LiteSpeed for SQL Server 8.9.5 - Installation Guide

xp_slsSmartCleanup

Removes full and differential backup files and transaction log backups based on a user-defined period (either the file age or the date).

The backup retention will never delete:

  • The backup files, if there are mixed backups in the same backup file. For example, if a user performs a backup of AdventureWorks and Pubs into the same mybackups.bak backup file.
  • The full backup, if there are associated differential or t-log backups in the backup set that are not eligible for cleanup.
  • File/FileGroup backups
  • File/FileGroup differential backups
  • Partial backups
  • Partial differential backups
  • Files that have the filesystem archive bit set (if that option is selected)

This topic covers:

, (@LogRetainDays = 1...365 | @LogExpiration = 'date_time')

@CopyOnlyBackups

Controls how LiteSpeed handles copy-only backups. This argument accepts one of the following values:

  • Default—LiteSpeed will ignore copy-only backups except on secondary replicas in AlwaysOn Availability groups, in which case it will allow deletions. This is the default behavior when the parameter is not specified.
  • Ignore—Copy-only backups are never deleted.
  • AllowDeletes—Copy-only backups are removed according to the specified retention options.

NOTES:

  • Transaction log backups are not considered dependent on copy-only full or copy-only tlog backups.
  • Copy-only transaction log backups will not mark other transaction log or full backups as having a dependent.
  • The values are not case-sensitive.

@database

Name of database to be backed up or restored.

This parameter specifies a database:

  • to be backed up (xp_backup_database and xp_slsFastCompression)

Cloud folders: "fff\; test123\"

@ProxyHost

The @ProxyHost argument is optional and specifies the name of the proxy host name that is running the proxy server.

note: If the @ProxyHost argument is not defined, then the LiteSpeed core engine checks the local .ini files for the proxy parameters. If the proxy parameters are not detected, then the LiteSpeed core engine connects directly to the proxy servers.

@ProxyLogin

The @ProxyLogin argument is optional and specifies the proxy server login credential.

note: If not defined, then the LiteSpeed core engine checks the local .ini files for the proxy parameters. If the proxy parameters are not detected, then the LiteSpeed core engine connects directly to the proxy servers.

@ProxyPassword

The @ProxyPassword argument is optional and specifies the proxy server password credential.

note: If the @ProxyPassword argument is not defined, then the LiteSpeed core engine checks the local .ini files for the proxy parameters. If the proxy parameters are not detected, then the LiteSpeed core engine connects directly to the proxy servers.

The @ProxyPasswordEnc argument is optional and specifies the encrypted proxy server password credential.

note: If the @ProxyPasswordEnc argument is not defined, then the LiteSpeed core engine checks the local .ini files for the proxy parameters. If the proxy parameters are not detected, then the LiteSpeed core engine connects directly to the proxy servers.

@ProxyPort

The @ProxyPort argument is optional and contains the port number of the proxy server. The TCP/IP port values can be 1-65535.

note: If the @ProxyPort argument is not defined, then the LiteSpeed core engine checks the local .ini files for the proxy parameters. If the proxy parameters are not detected, then the LiteSpeed core engine connects directly to the proxy servers.

@tsmclientownerpwd

Specifies the TSM client owner user password. Not required, if specified in the options file or if backing up with the Passwordaccess Generate option.

  1. 0 - Output information enabled (default).
  2. 1 - Output information disabled

Returns

0 (success) or non-zero (failure).

To capture the output message, run the following:
