This generally means applying it to the subscriber before you apply it to the publisher, and making sure that any columns added to a table are either NULLable or have defaults. Yes, I know, but this is a non issue in real life with dozens of databases per instance and a few hundred developers doing their work. So, logical replication online for me is more of an academic case study. In real life I need downtime. Cheers, Paul
