logshipping problems

  • Hi there,

    I have 3 databases logshipping all at different times. However they fail intermittently

    Date7/14/2008 3:00:00 PM

    LogJob History (LSRestore_IBTKYPSP32A034_EnterpriseVaultDirectory2)

    Step ID1

    ServerIBTKYPSP32B034\HOSTED_P1

    Job NameLSRestore_IBTKYPSP32A034_EnterpriseVaultDirectory2

    Step NameLog shipping restore log job step.

    Duration00:00:06

    Sql Severity0

    Sql Message ID0

    Operator Emailed

    Operator Net sent

    Operator Paged

    Retries Attempted0

    Message

    Executed as user: AD\g-tky-sqlmail. The step failed.

    I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem, the other dbs are using the same user so I cant see why it fails and when I take off logshipping it works for a while and then fails again.

    Regards,

    Terry

  • I have seen log shipping restore jobs fail when the copy job is still running due to a large log file. A reindex job was the culprit in my case.

    You may try lowering your backup/restore interval to keep the logs smaller.

  • check the logshipping tables in msdb, should give you more of a clue as to why it failed

  • cheers guys I have sorted it out, i changed the restore times to 30 mins and it seems to be working again, fingers crossed it does not break again or i might have to think about db mirroring
