Examples

This example illustrates using the sp_add_log_shipping_secondary_primary stored procedure to set up information for the primary database AdventureWorks2022 on the secondary server.

EXEC master.dbo.sp_add_log_shipping_secondary_primary @primary_server = N'TRIBECA',
    @primary_database = N'AdventureWorks2022',
    @backup_source_directory = N'\\tribeca\LogShipping',
    @backup_destination_directory = N'',
    @copy_job_name = N'',
    @restore_job_name = N'',
    @file_retention_period = 1440,
    @monitor_server = N'ROCKAWAY',
    @monitor_server_security_mode = 1,
    @copy_job_id = @LS_Secondary__CopyJobId OUTPUT,
    @restore_job_id = @LS_Secondary__RestoreJobId OUTPUT,
    @secondary_id = @LS_Secondary__SecondaryId OUTPUT;
