The following options are available as Advanced Options:
| Options | Description |
|---|---|
| Number of threads | Allows you to specify how many threads you want SQL Safe to use to distribute the backup operation across multiple processors on the target SQL Server computer. Use this setting to optimize backup performance. Select Auto to have SQL Safe determine the optimal thread count for your environment. |
| Remove inactive transaction log entries | Removes all completed transactions from the transaction log after SQL Safe finishes the backup. This option is only available for Log backups. |
| Generate maps | Generates maps containing metadata for each database included in your backup file. Depending on the number of transactions completed since your last backup, generating maps may impact the performance of the backup operation. Generating maps is optional, but must exist in the backup file for InstantRestore to accept and restore that file. SQL virtual database can attach SQL Safe backup files without the metadata, but the data files improve SQL vdb performance during creation of the virtual database. For more information, see Recover objects using SQL virtual database. This option is selected by default. |
| Include database logins in backup file | Copies SQL login information for the selected databases, including credentials and privileges, when the backup files are written. To help ensure the security of your SQL Server database, SQL Safe encrypts the login information. This option is available for full backups only. |
What are the advanced options for SQL Server 2005 and later?
The following options are available as Advanced Options for SQL Server 2005 and later:
| Options | Description |
|---|---|
| Generate checksums | Generates a checksum for the backup file. |
| Ignore checksum errors | Select this option to ignore any errors from the generated checksum. If checksum errors are encountered, this option indicates that SQL Safe should continue to back up this database. |
| Read-write filegroups | Specifies a partial backup, which includes the primary filegroup and any read-write secondary filegroups. Read-write filegroups are not supported by SQL virtual database. If this option is selected, the Generate metadata option will be disabled. Additionally, backups created with the read-write filegroups option cannot be used by SQL virtual database to create virtual databases. |
