5.2.3 Selecting Objects to Back Up

In the left pane of the window select a server with Microsoft SQL Server installed and specify

Microsoft SQL Server instances or specific databases to back up. In case an instance is

selected, all associated databases will also be selected.

Information on the selected item is displayed in the right pane of the window: server name,

installed operating system and the number of Microsoft SQL Server instances.

In this step you can change the credentials for connecting to the server by clicking the

Change link (see

Specifying Credentials

(p. 37) for details).

Selecting Instances to Back Up

When selecting an instance to back up Acronis will automatically backup all of the databases

associated with this instance, including system databases.

A list of instances can be obtained, with the connected user’s privileges that cannot be

changed.

The right pane will display instance name, Microsoft SQL Server version, amount of

databases and their total size.
