#1:
If you do not specify the –system option, only the user database is backed up.
#2:
This file is created when the drmsqlbackup command is executed.
#3:
If you registered a VDI metafile storage directory by using the drmsqlinit command, the backup
file is stored in the registered directory. The file name is backup-ID_database-ID.dmp. If
you did not register a VDI metafile storage directory by using the drmsqlinit command, the
backup file is stored in the directory that contains the file with the smallest management number
(file_id) value for the SQL Server in the database file. The file name is META_database-
ID.dmp.
Prerequisites
The prerequisites for executing this extended command are as follows:
• An operation definition file linked to the specified operation ID has been provided.
Arguments
operation-ID
A character string that uniquely identifies the operation to be performed. Information in the operation
definition file linked to the specified operation ID is used when executing an extended command.
-system
Specify this option to specify the system databases (master, model, and msdb) as the databases you
want to back up. If this option is specified, SQL Server will stop when the restoration is carried out.
If you specify this option when a database name is assigned to TARGET_NAME in the operation
definition file linked to the specified operation ID, the extended command will produce an error.
-comment backup-comment
Specify this option to register a backup comment in the backup catalog. The conditions for specifying
a value in the backup-comment parameter are as follows:
• The value must be 64 bytes or less.
• The value can include alphanumeric, reserved, one-byte space, and multi-byte characters.
• The value is case sensitive.
• When a reserved character or a one-byte space character is used, the entire value must be enclosed
in double quotation marks (").
• If the value contains a reserved character but is not enclosed in double quotation marks, the reserved
character is not correctly interpreted as a part of the backup-comment string, and is parsed as
a reserved character.
