Copy logins from server to server

  • I am setting up database mirroring for the first time and I have to copy the logins from the principle to the mirror in case of a failover. I have found the tranfer login script ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918992/ ) but I'm not sure if this will remove the logins from my principle server. I would like to have the logins exist on both servers simultaneously.

  • That'll just copy them. Take a scan through this forum. Someone just posted yesterday with pretty much the same question. You may want to check out the comments there.

  • That KB shows you how to script out the logins and move them over, with passwords intact.

    As Pam mentioned, this won't do anything to them on the principal.
