Because you've got some issue that needs to be resolved. Log shipping monitor will show whether or not the file copied over and whether or not it restored. So which part isn't working?Using 3 exclamation points in all of your posts does not increase the urgency for us. Please be respectful when you post.Tara Kizer |

No it does not look right. The backups aren't even working. This is how I know:last back up file first_file_0000000000.trnIf the backups were working correctly, you'd see a real file name instead of first_file...Tara Kizer |

According to log shipping, the log backup is not working fine. Are you sure you don't have some other process that is backing up the transaction log for you? With log shipping, log shipping can be the only one backing up the transaction log.Tara Kizer |

If you make a change in the database at the source, does the change get copied to the destination database? Just because your jobs are showing as successful doesn't mean that it is actually working. You have to verify it with data. If everything is working, then the problem is with the monitor only.Tara Kizer |

You do not need to run the full backup using the log shipping maintenance plan.Tara Kizer |

Delete log shipping. Then delete all rows from any tables that start with log_shipping in the msdb database. Do this on both the primary and secondary server as well as the log shipping monitor server. All rows from all of these tables should be deleted. Then re-setup log shipping. Tara Kizer |

Hi,I"m having a somewhat similar problem.I"ve set up log shipping indicating that the target database already exists. However, the transaction files are not being copied to the destination server. However, the copying and restoring jobs run successfully.There is no issue with backing up the transaction log directly to the folder in question on the target server using the name Windows account.Any insight would be greatly appreciated. |
