Can we do Transaction log backup and log shipping on same server.

Hi,
I know that Log Shipping and Transaction log backup cannot be
done on same primary server side by side because i tried it, but i want
possible reason for that.
Next i want to know is that can we Detach and re Atach Log
Shipping Database on secondary server in a Standby mode (as you know
this database is itself in standby mode before detaching).
thanks and regards,
Sajid.What's version are you using?

You can do it, but you don't want to. Log shipping is based on transaction l
og backups. And as you
know, log backups has to be performed in sequence. So if the first log backu
p is shipped to the
other server, and the second is done by you and not shipped to the server, t
hen the third log backup
done my log shipping won't restore as the second haven't been restored. It i
s possible that the
built-in log shipping tries somehow to restrict you from such a scenario, wh
ich would be a smart
thing to do.
