hey,

the delete old log backups on primary and secondary is set to 72 hours.. Is that what you mean? I don't remember any other thresholds..

thanks 🙂

EDIT...

think before you type really needs to be drilled into my head! used the log shipping SP and saw a few others that makes more sense..

backup_retention_period - How Long the Log backup is kept on the Primary Server (I picked 72 hours)

backup_threshold - 120 - Will trigger an alert if a log backup isnt performed within this time period? (I picked 1 hour 15 mins if ive set backups to 1 hour.. Would this effect things..

On Secondary I can see

restore threshold - set an alert if no restore is done within this time frame (for my 1 hour backups i set it to 75 mins again

file retention_period which i again set to 72 hours.

Another question this brings up (Keep questioning if im looking at this right!) Ive set the Log backups on the Primary to be every hour from 00:30

The Copy ive set to be 10 mins after this (just to make sure the file has been created)

The restore ive left as default which is 15 mins.. since i didnt know how long the copy would take and having it keep trying seems a safer bet.

Does that seem right or is it foolish!?

Thanks for the help (And patience!)
