Need Help In Deleting Backup Schedule
Aug 18, 2000
I created a backup device and then scheduled a recurring backup of one of my SQL databases for SMS. I right-clicked on the database name and chose All Tasks | Backup and set a daily schedule.
Now I want to delete the whole thing and use Database Maintenance Plans instead. The backup device never showed up in Management | Backup so I deleted the backup files (and devices?) from NT Explorer. The backups still occur, I'm guessing, because I never deleted the Schedule. How do I get these backups to stop?
P.S. Forgive me if this is an elementary questions -- I am new to SQL.
Thanks.

SQL server 2005 is installed but can not schedule a backup job.
In the maintenance plan when selecting a new maintenance plan or maintenance plan wizard an error is produced which is:
'Agent XPs' component is turned off as part of the security configuration for this server.
I can see that the SQL Server Agent (Agent XPs is disabled). When trying to start this by right clicking on it in object explorer, the error message is 'unable to start service SQLAgent$SQL2005 on server serverName'. Service Logon failure
How can I scedule a back up job on this server?
Any thoughts please?

Hi all,
On my server running SQL7.0 with SP2, I try to backup my database to a file.
All works well if I run the backup manually, but when I use the schedule option, when I close the Backup properties window and open the window again, the schedule is gone...
Does anyone of you know how to get this working?
Thanks in advance,
Camiel

I am setting up a backup on one of my DB's and the network drive does not appear as an location that I can backup too. Only the C drive is present. However, on the server I do have a drive mapped to the network drive, so it should be available. Has anyone encountered this issue before?
Thanks!

Hi,
I am trying to schedule a daily task to restore the latest backup from a BackupDevice that contains multiple backups. The command to restore is "Load DBName from BackupDevice". Does anyone know how to restore the most current backup from the Backup device?
Thank you for your help.

I have a transaction log which is backed up 5 times a day to a device.
The Transaction log is growing quite quickly in between each backup. The backup device is also growing at a much quicker rate.
realistically i would like to only keep 2 weeks worth of transaction log backups in the device.
for the transaction log backup i have tried the following transact-Sql
'Backup Log [imsv23] to [imsv23_TL_2] with RetainDays = 7, Init, NoUnload, Name = N'imsv23 TL V2', NoSkip,Stats=10,Noformat'
but due to all of the contents in the backup set not having expired the backup fails.
i need to reduce the size of the backup device. all of the backup sets have expiry dates but none of them are being deleted from device.
so my problem is 1 i need to remove the excessive backups from the device
2 i need to set up the automatic backups so that these datasets are removed when the expiry date is reached.
thanks in advance

Does anyone know a way of deleting old backup information? We'll shortly be in a position where SQL thinks we have got a certain number of backups whereas in fact the older ones will have been copied to tape & deleted. Apart from being misleading this must also be leaving redundant data in the system/control tables & I'd prefer not to have to look at increasing their size just because of this. Anyone got any tips? Thanks very much to the guys who have responded to my previous 2 questions, being new to SQL I certainly appreciate the help.

Hi,
Is there any method that I can use to backup the whole database to another database without using replication? I have to backup it every half year. Can I do something like setting schedule to run to "Database Backup" module in sql server?
Thanks,

I am running the latest MSDE with the SQL Server 2000 client tools on
Windows 2K Server on my production server. I have a simliar setup on my
development machine except it is running Windows 2K (non-server). I
have the same issue on both machines (I am wondering if it is related
to the structure of the database). When I open Enterprise Manager,
connect to the server, navigate to the Management folder, and add a new
management plan, I experience the following error.
I create a management plan that includes nothing but a complete
database backup (i.e. no reorganization of index pages, logging, etc.).
I set the backup schedule to occur every Sun at 12:00AM and hit OK.
Sometimes I get the following error :"Error 8114: Error converting data
type int to tinyint" sometimes not. Either way, though, the same thing
happens, the schedule for the backup is not saved. If I reopen the
management plan and go to the "Complete Backup" tab, there is no
schedule in the schedule box.
I have found this link:http://www.technologyone.org/new-4581847-3733.html
Which appears to be the same issue that I am having, however, there is
no resolution there. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas.

Hi All,
I've just started at a new job that is a little bit of a step up from my old job. At my previous job I was responsible for 5 instances of SQL Server with about 30 databases. My new job has me (and a team of 3 other DBA's) responsible for 100+ instances. The backup schedule and process is a mess. I'm thinking about moving everything to Maintenance Plans (some 2000, some 2005). I've always scheduled individual jobs for each database previously and done index maintenance manually, but I'm kinda leaning toward Maintenance Plans just to simplify everything.
Anyone out there have any input on how and why they chose MP's over scheduling backups db by db? Or anyone out there choose not to use MP's for a particular reason? Input is greatly appreciated.

In a recent attempt to keep the size of my transaction log files down I altered the schedule of my SQL Server log backups from running every 15 minutes from 07:00 to 19:00 to run every 15 minutes.My company also uses a Dell AppAssure application to also take backups. The backups are of the entire drives so I don't this will affect the size of my SQL log files but I did notice that AppAssure has a tick box to truncate the SQL logs so it made me wonder that it could affect the size of my log file. The Appassure backups currently run every 15 minutes from 07:00 to 19:00. I'm wondering if I would be able to maintain my log files at a smaller size if I ran this every 15 minutes from 07:00 to 07:00.

I have created some backups where expiration dates or days to be
retained were not specified.
Using EM, how do I find the old backups.
Using EM, how do I delete the old backups (hoping this will
clean up the MSDB tables and physically delete the files
from disk).
Thanks!!!!

We are doing a full backup at night. During the day we are doing a backup of the log every hour. How do I delete the log backups from the media without deleting the device itself. I would like to do this once we have a full backup for the day. The media we are backing up the logs to is disk.

Such a simple task. Not doing as it should!!
This Maintenance Cleanup Task is set to delete all BAK and TRN files it's made (in seperate maintenance plans) in given path, with the given file extension, delete files based on the age of the file at task run time. Delete files older that 4 days.
The files are now backing up for months and months. I'm not going to take care of this. I've got a computer to do this for me, every time it runs its jobs, every 4 hours and once overnight.
This is ignoring commands and refusing to do as it's told. I've checked the settings in here over and over. It's so simple - what could be wrong? I've checked the path, the file age, the extensions... The disks are getting full!
Has anyone seen anything like this?

Hello to all members.
I am using SQL Server 2005 std edition 32 bit
The database is configured in compatibility mode to sql server 2000
The backup mode for the database is configured as simple
With SQL Server Agent I am running schedule task of the backup script
The question is:
I would like to save only the last 7 days in repository.
This means that when the 8th days has become then the 1st day backup is deleted.
in the 9th day the 2nd day backup file is deleted.
and so on
I am using the the T-SQL BACKUP DATABASE command with the following arguments:
RETAINDAYS = 7
NOFORMAT
NOINIT
SKIP
I am in situation that the command above only append to the backup file and without deleting the expired backup days.
What I need to change in the parameters that the script will delete the expired backup days.
Thanking in advance everyone who assist.

It is too much work when working with Database Maintenance Wizard.
lets take a scenario that I have 10 database.
I would like that each database will backup into seperate file.
I need to create 10 * 7 Maintenance plans.
I have created a directory with the name SDBbackup.
Now under the directory SDBbackup I have created 7 directories (1,2,3,4,5,6,7).
Each directory is for Sunday=1 , Monday=2 , and etc.
It's very much work if I need to accomplish it with Database Maintenance Wizard.
This is why I am asking a specific question regarding T-SQL.
Thanking in advance everyone who assist.
