Hi All,
Getting below Error while setting up Log shipping
I am trying to setup log shipping from sql sever 2008 r2 sp2 instance to sql server 2014 RTM instance.
I am implementing log shipping for 4 databases. Out of 4, 3 db's are configured and working properly.
But for the 4th database it is giving following error. Is this a known issue.
TITLE: Transaction Log Shipping Destination Settings
------------------------------
The specified database does not exist. You must choose an initialization option that creates the database when restoring a full backup of the primary database, or you must choose an existing database that has already been initialized.
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
Steps followed to setup log shipping
1. Taken full bkp restored with norecovery
2. Taken log bkp restore with norecovery
3. now on priamry db, in GUI when click Add Secondary server button-> In initialization tab, you have 3 options to choose. Since I have already restore my db
on secondary instance with same name , by default it should choose the 3rd option which is , i dont require any initialization.
But it is selecting 1st option saying , Yes i need to generate a fresh backup of the primary db.
Why is that ??? Any comments?

have you specified the correct database name, it defaults to the same name as the primary
