Log Shipping From 2005 In 2000 Compatibility Mode --&&> 2000 Can I Do This?

Dec 18, 2007

I am in the process of migrating from Sql Server 2000 to 2005. Part of my plan is to move some database's to 2005, but use the 2000 compatibility mode for the short term. My issue is this, our DR boxes are still on SQL Server 2000, would I still be able to use our log shipping processes? Or would I be better off in starting with migrating the DR boxes to 2005 first?


Thanks in advance.

SImple Log Shipping In SQL 2000

Feb 1, 2002

I am currently running a Standard Edition of SQL 2000 on a WIndows NT4.0 Platform with service pack 6a installed. I want to implement Simple Log Shipping on my Standby Server as a means of improving my ability to recover from a contingency.

The Setup is as follows:
1. Both the SQL Server Service and SQLAGENT Service on the Primary Server Start with a Domain Admin Account
2. Both the Primary and Standby Server have mixed authentication
3. The current security context of the User (Which happens to be a Domain Admin) is used for the Link Server Relationship.
4. The Directory on the Standby Server where the Transaction Log gets backed up to has permissions of "Everyone" - Full Control" as does the log file itself.

The error I am receiving is as follows:

Executed as user: xxxinvbsg. Backing up Northwind to
DISK=S5ad$yyyNorthwind_20020130_1540_LOG.BAK [SQLSTATE 01000] (Message 0)Processed 1 pages for database 'Northwind', file 'Northwind_log' on file 1.

(Error 3201). The step failed.

Any help on this will be appreciated.

Thanks

Log Shipping In Mssql 2000

Mar 25, 2004

Hi,

I am now trying to configure Log Shipping in my compeny but I have encountered some difficulties. The destination site and the source site are far from each other and the transaction logs are too big, this situation causes an huge overload on our private network (we use WAN which is complitly disconnected from the internet). Is there any way to compress the transacion logs with zip or rar and combine it in the log shipping mechanizem?

Is there another way for making this files smaller?

I would be greatful for any ideas in this matter.

Thanks in advance,

Log Shipping Between SQL 2005 And SQL 2000

Aug 15, 2006

We have an environment where 3 SQL 2000 servers exist; one production servers and two standby servers that receive logs via log shipping. Everything works fine and it is stable. My client wants to get a new 64 bit server and run SQL 2005 64 bit version for the production box. Can we still do log shipping with the two remaining SQL 2000 boxes or do they all have to be on the same version and bit version?



Thanks

SQL Server 2000 : Log Shipping, Backup Plan

Dec 8, 2006

Hey all-

I am working to establish a backup plan for SQL Server 2000. We are currently doing log shipping between servers.

A full backup once a week
transaction log backup every hour

We run a bulk deletion (delete * from table where date < ninetydays) which deletes 22,000 rows approximately. We are running in Full Recovery mode.

I wonder if there was anyway to improve my backup plan, preferably minimizing logging when the deletion takes place but still backup the data with log shipping.

Let me know if any of you have ideas. Thanks

Nate

Log Shipping - Switching Recovery Model In Log Shipping

May 13, 2007

Hi





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.

Is there any possibility of loosing data ?



Thanks

Log Shipping: How To Failback After A Failover Log Shipping?

Jun 8, 2006

Hi,

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 appreciate any suggestion.

Thanks in advance

Log Shipping From SQL Server 2000 To SQL Server 2005

Dec 22, 2005

I work for a small state government department.  We are about to install SQL Server 2005.

A national government department that runs on SQL Server 2000 are willing to give us a backup of their database (20 gig I think) and then log ship to us regulary.  Our aim is to have a copy of the database that we can query from and that is only a day or so out-of-date.

I'm having no luck.

1. I can backup the SQL Server 2000 database.

2. I can restore the SQL Server 2000 database onto the SQL Server 2005 box no worries.

2. BUT, if I attempt to restore the 2000 database with the option 'Leave the database in read-only mode ...' selected (so that I can then restore transaction logs and it's read-only), then I get an error message.  ""This backup cannot be restored using WITH STANDBY because a database upgrade is needed.  Reissue the RESTORE without WITH STANDBY.".  I'm doing all this using SQL Server Management Studio.

It appears we will have to use SQL Server 2000 rather than 2005 to get this working.

Q: Has anyone successfully done this from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005 please?  If so, how was it achieved please?

Thanks.

Log Shipping

Aug 1, 2000

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.

Log Shipping

Mar 27, 2002

Hi all,

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.

Any help is highly appreciated.

thanks in advance.

Log Shipping

Sep 6, 2000

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!!!

More Log Shipping

Jul 25, 2004

I have been successful in getting log shipping working but still have some nagging questions that I cannot find answers to.

1. I had a situation where the copy for one TranLog took much longer than the 15 minute interval I have it setup for. It seemed to get stuck on that copy. Is that how it is supposed to behave.

2. Related to the question above, weekly, I have jobs that reorganize, check integity, recalc statistics. Would these jobs create very large log files? If so, how do others deal with this?

3. Is there any documents available that discuss testing converting your secondary server/database to your primary and back again?

4. Is there a way to setup Email notification to report out-of-sync conditions?

Any other gotcha's that people have run into.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ken Nicholson

Hi all,

I am testing my log - shipping strategy. I have tried with northwind database and it was successfully created and is operating. However in order to test I have created a new Test Table in the primary database to see whether it is working. From now on database shows that it has been loading and I cannot see any tables it is grayed and it says loading. What would be the problem? When I checked the logs it has been copying to the secondary database and it doesn't show any error in the log-shipping monitor. It seem everything is cool accept this loading part. If some one help me I really appreciate it.

Thanks

We would like to use log shipping for a Near Real Time (5 min delay)reporting server. SQL 2000 requires exclusive use of the database when the logs are applied. This presents a problem since there may be a couple of hundred users on the NRT server. Even if they only make connections when running the reports there could be some contention issues. Has anybody used log shipping in this type of scenario?

Does anyone know why some databases in SQL 2K Enterprise are not available for log shipping? In other words when you select a database Log Shipping this option is not available (grayed out). Other DB's on the same server log ship without problem.

Any ideas?

I think Microsoft has an answer to this but their site is not working so I can't get to the Q270006 which supposed to discuss that. If you do a search in KB for "Log Shipping is disabled" you will see the WebCast link which references Q270006 but then if you click on the link to go to the Q link does not work and search Q270006 is not found in KB..

Hello,

to use Log Shipping solution, Entreprise Edition is required for both Primary and Secondry Server (you agree ?).

Do you have an idea about licence regarding the secondry Server (suppose that you have to switch 2 or 3 per year. The second server will be used 2 or three times per year).


In some plateform (xeon CPU), the logical number of CPU is 2 times the physical number (SQL Server See 2 CPUs. You have 1 physical CPU).
Do you have an idea about licence in this case ?

Thanks a lot ...

Log Shipping Help

Apr 8, 2008

Hi,
I have following question ( same was asked to me by my collegue)

I have Log shipping between two servers ( say Server A - Primary & Server B - Secondary).
One user is logged in to B Server and fired a long query on the same database / object. it is taking a very long time to execute.

Q : How this will impact the log shipping process ?
Ans : Log shipping will fail as the secondary db will show as " database is in use" for log shipping process.

Q : How to recover the log shipping process?
And : Notify the user to disconnect the session / or kill the user session. But i don't know how to recover the log shipping.




Thanks in advance.
