| David writes "I have been trying unsuccessfully to schedule backups of my SQL Server 2000 databases to devices set up on the server hard drive. I have been able create the devices without any problem and also run a backup of the databases to their backup devices successfully. However, when I attempt to schedule the backup in Enterprise Manager-Management-Backup nothing happens. It allows me to schedule apparently succesfully, but no actual backup takes place. I have tried many times; I have recreated the devices; I have used different databases; I have tried different schedules i.e. one time only, recurring, etc.; nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated!" |
