Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Nmo
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo (in microsoft.sqlserver.smo.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public NotInheritable Class ApplicationDatabaseFileGroup
    Inherits NamedSmoObject
public sealed class ApplicationDatabaseFileGroup : NamedSmoObject
public ref class ApplicationDatabaseFileGroup sealed : public NamedSmoObject
public final class ApplicationDatabaseFileGroup extends NamedSmoObject
public final class ApplicationDatabaseFileGroup extends NamedSmoObject

Remarks

Each Notification Services application has one database, which can consist of multiple filegroups. Defining these filegroups is optional.

If you define filegroups, one filegroup must be named PRIMARY. You can have additional filegroups to group additional data files together for administrative, data allocation, and placement purposes. For more information about files and filegroups, see Understanding Files and Filegroups.

If you want to alter the application database after creating the application, use the Microsoft SQL Server tools, such as SQL Server Management Studio.

ApplicationDatabaseFileGroup adb_fg = 
    new ApplicationDatabaseFileGroup(adb, "PRIMARY");
adb.ApplicationDatabaseFileGroups.Add(adb_fg);
Dim adb_fg As ApplicationDatabaseFileGroup = _
    New ApplicationDatabaseFileGroup(adb, "PRIMARY")
