Hi Guys,

I am actually in need of a t-sql or a powershell script that will help me get the latest backup of all sql servers from a central server. We already have our environment setup for this i.e one central server and there are quite a handful of linked servers. I would like to have a script which will scan all of these linked servers get the info back, and send me a report of the latest backup details either in an "HTML" format or possibly using some sort of tabular formatting so that it looks good. I know that many of them might have implemented this in their environment, but this is the need of the hour for me. You can get back to me either providing a comment below or sending a private e-mail on this id faisalfarouqi@gmail.com.

I hope to see a quick response from you experts.

I am not a good programmer by any means as I have almost started off my career in "Sql Server", and would really appreciate your help.

Regards,
Faisal[b][/b][/font]
