LogShipping Logins

  • Hi,

    How can I add logins to a Logshipping secondary database. It's in Standby / Read - Only mode. I'm running on SQL 2005 Standard Edition.

    Is this possible? I've seen some info on this but nothing definitive.

    Has anyone found a good document on how to do this?

    Thanks,

    Greg

  • Create new login and user in Source DB with readonly access to DB.

    Use SP_help_Revlogin SP on primary server and from the output

    copy your newly created login details, execute that on destination.

    so you get same login on destination without orphan user if it is sql login.

    DB user will get prapogated with next log restore on destination server.

    Provide user details of destination server only with login pw details.

    Other than that I think Read_Only DB is for the purpose of reading only and better keep it that way.

    Kindest Regards,
