Backup file copy

  • Hi,

    I have a database on sqlserver 2005.I usually take a full db backup and sequential transaction log backups and append each of the backups it to a backup file on E drive.Now if i want to copy my second transaction log file to a specific folder on D drive on my server.Do we have any procedure to do it.

  • you can create any stored procedure

    and use sqlcmd which a command line utility use robocopy or move any of O/S commands. It would work

    Create procedure movefile

    as

    (

    exec xp_cmdshell or sqlcmd 'write your OS command here like robocopy [sourcefoler] [destinationfolder] filename'

    )

  • I'm a little confused. What does your second log file have to do with backups?
