SQLBackup Method

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The SQLBackup method performs the database backup operation specified by the properties of the Backup object used.

Syntax

object.SQLBackup(SQLServer)

Parts

  • object
    Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.

  • SQLServer
    SQLServer object connected to an instance of Microsoft SQL Server that is the source of the backup operation.

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT SQLBackup(LPSQLDMOSERVER ServerObject);

Remarks

To perform a database backup operation using SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO), the application specifies the operation process by setting Backup object properties, and then calls the SQLBackup method. For more information about Backup object properties and their effects on the backup operation process, see Backup Object.
