    Hi,

    I want to understand the Logshipping reestablishment Scenerio After a Failover.Below Mentioned are the details of the Environment for the Better Understanding.

    Server A: Primary Server

    Server B: Secondary Server

    Logshipping established between A and B .

    Server A Crashed.I have restored all the Pending Logs to Secondary Server and got it into a Consistent State and Its in Use from last few days .

    Did you backup the tail of the log on the original primary and restore this?

    1.Can i just restore the Full Backup of Server B on Server A and change the Mode of B to no recovery(Standby/Readonly) and Reconfigure the LOGSHIPPING from A to B.

    Will that Work ??

    2.Do I need to restore the Full Backup on Server A and then take a backup from A to B restoring a no recovery(Standby/Readonly) and Reconfigure the LOGSHIPPING from A to B.

    What is your Opinion on the above two Doubts .Please Advise

    You shouldn't need to restore any full backups if you made the switch correctly!
