Restore works ..... sometimes?

  • I have an interesting issue with a nightly restore to our adhoc database. 

    The issue is that it works sometimes, and other nights it fails.   We have 32 databases in this scheduled process, but only 3 of them have any problems, where some nights they work, and others they dont????

    The code that is being executed is:

    RESTORE DATABASE DB06

    FROM DISK = 'D:\LogShipTemp\Production_data.bak'

    WITH

    REPLACE,

    MOVE 'Production_Data' TO 'D:\SQLData\MSSQL\Data\DB06_data.mdf',

    MOVE 'Production_log' TO 'D:\SQLData\MSSQL\Data\DB06_log.ldf'

    The error message that we sometimes get is:  

    Server: Msg 5173, Level 16, State 1, Procedure restore_Production_backups, Line 23

    Cannot associate files with different databases.

    Log file 'D:\SQLData\MSSQL\Data\DB06_log.ldf' does not match the primary file.  It may be from a different database or the log may have been rebuilt previously.

    Processed 341720 pages for database 'DB06', file 'Production_Data' on file 1.

    Processed 2 pages for database 'DB06', file 'Production_Log' on file 1.

    RESTORE DATABASE successfully processed 341722 pages in 287.968 seconds (9.721 MB/sec).

    The backup that we are using is a FULL backup. 

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks in Advance

  • Are the paths to the data and log for the db different from the primary to the fail over server?
