Log Shipping / Failover

Log Shipping / Failover

 

  

Hi,

Having setup log shipping, the scheduled job seems to be pumping down
the logs to a failover server should something catastrophic happen to my
main server. Noting that it will copy all of my logins, permissions and
objects... has anyone got a best suggested step by step process for
bringing this server 'live' ?

P.s. is this a better solution that using a form of replication if I
want it as best failover solution without implementing clustering?

Cheers
