Restore job gets stuck

MottyKohnDev

After a restore job I can't read from database until I kill that long-running job. I'll try to give as much info as I can but being that I'm stuck I'm not sure what is pertinent.

• We are using RedGate's SQL Backup V9 to restore log-shipping incrementals, this runs on a Sql Server job hourly. Files come from a vendor, and that is how they send us data.
• Database is always in Read-Only/Standby mode.
• Command we run is:

SET @cmd = CONCAT('-SQL "RESTORE LOG [DB] FROM DISK = ''', @SourceFolder, '\LOG*.SQB'' WITH  MOVETO=''', @SourceFolder, '\temp\'', STANDBY = ''D:\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\db.dat'', CONTINUE_AFTER_ERROR, DISCONNECT_EXISTING,PASSWORD = ''', @Password,'''')
EXECUTE [master]..sqlbackup @cmd, @errorcode OUT, @sqlerrorcode OUT;

• Job just times out and moves on even though it is set to fail on error - but that is not my question now.
• Database is still in Read-Only/Standby mode, but any read times out.
• Running sp_whoisactive returns:

In the RedGate log I see: Warning 445: Get exclusive local data store access failed - timeout.
In the Event viewer I see a bunch of: SQLVDI: Loc=TriggerAbort. Desc=invoked. ErrorCode=(0). Process=3024. Thread=6560. Server. Instance=MSSQLSERVER. VD=Global\SQLBACKUP_3F946102-4D96-43A1-9596-29358E1589AA_SQLVDIMemoryName_0.

In the SQL Backup log folder (default is C:\Users\All Users\Red Gate\SQL Backup\Log\), is there a text file named SQBCoreService_<instance name>_bugreport.txt file?  If there is, could you please send that file to peter.yeoh@red-gate.com?  Thanks.
