Log Shipping - Switching Recovery Model In Log Shipping
May 13, 2007Hi
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.

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 ?

Can I Configure A Separate Zip Job As Part Of Log Shipping
Feb 6, 2008
Hi
We are planning to setup log shipping model being setup between two sqlserver 2005 enterprise edition.
Our transaction log backup sizes are not consistent through out the day.The following is the scenario.
T1 at 8.00 -- 315MB
T2 at 8.30 -- 152MB
T3 at 9.00 -- 2.5GB
T4 at 10.00 -- 500MB
The bandwidth available is 25MB/minute. We are taking the backups of Tlogs at 30mins interval.Now at 'T3' log transfer we want to zip the file on the primary server,copy the file over the WAN and unzip it standby server.
Now i wanted to know whether to perform this kind of action(Zip,copy,unzip), can i create a separate job on primary ?? which will put the unzipped file on standby and allow the log shipping job to restore the log file (T3)
Also i wish to carry my T3,T4 etc backup -- copy-- restores through my Log shipping activity.
I cannot take 15mins backup on primary server to reduce the transaction log backup size.Thts another constraint i have.
Also tell me how to zip and unzip thru command line if u hve any link.
Please advice me
thnks for the help in advance

Can't Configure Log Shipping On A Workgroup Network
Apr 10, 2007I have a WORKGROUP network with 2 SQL Server 2005 servers. I want to configure for log shipping.
When I try and set up the 'Secondary Database Settings', and try and run the process, it gets an error saying it cannot access the backup file (the secondary cannot access the backup file on the primary). The file is there. It is shared. I have created local accounts on both machines called 'SyncAccount', and have given full control over the shared directory (on the primary) and local directory on the secondary. I have chaged the SQL Agent to use the local account.

SQL 2012 :: Local Backup Strategy On Primary With Transaction Log Shipping Enabled To Secondary DR Site
Oct 2, 2014I have a scenario where a customer is going to be using Log Shipping to the DR site; however, we need to maintain the normal backup strategy on the current system. (i.e. Nightly Full, Every 6 Hour Differential and Hourly Transaction Log backup)I know how to setup Transaction Log Shipping and Fail-over to DR and backup but now the local backup strategy is going to be an issue. I use the [URL] .... maintenance solution currently.
Is it even possible to do regular backups locally keeping data integrity for your backup strategy with Transaction Log Shipping enabled?

Recovery :: Log Shipping Between Multiple Domains
Apr 30, 2015I'm allowed to do Log Shipping from x.contoso.com to y.contoso.com, however there is a requirement to have the same data made available to servers residing on z.contoso.com.
Connectivity between x.contoso.com and z.contoso.com is not permitted, so configuring log shipping with multiple targets is not possible.y.contoso.com and z.contoso.com can talk to each other, so what is the most efficient way to move data from y to z.

View 2 Replies View RelatedRecovery :: Cross Domain Log Shipping
May 13, 2015Lets say I have a single instance SQL Server on a 2 node cluster with node names Server X and Server Y. These are part of Domain A.
SQL Agent Account runs under service account - DomainASQLAct.
Now I have Server Z which is a standalone SQL Instance on Domain B and there is no trust between domain A and B, not even one way trust.
Even though I dont have trust, I need to configure log shipping for the SQL Instance which is clustered under Domain A to a standalone box in Domain B.
Microsoft recommends Local Account(SQL Agent) to be used for Cross Domain Log Shipping. Also when there is no trust, MSFT recommends to use the same login name and password, however as my setup includes a cluster and cluster cannot have local account I'm not sure what will be the best strategy to follow here.
Log Shipping Restore && Recovery Test
Sep 20, 2007I am trying to imitate a DR situation where the primary db is down and I need to recover the secondary db on another server. They are a log shipping pair and so to imitate a DR, I remove the log shipping in the primary server maintenance plan. Then I go to the secondary server and disable the log shipping jobs there and attempt to do the following
RESTORE DATABASE database_name WITH RECOVERY
but I can't get exclusive use because the database is in use. But I don't see any other users... am I wrong in thinking that the log shipping was completely deleted? Anything I can do to force exclusive access?

