I'm trying to use AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) to setup "ongoing replication" from an AWS RDS hosted SQL Server 2016 database to an EC2 hosted SQL Server 2016 database. When I create a DMS task to do this, I get an error:
2018-01-17T12:13:24 [SOURCE_CAPTURE ]E: RetCode: SQL_ERROR SqlState: 42000 NativeError: 21089 Message: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Only members of the sysadmin fixed server role can perform this operation. Line: 1 Column: -1 [1022502] (ar_odbc_stmt.c:4406)
According to the documentation, both users used to connect need to be sysadmins. However, it's not possible to do this with AWS RDS SQL Server databases but the documentation suggests that this is a supported scenario. How can I get this to work?
