Log Shipping - multiple instances

  • Hi,

    We have 4 production SQL2005 Standard Servers. For DR and reporting purposes, we would like to set up log shipping from each of these to one server running 4 instances of SQL server - one for each of the production servers. I understand that we may have performance issues, but is it possible? Any advice would be great. Thank you!!

  • I think it is possible as it is based on backup and restore. Instances involved in log shipping should have the same case sensitivity settings.

  • I agree with Mohan, it should work.

  • Thank you for your responses! Now, to attempt the implementation....

  • As mentioned above you can go ahead and setup log shipping it should be fine. We have configured for databases of which one is 700 + GB in size. It is working fine till date:). Refer this link for configuring log shipping in Sql Server 2005,
