                                            | Hi,Currently I'm using log shipping method to failover from backup server to live server. But how about those users and database email profile? It didn't copy from backup server to live server. Does this mean i need to create back one by one? Or anyway which i'm not aware?Anyone can help on my question?Thanks in advance. |

                                          | Hi Michael,Thanks for the info.Create those Logins and Profiles manually one by one? If the Live server is down and can't access, we cannot copy from Live to Backup server. Is there any solution on this?  |
