Incremental Backup
-
I am using script to backup database, Is there syntax for incremental backup? Thank you.
Here is script that I am using:
BACKUP DATABASE COI
TO DISK = N'D:\Microsoft SQL server\MSSQL\COIDiff.bak'
WITH NOINIT , NOUNLOAD , DIFFERENTIAL , NAME = N'COI backup',
STATS = 10, NOFORMAT

Paul,
Not sure what you mean by "incremental" backup. A differential backup will backup the part of the database that has changed since the last full backup.

I am runnig Full and Differential backup. But The Boss want to use incremental instant Differential.

differential backups are not incremental, they each contain all differences since the last full backup.
If you want to use incremental backups, activate full (or bulk logged) recovery model and use log-backups.
This way you can perform point in time recovery !
check "backup log" in books online
