LiteSpeed for SQL Server 8.9.8 - Integration with TSM Guide

About Creating Maintenance Plans

Use the Design pane to create a workflow of database maintenance tasks. Tasks can execute independent of another task's status, or can be dependent on another task's completion before they can begin execution.

You can add additional subplans in a maintenance plan to group related tasks or to schedule tasks to execute at different times.

To create a maintenance plan

  1. Select Maintenance Plans in the Navigation pane (CTRL+4).
  2. Right-click a server instance and select Create New Maintenance Plan in the Maintenance Plan pane.
  3. Drag tasks to the Design pane to add them to the subplan. Double-click a task to specify its properties.

    Tip: If you need to create several similar plans, you can simply copy existing plans or subplans and then make the necessary edits. Copy Maintenance Plans

    Tip: For legacy maintenance plans only:

    • You cannot have more than one task of the same type in a subplan. To add a duplicate task, create a new subplan and add the task.  
    • You cannot have both a Fast Compression Backup task and Back Up Database task added to the same subplan.
    • Any tasks in the subplan must use the same list of databases. If you select a different database in a task, LiteSpeed prompts you to apply the database change to the entire subplan.
