A4: Each run of the copy and restore job is associated with at least one file. By default, if no files are copied or restored in a certain run of any of these two jobs, SQL Server places first_file_000000000000.trn in the file name field. This may or may not indicate a problem. For example, the very first time that copy or restore jobs are run on the secondary server, there might not be any files available to copy or restore. In this case, first_file_000000000000.trn does not necessarily represent an error. However, under certain circumstances, this might represent a problem.
