Problem

Here is the situation:

DB on Server A had the transaction log shipping configured and uses Server B as secondary. It has been working well for a long time.

However, we recently detected that one of the trn files got corrupted and Server B cannot restore it.

DB on Server A is still healthy, so I would like to create a new full backup into Server B and restart the transaction log shipping.

Since all the timings and other settings were already tweaked and configured, I am trying to avoid starting from scratch.

What step would i need to follow in order to reinitialize the log shipping? (This is a SQL Servert 2008 R2)

Solution


  • Disable the log shipping jobs on both servers.



  • Back up the database on Server A.



  • Restore the database with the backup you just created and with norecovery on Server B.



  • Re-enable the log shipping jobs on both servers.
