Disaster recovery and creation of a new Sync History database -
Description
A scenario might arise where the existing Quick Connect or Active Roles Synchronization Service Synchronization History database (also known as the Execution database) cannot be used for some reason: this may be due to data consistency issues, exceptional data bloat, etc.
It might be necessary for the stability or usability of the solution to archive the existing Synchronization History database and start fresh with a new one. This can be done without reinstalling the product and with minimal downtime. -
