Using the SQL Server log-shipping function

The log-shipping function of an SQL Server database allows you to continuously copy backup
transaction log data to a destination server. This section describes the preparations and settings
needed to use this function.

Before using the log-shipping function

The log-shipping functionality can be used when an SQL Server database is to be backed up. Using
the log-shipping functionality, you can continuously copy backed-up transaction logs to a distribution
server so that it can be used as an operation server. For details on the log-shipping functionality, see
the SQL Server manual. This section provides an example of synchronizing the database on a source
server and the database on a distribution server and setting log-shipping operations on the source
server before using the log-shipping functionality of SQL Server. This explanation assumes the system
configuration shown in the following figure.