View 20 Replies View RelatedRecovery :: Point New Log Shipping Files To Different Drive
Jun 9, 2015I have two databases on a Production Server that I want to Log Ship to a Test Server. According to the sys.master files the physical File Location is on an E drive. Early attempts at Log Shipping these two files error'd out due to space issues on the E drive (one Log Shipped and then one err'd out). I was subsequently informed from the server group that they would prefer that I Log Ship these two database files over to the M Drive where more space is available. In fact, they modified the Server Properties / Database Settings / Database Default Locations (for Data and Log) to the larger M drive (I'm not really sure why they just don't increase the E drive space but there is proabably a good reason).
Okay, so now my problems have been solved. Easy enough. Now I deleted the successful Log Shipped database and started from scratch. However, as before, one db restored and one failed (due to space issues). Apparently, both db are pointing towards the E drive. How is that possible?
So here I am with one successful database and the normal sys databases pointing to the E drive. What is the best way of approaching this move to the larger and preferred M drive?
Recovery :: Log Shipping Transaction Log Backups Not Being Deleted On Primary
Oct 12, 2015I've got log shipping set up, and everything seems to be working fine, but the log files are not being deleted from the primary server despite configuring log shipping to retain them for 3 days. I see no errors concerning the log shipping, but did not configure a monitor. What process is responsible for deleting the older log backups, and how can I look for errors. I could simply set up a jog to delete the older files, but that will only mask the issue.
View 3 Replies View RelatedRecovery :: Log Shipping - Copying Older TRN Logs - Correct Or Not?
May 11, 2015Setup log shipping from an Australian SQL2008R2 server to a UK SQL2012 server. With the time involved to copy the large backup file across a WAN link, we end up with around 2 days of log backups since the full backup.
- The Full Backup is restored to the UK Server to create a new database in norecovery mode.
- The first log backup file is manually copied to the UK server and restored.
- Start the Log Ship copy SQL Agent job - starts copying files prior the full backup on the Australian server. Copies 1 Log backup file and then fails.
- Manually copy the next Log backup file to the UL server.
- Start the Log Ship Restore SQL Agent job and runs successfully and restores the Log file.
- Start the Log Ship copy SQL Agent job - AGAIN it starts trying to copy files prior to the Full Backup. IS this correct behaviour? I thought it should only copy Log files since the full backup.

Recovery :: Error While Executing Script On Log Shipping Secondary Server?
May 5, 2015We tried to configure log shipping using script generated by GUI and when executed specific script which is meant for secondary server the database is not created and threw below error.
Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_add_log_shipping_secondary_database, Line 50
The database 'BUBALLO' does not exist. Supply a valid database name. To see available databases, use sys.databases.
Note: Only Copy, restore and alerts jobs have been created.
The account I'm trying to configure log shipping is the service account by which SQL and agent services are running and folder in where data and log files are intended and to be created is open to all (everybody has read/write permissioins) believe the issue is not with permissions.

Only members of the sysadmin fixed server role can perform this operation. Error 21089.

Recovery :: AG Database In Reverting / In Recovery State
Nov 1, 2015We have an issue with a 3 node SQL 2012 Always on availability group. Normal operation is node 1 (primary replica) with node 2 and node 3 as secondary replicas.After some patching, SQL wasn't running on node 1 hence the AG flipped over to node 2. This went unnoticed for some time and the transaction log for one of the AG databases became full on node 2 and node 3. (I think this is because it couldn't commit the transactions on node 1 so couldn't truncate it's t-log?) The DB is using synchronous replication btw.So I started SQL on node 1 and flipped the AG back to node 1 (with a data loss warning but I accepted this).Now the issue is that on node 2 and 3, the DB in question is stuck in a "Reverting / In Recovery" State. I've tried various commands such as ALTER DATABASE SET ONLINE, RESTORE DATABASE WITH RECOVERY etc but these fail stating unable to obtain a lock on the DB.
The weird thing is that on node 1 the state of the DB is "synchronised".how to resolve this issue on node 2 and 3? I've left them overnight (in case they were rolling back transactions, the DB is fairly large) but nothing seems to have happened. remove the DB from the AG in node 2 and 3 and add it back in again, ie recreate the replication?
Can We Pause Log Shipping, Bring Primary Db To Simple Recovery Model And Then Back To Full R Model?
Apr 25, 2008
We have the following scenario,
We have our Production server having database on which Few DTS packages execute every night. Most of them have Bulk Insert stored procedures running.
SO we have to set Recovery Model of the database to simple for that period of time, otherwise it will blow up our logs.
Is there any way we can set up log shipping between our production and standby server, but pause it for some time, set recovery model of primary db to simple, execute DTS Bulk Insert Jobs, Bring it Back to Full recovery Model AND finally bring back Log SHipping.
It it possible, if yes how can we achieve this.
If not what could be another DR solution in this scenario.
Thanks Much

I believe it works and need to take care of relationships between tables.The target database is hosted on SQL 2012 standard edition on which TDE is not supported.

Sep 23, 2015I have a database that is the publisher in transactional replication and also part of an availability group. I have put the pertinent certificates on all of the involved servers, and it is encrypted on all servers and operated as expected. However, we are adding additional security for personal data and we have targeted columns in multiple tables for column encryption. I have a master key and certificates that are stored in the master database. Following an example where I am to create the database master key:
-- Create database Key
USE encrypt_test;
GO
CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'Password123';
GO
But when I try to create a certificate on the database:
-- Create self signed certificate
USE encrypt_test;
GO
CREATE CERTIFICATE Certificate1
WITH SUBJECT = 'Protect Data';
GO
It get the following:
Msg 15151, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot find the certificate 'Certificate1', because it does not exist or you do not have permission.
Can I add a database certificate to an already TDE enabled database and if not to I create the symmetric key through the certificate located on the master database? And how will that effect decrypting the column values in stored procedures and function on the user database?
