sp_change_secon dary_role missing in SQL Server 2005?

NiTiN

I've got SQL Server 2005 Ent Ed 9.0.1399 and want to change my
secondary Log Shipping server into a primary. I've tried locating the
sp_change_secon dary_role, but can't seem to find it. Has it been
replaced with another stored procedure? If so, which are the procedures
to run?

On SQL Server 2000, the following were the steps listed:
1. Transfer logins
2. Run sp_change_prima ry_role
3. Run sp_change_secon dary_role
4. Run sp_change_monit or_role (this exists in SQL Server 2005)
5. Run sp_resolve_logi ns

3 & 5 are what I'd expect to perform if the primary isn't available.

To get a secondary up and running, I've disabled the SQL Server Agent
jobs, restored the last transaction log (with recovery) and I've got a
working database. I was just wondering what I'd do if the last
transaction log has already been applied with norecovery.

Later, when the former primary is functional, I'll just restore from a
full backup, overwriting the existing database, and then will setup
transaction log shipping on the new primary which will automatically
get the new logs restored.

I didn't execute any stored procedures, though... it was GUI all the
way for me.

Why would anyone DO this?? Am I missing something

by: Stephanie Stowe | last post by:

You have a page. On top of the page, there are some search criteria and other input elements and a submit button. The submit button is clicked, sending a request to the server.

And it is UGLY. If other client-events were going to interact with the divs,...
