Remarks

sp_MSchange_logreader_agent_properties is used in transactional replication.

You must specify all parameters when executing sp_MSchange_logreader_agent_properties. Execute sp_helplogreader_agent to return the current properties of the Log Reader Agent job.

After changing an agent login or password, you must stop and restart the agent before the change takes effect.

You can use sp_changelogreader_agent on the Publisher to change properties of the Log Reader Agent.

Permissions

Only members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Distributor can execute sp_MSchange_logreader_agent_properties.
