Remarks

Microsoft SQL Server 2000 supported running the Distribution Agent or Merge Agent on another computer and then activating that agent remotely using Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM). Support has been discontinued for Distributors running Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and later; it has been deprecated for Distributors running earlier versions of SQL Server. Setting the AgentOffloadServer property on an instance of SQL Server 2005 will generate an exception on the server.

The AgentOffloadServer property can only be retrieved by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Publisher, by members of the db_owner fixed database role on the publication database, or by the user that created the subscription.

The AgentOffloadServer property can only be set by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Publisher or by members of the db_owner fixed database role on the publication database.
