In SQL 2012 SP1 enterprise, when taking a full backup and followed up a transaction log backup immediately, the transaction log backup starts with an earlier LSN than the ending LSN of the full backup. As a result, I cannot restore the transaction log backup after the full backup both as nonrecovery on another machine. I was trying to make the two machine in sync for mirroring purpose. An example is as follows.
full backup: first 1121000022679500037, last 1121000022681200001
transaction log: first 1121000022679000001, last 1121000022682000001
--- SQL Scripts used
BACKUP DATABASE xxx TO DISK = xxx WITH FORMAT
go
backup log xxx to disk = xxx
--- When restore, I tried the
restore log BarraOneArchive from disk=xxx WITH STOPATMARK = 'lsn:1121000022682000001', NORECOVERY
Also tried StopBeforeMark, did not work either. Complained about the LSN too early to apply to the database
