I tried to recover the DB using the following command:
restore database mydatabase from disk = 'j:\dell2020\sqlserverbackup\mydatabase.bak'
But I get error in the SSMS
The tail of the log for the database 'mydatabase' has not been backed up.
What do I need to change in the backup command or the restore command?
