I currently have logshipping targetting one system and it is doing great. Now I would like to add a second target system for DR. I would like to have it start with the full backup, but since both of the target systems share a repository used to hold backups, I am afraid the initial full backup would get processed by the existing target system, as well.Would the existing target system recognize that it has that data already and skip by it? Is there a way to do this without having to stop the logshipping that is running now in order to reconfigure?Thanks

Database Boot Page and MinLSN
Hi,
BOL states the following while describing the processes of a checkpoint:
What is the database boot page? Does log "image" in the second para mean log "record?" If not, what does it mean? And what is a database-wide rollback?I would highly appreciate if somebody answered these questions.

SQL Server 2000 SP4 - Read Only DB Suspect
Evening All,
In the process of migrating a small DB to SQL Server 2014, I've managed to mark one of the DB's as suspect because it was set to read only during the SP4 upgrade. It was previously SP3.
Does anyone know if I can salvage this DB?
