SQL Database Backups

Brand new article

Using our scheduled backup tool, you can arrange backups to go to your local drive, network drive, and upload to drop box.

You can find the download tool on our https://github.com/Coast-to-Coast-Business-Solutions/pointless/releases site. Look for SQLBackupTool in the search.

Make a folder named C:\backups, and c:\backups\sqlbackup

You will need to configure the app.settings file with the databases you wish to backup. As well as the path, the default is c:\backups, a network path if you have one. And then you may input your email smpt settings you use in pointless to alert you in the case of a failed backup.

The drop box feature is an add on that requires an additional subscription & drop box key.
