Answer / unknown
If for any table, we have more than one primary key, viz If
the table can be uniquely identified by the help of more
than one attribute, the collection is called 'Composite
Key'. If only one key can act as the unique key, it is the
Primary key, rest of the keys are called alternate keys.
Individual keys of the composite key are the candidate keys.

What is log shipping? Can we do logshipping with SQL Server 7.0 - Logshipping is a new feature of SQL Server 2000. We should have two SQL Server - Enterprise Editions. From Enterprise Manager we can configure the logshipping. In logshipping the transactional log file from one server is automatically updated into the backup database on the other server. If one server fails, the other server will have the same db and we can use this as the DR (disaster recovery) plan.
