where does my sqlServer2005 insallation store its bak files?
-
where in sql server 2005 ( and 2000 for that matter) do i find the path to the location where backups are placed (.bak files)
-
Program Files Microsoft SQL Server MSSQL data backup.
-
SQL2005 :
declare
@DefaultBackupDirectory nvarchar(512)
exec
master.dbo.xp_instance_regread N'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE', N'Software\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\MSSQLServer',N'BackupDirectory', @DefaultBackupDirectory OUTPUT
print @DefaultBackupDirectory
-- and
exec sp_helpdevice
and check your backup-jobs / maintenance-plans to see where they put the files.
