13: Database Backup and Restoration
Conduct a Random Database Backup for
ACCESSCONTROL
Note:
These procedures apply to Dell Precision 330 Workstation platforms.
Before conducting the backup, make sure that there is a tape in the drive that is
labeled and is of a supported media format for the drive that you are using.
1. Open SQL Enterprise Manager and navigate to the section that contains the
SQL Server Agent Tasks.
2. Once you are in the section, right click on the BackUp AccessControl task
and select Start Job. The backup will run and you will be able to monitor
the status in the Enterprise Manager window.
Once the backup procedure has begun, it will automatically format and
overwrite any data that is currently on the tape. If you do not want to lose the
data that is on your tape, it is important that you insert a new tape.
