| Affected Issues | 0000199: Plugin to do backup of Microsoft Sql Server (mssql) server | ||||
| Changeset | Plugin to do backup of Microsoft Sql Server (mssql) server Implement a native backup plugin for MSSQL based on the Virtual Device Interface (VDI) which uses the native MSSQL backup tooling but instead of writing it to a tape or disk directly it will save it to a so called virtual device from which the plugin reads the data on restore we restore to a virtual device and the native MSSQL software recovers the database from that. This is based on the mssql-fd found on sourceforge from 2010 but with a lot of changes to adhere to the Bareos coding style and to be able to compile it with mingw instead of Visual C. We also rewrote it to use pthreads instead of the windows threading, and the whole code is made somewhat more modular using inline functions which handle certain logic operations. We also implemented the ability to overwrite the plugin options which can be passed in via the Plugin Options method from the restore menu. Currently we allow on restore to restore to a so called Point In Time (PIT) using the normal MSSQL STOPBEFORMARK, STOPAT and STOPATMARK which allow you to rollback to a certain time or specific LSN (Log Sequence Number). This should all make sense to MSSQL DBA's who are used to using the native backup tooling to make disk backups. Fixes 0000199: Plugin to do backup of Microsoft Sql Server (mssql) server |
