem.  Even if I have it locked this happens. 
    Even when I hit the home key or slide cancel, this keeps happening.  It is very annoying. 
    How do I stop this?

    Have you tried the standard fixes:
    - Reset:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    If still a problem you likely have a hardware porblem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • HT201210 I am getting 3014 error code when i am trying to restore my ipad. I already followed this article but i keep getting the same error message. This has left my ipad unusable.Please help

    How can i restore my ipad when i lost its passcode. I am trying to restore it from DFU mode but getting error 3014code.

    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
    Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.
    MY suggestion would be to try to create a new user on your computer, make sure your fire wall is turned off, make sure your using the cable that came with the device, make sure theres nothing else plugged in, such as camera, printer, mouse and keyboard are fine, and make sure your anti virus is turned off

    Erin I am sorry you are facing difficulty downloading the Creative Cloud software.  It can be frustrating when you do not have access to high speed stable Internet.
    You can attempt to download the base installers and updates by following the directions listed at:
    Adobe CC 2014 Direct Download Links: Creative Cloud 2014 Release | ProDesignTools
    All Adobe CC 2014 Updates: The Direct Download Links for Windows | ProDesignTools
    You may want to attempt to utilize some form of download management as the main issue seems to be the stability of your connection.
    There is not currently a method to resume downloads within the Creative Cloud Desktop application.  There is download management included though it may not be enough to compensate for the current Internet connection.  If you are curious you can find additional details on how to resolve download errors at Error downloading Creative Cloud applications - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/error-downloading-cc-apps.html.
