restoring replicated database

Hi,
I've restored a merge replicated database (publisher) on a new server
without replication.
Now i observe that there are some default replication procedures named
*_pal in my restored database. What is the way of deleting these
replication procedures. What will be the impact of the same.
Regds,
amit
Amit,
these procedures will need cleaning up by hand. sp_removedbreplication will
remove many system objects but these procs sometimes remain. You can
hand-craft a script to delete them (using information_schema.routines) or
just do it manually.

|||Paul thanks for you reply. We have configured this restored database
for replication and it has created new *pal. procedures. Is it ok if we
delete the earlier *pal procedure now?
|||Yes

|||thanks, but can you just let me know if there would be any impact if i
keep the old procedures instead of deleting them as i would not like to
change the system configuration if there is not impact.
|||If you mean problems caused by name conflicts and the like, I think the
complexity of the name ensures this isn't the case. I have seen systems that
have accumulated orphaned procs like this over several years and the DBAs
didn't even notice they were there.
