What is a simple command line program or script to backup SQL server databases?

Question

I\'ve been too lax with performing DB backups on our internal servers.

Is there a simple command line program that I can use to backup certain databases in SQL Serv

Answer 1

You could use a VB Script I wrote exactly for this purpose: https://github.com/ezrarieben/mssql-backup-vbs/

Schedule a task in the "Task Scheduler" to execute the script as you like and it'll backup the entire DB to a BAK file and save it wherever you specify.
