Selecting Databases to Back Up
Select the specific database you want to back up. The right pane will display database
name, size, recovery model and status.
If the selected database is so large, that creating a backup archive may take several
hours, and performance requirements make it unsuitable to create a full database
backup, it makes sense to back it up in parts – by one filegroup at a time. For
example, if your database consists of several filegroups, on the first task run, the first
filegroup will be backed up, on the second run – the second filegroup, and so on.
Thus, each time this backup task is executed, only one filegroup will be backed up,
which will appreciably decrease the operation's duration and will not influence on your
company's database work.
Note, you can back up filegroups only while creating a full or differential backup.
To backup a database by separate filegroups, select the Back up only one
subsequent filegroup each time the task starts check box (by default this check
box is disabled and all filegroups of the selected database will be backed up each time
this task is executed).
Also you can change the credentials for connecting to the Microsoft SQL Server by
