Hi all,

I have merge replication running between two sql servers (each of which is on a cluster).

I have the following error message on the publisher side:

The Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) service could not be contacted. If you would like distributed transaction functionality, please start this service.

Can this have an impact on replication?
