Hi, I have a very tricky question. We setup DB replication between 2 sql instances. For example, database A on SQL instance A was replicated to database A_repl on SQL instance B. Now I setup log shipping for database A on SQL A to database A (standby/read-only mode ) on SQL C. The interesting thing is: I can see database A_repl (on SQL B) is shown under local publications item on SQL C. But when I click its property, it said the subscription does not exist (of course not because I did not setup any replication on SQL C). I guess some replication info (between SQL A and SQL B) were transferred to SQL C due to log shipping. I also can't drop SQL A on SQL C (because it's in replication) unless I change to read write. I hope I explained clearly. Could anybody help me to find the reason?
If the database without replication was setup log shipping, no issue at all.
Thanks
David
