Logshipping

  • Hi All,

    We have customize the logshipping in our environment for two database. Below are the details

    Database: prod1

    Everyday Full backup at 00:10 then this backup shipped to ServerB and restored to

    prod1 secondary database. Then at 02:00 - 23:30 every 30 mins transaction log backup and restored to secondary database.

    Database: prod2

    Everyday Full backup at 00:20 then this backup shipped to ServerB and restored to

    prod2 secondary database. Then at 02:15 - 23:45 every 30 mins transaction log backup and restored to secondary database.

    We have seperate folders on secondary server to store the full backup and tlog backup. Like below

    \\ServerB\D$\DBRestore\17apr2009\DB1 -----Pointing to prod1

    \\ServerB\D$\DBRestore\17apr2009\DB2 -----Pointing to prod2

    Backups and restore are running fine till 12:00 PM but everyday somehow I am not able to figure out transaction log backup of Prod2 database gets copied to DB2 folder as well as DB1 folder after 12:00 PM. Then from this point of time both restore jobs are failing till last execution of the day. And this process repeating almost everyday. I've checked other jobs but not able to find any anomalies.

    Looking for advice as soon as possible.

    Thanks in advance.

    Regards,

    Austin

  • hie,

    can u tell me what the exact error message was..go restore job ->view history->and copy the error..

    1,check the sqlserver agent has proper permission

    2,shared folders for backup and restore

    3,secondary server is in restore mode or standby mode?

  • Is there another job or procedure active that takes additional FULL backups? These backups would brake the transaction log sequence.

    Query the [msdb]..[backup%] tables on the primary to get a list of all backups taken.
