  1. Use the New Location Command to add the location for the new Satellite.

  2. Click Tools > Duplicate Model for Workshare Command. The command generates scripts that you run to complete this procedure. The scripts are located in the AddSatellite<LocationName>_<ModelName> subfolder in the local temp folder. You can click Start > Run, and type %temp% in the Run dialog to locate the local temp folder.

  3. Back up the model.

  4. Transfer the backup to the new Satellite location, and restore the backup.

    Run the ToRunPostRestore_1<LocationName>.bat file. To check for errors at a later point, you can redirect the output to a log file. For example: ToRunPostRestore_NewLocation.bat > out.log, which would output to a file called out.log.

  5. Set up the appropriate subscriptions between the Host machine and the new Satellite following the instructions in one of the following topics:

    Set up one-way subscriptions for SQL Server - Make sure you specify to Initialize the subscription as you go through the New Subscription Wizard.

    Set up two-way replication between SQL Server models - For the Model database, on the Peer-to-Peer Topology Wizard > New Peer Initialization page, select the second option for a restored backup of an original publication database.

You can add a Satellite without shutting down all the activities at the other locations. However, make sure the correct options are selected in the SQL Server wizards. Refer to your SQL Server documentation for more information on the New Subscription Wizard and the Peer-to-Peer Topology Wizard.
