Log shipping problems again - Need help fast.

  • Hi All,

    Need help fast

    I have setup log shipping 3 days. Below is the configuration.

    SQL Server 2008 R2

    Primary->Secondary Standby readonly with monitor setup on primary

    Everything was working fine until today in the morning at 8:30 am I started getting alerts to my email. When I checked the log shipping status report on both the primary and secondary servers I found the copy and restore jobs stopped working absolutely.

    The last copy and restores were done at 8:15 am and thats it no more are happening.

    While I am typing this, one by one the other databases that are setup for log shipping are also failing due to the same issues.

    Error message in Alert job:

    Date9/20/2011 8:30:00 AM

    Error message in application log of event viewer:

    Attached the snapshot of the jobs status in log shipping report too!

    Thanks in advance!

  • Figured it out. One of developers changed the time on the server to 2012 which caused the issue! These developers! :w00t:

  • Those darn clock skew errors :-D!

  • Never give admin rights to DEV team.
