- On the ‘Specify Backup Disk Directory’ page, make sure ‘Use this directory’ is selected,

and enter the location where your backups should go (usually a different physical drive

than the drive on which the database resides). The default directory is the ‘Backup’

directory under your SQL Server 7 installation directory, such as C:\MSSQL7\BACKUP.

In any case, you should make sure that the specified directory exists in Windows

Explorer, and create it if it does not (using File, New, Folder). Through normal

operation, the database, and therefore the backups, can eventually grow to be very large,

so make sure the space available will be sufficient.

- Click on ‘Remove files older than’, and change the data to the right to ‘2’ ‘Days’.

This value can be varied based on the amount of space available, and the number of

days of backups you wish to keep.

- Click ‘Next’.

- When the ‘Specify the Transaction Log Backup Plan’ page appears, click ‘Next’.

- When the ‘Reports to Generate’ page appears, click ‘Next’.

- When the ‘Maintenance History’ page appears, click ‘Next’.

- When the ‘Completing the Database Maintenance Plan Wizard’ page appears, select the

entire contents of the ‘Plan Name’ field, and type over it: ‘DB Backup’. This may not

paint correctly, but your changes should appear in the list once you are finished with this

step. Click ‘Finish’.

- Click OK.

- Exit Enterprise Manager.
