database backup in sql server code example
Example 1: sql server backup database
DECLARE @name VARCHAR(50)
DECLARE @path VARCHAR(256)
DECLARE @fileName VARCHAR(256)
DECLARE @fileDate VARCHAR(20)
SET @path = 'V:\SQL_Backup\01_Diaria\'
-- specify filename format
SELECT @fileDate = CONVERT(VARCHAR(20),GETDATE(),112)
DECLARE db_cursor CURSOR READ_ONLY FOR
SELECT name
FROM master.sys.databases
WHERE name NOT IN ('master','model','msdb','tempdb') -- exclude these databases
AND state = 0 -- database is online
AND is_in_standby = 0 -- database is not read only for log shipping
OPEN db_cursor
FETCH NEXT FROM db_cursor INTO @name
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
SET @fileName = @path + @name + '_' + @fileDate + '.BAK'
BACKUP DATABASE @name TO DISK = @fileName
WITH INIT, COMPRESSION
FETCH NEXT FROM db_cursor INTO @name
END
CLOSE db_cursor
DEALLOCATE db_cursor
Example 2: t-sql backup names
SELECT CONVERT(CHAR(100), SERVERPROPERTY('Servername')) AS Server,
b.database_name,
b.backup_start_date,
b.backup_finish_date,
b.expiration_date,
CASE b.type
WHEN 'D' THEN 'Database'
WHEN 'L' THEN 'Log'
END AS backup_type,
b.backup_size,
a.logical_device_name,
a.physical_device_name,
b.name,
b.description
FROM msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily a
INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.backupset b
ON a.media_set_id = b.media_set_id
ORDER BY b.database_name,
b.backup_finish_date DESC;
