Was unsure where to place this post.
Windows Server 2003R2 w/ Sp2
MS SQL 2005
I currently use MS SQL 2005 to host my Citrix Datastore DB. I manually run a daily back up (Tasks>Backup).
How difficult would this be to automated? I saw a post from another user that this can be accomplished using a script? I have googled this without luck.
Any insight appreciated.
Thanks,
Kerry

Can you elaborate?
I already know how to manually run a backup. I just need to know the details on how to automate that process.

Open 'Management' in Management Studio, select 'Maintenance Plans' and create a new maintenance plan using Maintenance Plan Wizard.

Using Maintenance Plan Wizard, you can automate the backup maintenance.

Thanks for the help! The Maintenance Plan (Wizard) worked great. Scheduled backups are running fine.

Be sure that you are running transaction log backups as well if you are in full recovery model. you can add this to the maintenance plan.

Do I restore the Trans Log in the same manner I restored the DB's?
How do I restore the MASTER DB? From a command line I ran sqlservr.exe -f, but I don't know how to restore MASTER DB from command line?
Should I bve restoring items in a particular manner?
Appreciate the help!

There are special procedures to follow if you need to restore system databases.
You will want to read up on there from Books Online. Link is

Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency on my part...unless you're my manager...or a director and above...or a really loud-spoken end-user..All right - what was my emergency again?

Ok, update.
I performed the following:
1. Formatted the drive, installed OS, installed SQL 2005
2. Restored my specific DB
- NOTE: Did NOT restore the MASTER DB
3. Added user account under logins
All seems to be working.
Again, keep in mind this is a very small DB with on a single user. Am I missing something? Is there a method to automating the user account?
