Re: Log shipping Failover.



No, you can't do this for automatic failover. While it is possible to hard
code this in your application, Microsoft does not recommend you do this as
you should redirect your clients as part of a controlled failover processes.

Have a look at the section entitled Log Shipping and Application Code in
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2000/reskit/part4/c1361.mspx?mfr=true

Hello.

How must I configure SQL Server clients, when a failover occurs between a
primary server and secondary server using Log shipping?

I know that in a Mirroring environment I can configure the SQL provider
with 2 server names. Can I do anything similiar in a Log shipping
environment?

Thanks in advance.
