is it any effect for taking log backup from log shipping database

  • Hi Guys,

    I have configured Logshipping in sql server 2008 R2.currently MY servers backup starategy are ,

    full backup 11pm

    differential backup every hours

    logbackup every 1 hour

    Is there any effect of Live database?

  • no this will not adversely affect your live database

  • Is that hourly log backup part of the log shipping setup, or a separate log backup job that you're running?

  • sorry guys i am out of town.Thank you guys

    I have configured logshipping both live databases succesfully.but next day restore jobs are failed.

    backup job is 25 min

    copy job is 30 min

    restore job 35 min

    which is the best backup plan can i follow in logshipping. could you please provide solution.

    this is the error i faced.

    The log shipping primary database SQL1.data has backup threshold of 60 minutes and has not performed a backup log operation for 16736 minutes. Check agent log and logshipping monitor information.

  • Hi Gail,

    No,that is Normal log backup.i am taking all backups through Maintainance plan.

    Regards
    venkat

  • So you're taking normal log backups as well as the log backups taken by the log shipping?

  • Yes gail.

    Logshipping backup job is 25 min

    Normal log backup is 1 hour.

    but three times restore jobs had been failed.Like out of synochronozation.

    how can i solve the issue.

    Regards

  • That is never going to work.

    To restore logs, you need an unbroken chain of log backups. Each log backup is based on the previous log backup. By setting up two different log backups you have guaranteed that log shipping will be permanently broken as only half of the log backups get copied to the secondary. Hence the restores will fail.

    If you are doing log shipping you cannot have anything else backing the logs up.

  • So Gail,

    Due to the Transaction log backups it will effect the log shipping.can i disable the normal log backup.

    Regards
    venkat

    Regards
    venkat

  • Well you have a choice.

    Disable the log backup maintenance plan

    Disable log shipping

    You need to do one of those. Which one is up to you.
