SAP Server Manager Backup Utility DB backup method, BPC 7.5 MS

Former Member

Hello Experts!

I have been asked how the BPC 7.5 MS Server Manager Backup Utility actually backs up the appset DB.  I have a situation where we have backups of the appset being taken every 15 minutes and the concern is whether the utility will break the backup chain.  I have included a discussion around this in the link below.

http://www.sqlskills.com/blogs/paul/backup-with-copy_only-how-to-avoid-breaking-the-backup-chain/

I am not able to determine in any of the SAP documentation I have searched through whether the utility actually performs a COPY_ONLY when taking the backup.  Does anyone know?  Is it documented somewhere?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Michael

Hi Michael,

I've not seen any documentation explaining this, but for experience I've seen that my manual backup from BPC server manager have created problems to the scheduled differential backup.

If you need some extra backup please read this very interesting document of Madis Udam
