Arguments
- [ @restore_delay = ] 'restore_delay'
The amount of time, in minutes, that the secondary server waits before restoring a given backup file. restore_delay is int and cannot be NULL. The default value is 0.
- [ @restore_all = ] 'restore_all'
If set to 1, the secondary server restores all available transaction log backups when the restore job runs. Otherwise, it stops after one file has been restored. restore_all is bit and cannot be NULL.
[ @restore_mode = ] 'restore_mode'
The restore mode for the secondary database.0 = restore log with NORECOVERY.
1 = restore log with STANDBY.
restore is bit and cannot be NULL.
- [ @disconnect_users = ] 'disconnect_users'
If set to 1, users is disconnected from the secondary database when a restore operation is performed. Default = 0. disconnect_users is bit and cannot be NULL.
- [ @block_size = ] 'block_size'
The size, in bytes, that is used as the block size for the backup device. block_size is int with a default value of -1.
- [ @buffer_count = ] 'buffer_count'
The total number of buffers used by the backup or restore operation. buffer_count is int with a default value of -1.
- [ @max_transfer_size = ] 'max_transfer_size'
The size, in bytes, of the maximum input or output request which is issued by SQL Server to the backup device. max_transfersize is int and can be NULL.
- [ @restore_threshold = ] 'restore_threshold'
The number of minutes allowed to elapse between restore operations before an alert is generated. restore_threshold is int and cannot be NULL.
- [ @threshold_alert = ] 'threshold_alert'
Is the alert to be raised when the backup threshold is exceeded. threshold_alert is int, with a default of 14420.
- [ @threshold_alert_enabled = ] 'threshold_alert_enabled'
Specifies whether an alert will be raised when backup_threshold is exceeded. 1 = enabled; 0 = disabled. threshold_alert_enabled is bit and cannot be NULL.
- [ @history_retention_period = ] 'history_retention_period'
Is the length of time in minutes in which the history will be retained. history_retention_period is int. A value of 1440 will be used if none is specified.

Examples
This example illustrates using sp_change_log_shipping_secondary_database to update secondary database parameters for the database LogShipAdventureWorks.
EXEC master.dbo.sp_change_log_shipping_secondary_database
@secondary_database = 'LogShipAdventureWorks'
, @restore_delay = 0
, @restore_all = 1
, @restore_mode = 0
, @disconnect_users = 0
, @threshold_alert = 14420
, @threshold_alert_enabled = 1
, @history_retention_period = 14420
