Hi Everyone,
I cannot restore the transaction logs after restoring the full backup.
It shows the transaction log is too early to apply. I have the following scheduled jobs to take backup files.
10:30 PM - Full Backup
11:00 PM - Transaction log
12:00 AM - Transaction log
Can't restore the 11:00 PM transaction log.
The database has mirrored database also.
Hope to hear from you SQL pro.
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like the full backups last LSN is after the 11pm transaction log backup.
Check msdb.dbo.backupset correlating the first & last LSN columns to get the restore order.
But in this case it will be 10:30 Full, 12:00 TXLog

What time did the full backup complete? What's the message you get when you try to restore?

The full backup completed at 11:00 PM
Error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The log in this backup set begins at LSN #, which is too recent to apply to the database. An earlier log backup that includes LSN # can be restored.
Thanks.

Ah, in that case there's an earlier log backup that needs to be applied first. Perhaps one that ran at 10:30?

We don't have 10:30 PM transaction log.
What we is hourly transaction log backup.
10:00 PM - Transaction Log
10:30 PM - Full Backup (every day)
11:00 PM - Transaction Log
12:00 AM - Transaction Log onwards

Then you need to restore the 10PM transaction log.
As the error said "The log in this backup set begins at LSN #, which is too recent to apply to the database.
An earlier log backup
that includes LSN #
can be restored
. "

Then you must be using an earlier full backup and not the current one from the latest 10:30 backup.
Check through the backupset table and correlate which log file it is wanting you to restore using the LSN columns and the LSN that the restore error message is giving you.

Yup.
A backup that starts at 10:30 and finishes at 11:30 may well need the tran log backup from 10:00 and the one from 11:00 (plus all later), but it could not need any from before that.
