Full Backup, T-Log Backup

  • Hi,

    If i take full backup and transaction log backup, is the same data available in the both backups. The DB is in full recovery model.

    Plz tell me any one.....

  • No.

    I think you need to do you research. Google knows all.

    There's a whole sections on this to read up about transaction logs right here on SSC

  • No

    A full database backup is a complete backup of the entire database. A transaction log backup contains the log records since the last transaction log backup.

  • Minimally, you must have created at least one full backup before you can create any log backups.

  • I recommend that you read up about different types of backups, what is included in them, and different strategies. It is far to easy to invest confidence in a faulty disaster recovery plan to only get bitten at the worst possible moment.

  • As Gail pointed out above a full backup is a backup of the entire database.
