Can we configure logshipping 2005(Enterprise edition) and 2008(Enterprise edition) with standby mode?

  • Hello,

    Can we configure logshipping bitween 2005(Enterprise edition) as primary server and 2008(Enterprise edition) as secondary with standby mode(it shouldn't be in no recovery mode)?

    Thanks

  • No. When log shipping to a higher version (which is not recommended and has very few uses other than a upgrade scenario), the secondary has to be restored WITH NORECOVERY.
