Exchange DAG seeding copy

[anything I don't mind]

I am trying to seed an exchange DAG database copy and it keeps failing. I have come across an article that says if the source DB has had a backup already done to it, then the only way to seed a copy is to put the database in a circular logging before you start the seed process. Then run with the "deleteexistingfiles" switch when running update-mailboxdatabasecopy.

Anyone have a method that always works that doesn't require me to put it in to circular logging?
