Hello, I am trying to set up new log shipping on Sql Server 2000 to another instance of the same on my laptop. But it says that the Log Shipping Monitor allready exists. I have allready removed the previous log shipping which was configured. and following through the wizard of log shipping there is no way I can skip the step or configuring the new log shipping monitor, either the primary or secondary. How to remove this log shipping monitor? Thanks, archit
Hi, • log_shipping_plans • log_shipping_plan_databases • log_shipping_databases • log_shipping_plan_history • log_shipping_monitor • log_shipping_primaries • log_shipping_secondaries These are the systewm tables available in msdb,if u had configured log shipping earlier. check log_shipping_monitor system table since u had already configured log shipping there was already an entry in these system tables,so u just need to remove those records....it shud be fine have a nice day Regards Deepak SQL DBA

I have got a database on sql2005 instance. I took a full backup of it and did not take any transactional log back up. Then I tried restoring that backup with "standy by/read only" option. now I can not access it even to restore with recovery mode.. what shall I do?
Why don't you start a new thread as this is not related to Log shipping?
