Log Shipping Monitor Our Of Sync SQL Server 2005
Oct 27, 2006
I have set up log shipping between two servers with a third serving as a monitoring server. Recently the monitoring for the eight databases that I am log shipping began to indicate that everything was failing. Upon further inventigation of the log_shipping_monitor_history_detail tables on the prinary and secondary everthing appears to working properly but I have been unable to resyncronize the monitoring. I have attempted to use the stored procedure sp_refresh_log_shipping_monitor to no avail, it does not appear to do anything with respect to the data in the dbo.log_shipping_primary_databases and log_shipping_monitor_primary tables on the primary server or the log_shipping_monitor_secondary and dbo.log_shipping_secondary_databases tables on the secondary. I have also manually updated the records in these tables in an attempt to syncronize but after the next sucessful backup, copy and restore this monitoring data is not updating. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I am doing wrong or how I might rectify this situation.

I have 4 sql 2000 servers. One is a the primary, one is a local stand-by, one a remote standby and one is a training server. WHen configuring which server should monitor log shipping I was torn between the local standby and the training. The training server which only has a few users if ever, might be used for some DTS tasks in the future for some B to B stuff. Based upon this I am leaning on the local standby to monitor. Anyone have an experience or input?
Thanks!
(No I can't buy any more servers)

I checked the server and found that LS restore job failing and Backup and copy jobs running fine without any issue. and also observed that Copy folder the trn file existing on secondary server. i try to restore trn file im getting the error. and observed that last log backup file that it restored at the secondary database on May2nd,2015.

I have tried to set up log shipping for one of our databases - firsttime. Using EM I was able to create the job and maintenance plansucessfully. I wasn't able to find any errors in any logs. In themonitor server, when I look at job history, everything is gettingcopied and loaded sucessfully, yet the STATUS in the log shippingmonitor states it is out of sync.How do I get this into sync? I have set the out of sync threshold to45 minutes. I have made changes in our production database and thosechanges are showing up in the standby database, so it all appears tobe working.Thanks.

I have set up a database with log shipping to the backup server. I have actually set it up multiple times because it continues to get out of sync, and I do not know another way to get it back in sync (despite much effort to learn how). I have not found much documentation in BOL, nor in the on-line areas that I can find. I have not been able to discover why it keeps getting out of sync.
If there is anyone who may shed some light on this, I would be very greatful.
Particulars (both servers):
Windows ADV Server 2003
SQL 2000 (Enterprise Ed.)
Servers on a work group (not domain)
There is a separate database on the same servers that continues to have successful log shipping.
Thank you very much (in advance).

Hello everyone:
I wanted to ask a question about log shipping going out of sync. We have a remote server in the UK that is our production server, and we are trying to set up log shipping with another server in the US. Our Log shipping monitor goes "out-of-sync" after about 8-10 hours. We changed the US server to have the same time as the server in the UK, but there still seems to be an out of syn error after 8 hours.
We are using Windows server 2000 and SQL server 2000.
SQL server will restore logs then after a few hours it stops restoring and goes out of sync. Was just wondering if someone knew the possibilities of why.
Thank you.

I have SQL Server 2005 log shipping setup with primary/secondary configuration. I can confirm from the logs that log shipping is working without issue, however, reports generated from the monitor server show this message:
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK__#log_shipping_mo__3ABBDC91'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.#log_shipping_monitor'. The statement has been terminated.
There is nothing special about the configuration. Any ideas?

The above mentioned script by Ron Craig was put on the SWYNK site on 22 February 2002. When all the SQL Server scripts were moved from SWYNK to Jupiter, this article and scripts were lost. I have contacted Jupiter and they admit that it has been lost. If anyone has downloaded this article(prior to the move from SWYNK), please can you forward it to me. If Ron Craig should read this, please can you forward your article to me and ask Jupiter to put it back.

