    Hi,

    Do I need to backup log if log shipping is implemented in that database ?

    Will the log backup taken by log shipping truncate the log file so that it won't keep on growing ?

    Or do I need to truncate it separately ?

    Thanks in advance.

    San.

    why do you want to take Tlog backup when it is updated in other server through log shipping.

    Even if you think that log backup will not break log shipping chain.

    Experts i need your advice on below,

    if take a TLOG backup and keep it on the log shipping share drive will the log shipping happens without break? or will it take only the backup created by logshipping job?
