Hi,I need your advice on a Backup restore sequence case.This is for restoring full and transaction backup from primary server to mirror server for sql2008 R2 mirroring. The mirroring operation got suspended for a while so they are out of synched.I have these backup files on server 11) 7:30 PM Transaction log backup 2) 8:00 PM Full backup start 3) 8:30 PM Transaction log backup 4) 9:00 PM full backup completed, .bak file time stamp at 8:57 PM5) 9:30 PM Transaction log backup My question is when I restore to server2, what comes after the full back up, the 3) or the 5)? Thanks! |

It turned out the server knew which is the right one.restore log 3) gave me this:Msg 4326, Level 16, State 1, Line 1The log in this backup set terminates at LSN 264985000001134600001, which is too early to apply to the database. A more recent log backup that includes LSN 264985000001151600001 can be restored.Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1RESTORE LOG is terminating abnormally.quote: Originally posted by Hommer Hi,I need your advice on a Backup restore sequence case.This is for restoring full and transaction backup from primary server to mirror server for sql2008 R2 mirroring.

Could you check if it meant the FULL BACKUP restore. I'm assuming you're restoring the FULL backup started and completed with steps 2 & 4. In terms of restore , the next step would be 5 . As the FULL BACKUP will contain all transactions commited during the full backup Use this query to identify the first and last LSN of the various backups you've taken , and use as a guide what to restorehttp://www.sqlserver-dba.com/2012/06/display-sql-backup-history-for-a-single-database.htmlJack Vamvas--------------------http://www.sqlserver-dba.com |