At one of our client side a wired log shipping issues has come up.while monitoring those two server i noticed that although log-shipping report says both server are in sync, report displays information related to both backup and restore , it doesn't shows information related to copy that is when was last file copied and last file copy column is showed blank. Same is when i execute proc "sp_help_log_shipping_monitor" . I get same result ...
When i expand copy job history to analyse its what i found is although job has executed successfully , but in depth reading each steps says that no .trn file was copied .
My copy directory is at secondary server itself where .trn files are placed.And from this location itself files are begin restored.
SQL server and agent on both servers are run by same domain account ....

We have set-up log shipping in both our development and production environments. The difference between the two is that development is using SQL 2005 Developer Edition SP2 and production is using SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition SP2. As well, the production environment runs using 64-bit 3-node failover cluster set-up for the source, whereas the development source server environment is 32-bit and not clustered. Also, our development environment destination/monitor instance is located within the same geographic location mapped to the same domain controller. The production environment destination/monitor instance is located off-site, and although is part of the same domain, uses a different domain controller which is synched-up with the primary domain controller used for the source server and entire development environment. Other than that, both environments run using Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition SP1.
Originally, both environments were configured to use Monitor connections "By impersonating the proxy account of the job (usually the SQL Server Agent service account of the server instance where the job runs)". This presented no problems in the development environment, but in the production environment, this results in the following error whenever the source server tries to update the monitor instance with the backup alert status:
Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 11.
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYANONYMOUS LOGON'. [CLIENT: XXX.XX.XX.XX]
This also results in the log-ship alert job falsely reporting that backup jobs are "out-of-synch", since the source server cannot write log information to the log ship tables on the destination/monitor instance.
Now, according to BOL, when choosing to impersonate the proxy account, this is supposed to default to the SQL Server Agent Service account, which in our systems (both development and production), is a Windows domain account with full administrator priviledges and a SQL system adminstrator on both source and destination/monitor instances.
Upon trying to open a case with Microsoft originally when we were running on SQL 2005 SP1, and spending several hours ensuring there were no duplicate SPNs and linked servers were properly configured, they had come to the conclusion that this was the result of a known SP1 issue (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925843), and would be solved by applying SP2. We are now running SP2 + hotfix (9.0.3152), but are still receiving this error.
The only way I have currently of fixing this issue is by changing the Monitor connection from authenticating via proxy account to using a SQL Server login account which has system admin priviledges.
I have limited knowledge of how security is applied across different domain controllers within the same domain. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have:
A server computer running SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition.
A industrial computer running SQL Server 2005 Express Edition.
And now also a Psion WorkAboutPro with CE 5 that should run SQL Server Compact Edition.
The industrial computer syncs its data with the server, basically saying "this has happened".
Now I want the Psion to sync with the industrial computer, but this sync must two-way.
I have tried to find a guide or something that can tell me "do this to sync" but the information i have found is sketchy at best.
If someone could point me in the right direction of a guide or something else it would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Björn

We have our SQL Server 2005 hosted at a datacenter and have only SS Management Studio access (no term serv, no event log, etc.). Also, our hosting company has disabled the Database Mail feature. We have over 60 jobs running on a minute/hourly/daily basis that are critical for our business. It is super important for us to know if and when a job failed.
Given this scenario, how do you suggest we implement monitoring/notification of failed jobs?

For SQL Server 2000 we have a user login mapped to msdb with database role membership of db_datareader and public checked. This seems to allow the developers to view the Management Activity monitor. For SQL Server 2005 the same mapping is in place but the developers cannot view the Management Activity monitor. Developers are NOT granted the sysadmin role, and should not have that role.
What permissions need to be set for SQL Server 2005 to allow users to view the Management Activity monitor? They should not be allowed to take actions on the activities.

