Database Backup from SQL Server Managment Studio


Hi all,

Some Client requires to take database backup on daily basis but due to increasing size of data its is tedious and time consuming if we suggest to go for Navision Backup.At this point the best solution to suggest is to take backup from SQL Server.So lets discuss how to take backup of a database from SQL Server Managment Studio.

For taking Backup from SQL Server there are certain steps -



 Open SQL Server Management Studio on Server where the database resides.












Login to SQL Server Management Studio and Drill Down to the Database whose backup you want to take and Right Click It. Now select option of Backup.












The Next Windows shows you the details about the database and you can select the Destination path and file name here.
















You can change the path and file name of the backup by first clicking on Remove which will remove the existing (default) path and file name and then Add.. to set the new path and new file name for backup.
















Remember that file name should end with .bak Extension.
Then Click Ok and the backup will be done on the destination Location.
















Thanks & Regards,
