I need some advice about the best way to setup log shipping in conjunction with full backups and other system maint. such as DBCC's. I'd like to know what others are doing.
What is your schedule, 24/7, other?
When do you take full backups of the databases? Do you restore these backups to the destination server then startup log shipping again?
I considered doing log ship from 7:00 - 19:00. Then do a full backup at 19:30 that is restored to the destination server. I understand that your schedule may vary due to app. requirements.
I found plenty of info. about the mechanics of setting up log ship but nothing from a broader perspective. If you know of an article that I can reference please pass that on as well.
I could not able to find Forums in regards to 'Log Shipping' thats why posting this question in here. Appriciate if someone can provide me answers depends on their experience.
Can we switch database recovery model when log shipping is turned on ?
We want to switch from Full Recovery to Bulk Logged Recovery to make sure Bulk Insert operations during the after hours load process will have some performance gain.
I am using the article, " Storing Binary Files Directly in the Database Using ASP.NET 2.0 By Scott Mitchell "

Can any say Is it possible to store a picture in sqlserver?? If it possible then Send me some code in C# to store picture file by browseing from my PC.Also which type of field i have to create to store Picture. plz help me,..
I'm looking for information that could tell me how to saving picture in a SQL database. The site is build on asp.net 2.0 and c#, and I'm using Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition. I would be thankful for some help.
I'v been looking for a sample that illustrate how to send an Image(jpeg/gif/bmp) using SSB. The initiating client should pick an image stored locally on a folder in that machine and send it over to the target broker instance using TCP. The target should verify the contents of the message and then insert the image in a table, which i assume should have a column of type varbinary(max).
I 'm sure I am missing something obvious, hopefully someone could point it out. After a failover log shipping, I want to fail back to my inital Primary server database; however, my database is marked as loading. How can I mark it as normal?
I did the failover as follow:
I did a failover log shipping from the 2 server Sv1 (Primary) and Sv2 (Secondary) by doing the following
1) Stop the primary database by using sp_change_primary_role (Sv1)
2) Change the 2nd server to primary server by running sp_change_secondary_role (Sv2)
3) Change the monitor role by running sp-change_monitor_role (Sv2)
4) Resolve the log ins - (Sv2)
5) Now I want to fail back - I copy the TRN files to Sv1 - use SQL Ent to restore the database at point in time. The task is done; however, the database is still mark as loading. I could not use sp_dboption.

I am new to SQL Server and I have got this problem and I am wondering if anyone could provide me with a solution, please.
I created a Product database table using Visual Basic 2005 Express and SQL Server 2005 Express. I have just added a new column [Picture] with IMAGE datatype to the database table, which of course, should store an image or picture of a product. I am writing to kindly ask you guys for help.
i) How do I store a picture or image for each record of this column [Picture] of database table? I have tried and all that I can see is < binary data > in the picture column, and when I start the VB 2005 Express form is a blank picture box!
ii) How do I get this image to display on Visual Basic 2005 Express form, so that when a product is selected the product image is displayed too? All text data appears but not the picture!
Okay. Simple request. I have a local report in my VS2005 project. I want to embed my company logo in the header. How do I do this?? When I put an image item on the page it wants me to put something in the value for this? I've tried sending through a dataset but SSRS can't load data set information into the header! Why is this so complicated? I don't want to embed a dynamic database image, just a static image that will be embedded in my program. Any help on this would be appreciated.
Sir, Is there any way to insert picture to image datatype in sql server 2000 without using front end. If so please let me know. Thanks in Advance,Arun.
I would like to create a table which can store a VLOB or BLOB.. which are pictures and images.. How do I insert them into the database and how do I select them into the data base for playing in a media player
I really do not have a background on this.. much.. I just know how to connect to a database and insert texts.. and updating and stuffs...
I want my users to be able to insert the logo when they create reports using report builder. Documentation tells that under Insert tab you can click on "Picture" and then browse to the location of the file and insert a picture. But I dont see "Picture" option under Insert menu. I only see 3 options "text box","Filter Description" and "Total Row Count".
I need to create a RO copy of a production DB owned by an outside company. We are connectd via a WAN link, but cannot use replication. They are proposing using an initial load via tape, and sending us a text file nightly with the days changes to the DB. We will then need to load that data using BCP, DTS or some other method. Does any one have any ideas on using log shipping instead of the text file. It would only be practical to get a fresh load of the entire DB once a quarter or once a month at most. It is a 40+ GB database and we are expecting 100 to 200 MB of logs per night. For business reasons, we are limited to some type of file transfer mechanism for the data transfer, and cannot really change their backup schedule which is nightly fullbackups and tlogs every 30 minutes.
I am using SQL 2k EP Editions with SP2 on Win 2k Advance servers. Since more than week or so I am trying to establish log shipping between two servers. But its not working.
I am using database maintainence plan wizard to set up log shipping. Every thing works fine as far as wizard is concern, it creats plan for log shipping. But my log shipping is not working. The plan to back up log on source database is working fine. I can see the job history and the log files in the backup folder. But I have found that the job on the standby server to copy log file on network folder is failing and so the job to restore log on stand by server. I get the following message
"sqlmaint.exe failed with error state....."
Little reaserch on the standby server found that sql server is using maintainence plan to copy and restore log files, but i do not see any database maintainence plans on standby server as well as I have checked that there is no plan id in sysjobs table on either server.
I have sa rights. The account used by sql service and sql agent have admin rights and they do have rights to access the network folder for both the servers. So there is no rights problem.
I have followed all steps published in white paper for setting up log shipping on microsoft web site.
I have searched microsoft KB but it is of no use for sqlmaint.exe.
This might end up being fairly lengthy...I'm in the midst of implementing log shipping as a "warm stand-by" solution at my company. All the components appear to be in place: I'm using cmd shell to copy the backup device file to a remote server and then execute a RESTORE stored procedure on the remote server. The copy and restore work just fine. The problem I'm having is with the transaction log dumps and restores. We normally dump transaction logs (and then truncate) every hour. With the log shipping being implemented, we're going to want to do separate log dumps every ten or fifteen minutes, copy that dump over to the remote server, and then apply that log to the database. Here's the question: for the log ship portion, I don't truncate the log. But after the "normal" log dump occurs, things get tossed out of whack. When you try to apply a log, I get the message "database has not been rolled forward enough....". Has anyone encountered this type of issue and if so, how did you work around it? I'm assuming it's a simple of issue of certain options you set on your dumps and scheduling.... I'd appreciate any help.... Thanks!!!