Hi,
We have development and user acceptance (UA) servers. When I start a job on the development server, on the management studio, Start Jobs window and Job activity windows indicate "Executing" until the end of the job and finish with "success" or "failure"
But on the UA server, second after I start a job, Start Jobs window comes up with "success" or failure" and Job activity monitor says "idle" but Job continues to log without any error message and updates the tables. So these two windows are not reliable at all. I have to add that I have only job operator rights on the UA server.
Does anybody know what the reason is ?
Thanks

I have installed SQL Server 2005 and setup a cluster and log shipping. I decided to perform a planned failover and realized that there are no sp_change_primary_role and sp_change_secondary_role stored procedures. I checked on both the SQL Server 2005 installations and could not find them.
My question is :
"Is it safe to get these stored procedures from a SQL Server 2000 database and run them on the SQL Server 2005 database ??"
"Has anyone come across such missing stored procedures in SQL Server 2005 and know the reason why it is so (so that I can avoid it in the future if it due to a faulty installation) ?"
Cheers

Hello,
I would like to know if anyone has a recommended method for having backups to tape while running log shipping. For example, is it possible to copy the transaction log backups used for log shipping to tape and apply them to a Full Database Restore from a 3rd Party Backup tool such as Veritas?
My goal is to be able to do a point-in-time restore from tape and still be able to use SQL Server 2005 Log Shipping.
Thanks,
Erik

Afternoon,
I have a few Log Shipped DBs that are working great.
Currently they are set to fire off every 15 minutes 24/7.
My question is this ... I need to get FULL backups of the source DBs in order to restore them on certain Dev boxes.
If I were to execute the full backup on one of these Log Shipped DBs ... how would it affect the log shipping process?
Is there a special method to accomplish this?
As a side note, what would be some concerns/issues if in being able to create the FULL backups and not interupt log shipping, I were to create the backup using a 3rd party tool like Quest LiteSpeed?
I sure wish we were on Enterprise, then I could create a mirror and then snapshot off it to create my backups BUT ... that is not the case as we stand today.
Thanks

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.

Hi.
I'm working on an application that will use SQL Server 2005 Everywhere Edition for single user installations (i.e. notebooks) and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition for network installations. The single user databases will synchronize with the network databases.
The databases will have to store a large number of documents of different kinds, most of them will be less than 200 KB in size. According to the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition documentation, I should avoid using the IMAGE data type and opt for VARBINARY(MAX) instead. The current version CTP of SQL Server 2005 Everywhere Edition does not support VARBINARY(MAX) (the maximum size is 8000 bytes).
Will the final version of SQL Server 2005 Everywhere Edition support VARBINARY(MAX)? Or should I use the IMAGE data type in both schemas or IMAGE in the SQL Server 2005 Everywhere Edition database and VARBINARY(MAX) in the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition database?
Do I have to consider anything special when the databases are synchronized via replication because of the large number of rows with binary fields?
Regards,
Gerrit

If I'm on a remote machine, meaning a computer not in the WSFC cluster, and I open SSMS 2014, point it to a SQL Instance, and open activity monitor:
1. I get all the panes and charts except % Processor Time.
2. Then, if I authenticate to the cluster's domain by mapping a drive with valid domain credentials, I'm free to put performance counters in the Perfmon - - - but SQL Activity Monitor shuts down with“The Activity Monitor is unable to execute queries against server SQL-V01INSTANCE1..Activity monitor for this instance will be placed into a paused state.Use the context menu in the overview pane to resume the activity monitor.
Additional information: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))(Mscorlib)”
3. Of course, the Activity monitor can't be resumed via the context menu. Removing counters and closing the perfmon do not work. I dropped the mapped drive and rebooted the machine. That brought back 95% of the information in the Activity monitor.
4. Further experimentation showed that any mapping of drive shares present on the SQL Server to the computer running SSMS cut off functionality of the 'overview' pane in the remote machine's SQL Activity monitor -- the monitor that had been trying to watch the server offering the shares.

Trying to install 2005 Dev edition in xp pro, sp2.
Performance Monitor Counter Check Failed Error.
Had to stop the install twice at the point it verified what components were to be included as
the docs were not going to be installed. Resolved the issue.
Now it won't pass the system config test because the registry is not the way it wants it.
I look up the messages and the only solution is to hack the registry and risk my system.
This is nuts.
Isn't there some way to restart cleanly without hacking registry keys ?
Help.
