I have a log shipping configuration where Server A is primary, B is secondary and C is the monitoring Server. When I run a query on both A and B I get similar results. Which means log shipping is working fine.



However when I run 'Transaction Log Shipping Status' Report on the monitor server I am unable to tell which files were recently copy and which files were last applied. or even when the last backup occurred or a copy was made. The columns are empty. I would like to find out what would cause this to heppen?



Also is there a way to find out the lsn of the databases on both primary and secondary servers.



thanks

ran the procedure. and following columns are still null.

time_since_last_copy
last_copied_file
time_since_last_restore
last_restored_file
last_restored_latency restore_threshold
is_restore_alert_enabled

why would they be null?

Check the job history in primary and secondary server? Are they running well?
