• Mile Higher, at this point, I think would be best to take SpringTown's advise and download from the site linked by opc.three.

    I would advise the same steps in deploying Ola hollengren's script, deploy in dev, make sure you understand the options you want to use and what they do, then when ready, deploy in prod.

    Sorry for not suggesting Ola's solution first, given the context of this forum, I should have.

    Also if you're going to be doing things similar to this from time to time with SQL Server, I would definitely recommend this book which walks you through many things from start to finish in SQL Server 2008: http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft%C2%AE-Server%C2%AE-2008-Step-Microsoft/dp/0735626049/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1343914160&sr=1-1&keywords=sql+server+2008+step+by+step. It helped me out big time when I was starting out.
