Symptoms

The Availability Group (AG) setup and the transactional replication publisher database are joined as the AG database and Trace Flag (TF) 1448 is enabled in Microsoft SQL Server 2014, 2016 and 2017. After AG failover, the log reader agent may fail with the following error:

The process could not execute 'sp_repldone/sp_replcounters' on 'ServerName\ServerInstance'. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL20011). The specified LSN {0018cfa2:000086f8:0003} for repldone log scan is not a replicated commit record.
