Script Maintenance Plans Tasks

You can perform various database maintenance tasks from the command line. To use the SLSSQLMaint utility, change the directory until you are in the directory containing slssqlmaint.exe. (Usually, C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.SQL2008\MSSQL\Binn).

NOTE: You can generate scripts by opening tasks in the LiteSpeed UI Console and clicking View T-SQL. About Creating Maintenance Plans

Arguments

-Argument	Description
-AdaptiveCompression <value>	Automatically selects the optimal compression level based on CPU usage or Disk IO. For more information, see Compression Methods. You can tell Adaptive Compression to optimize backups either for size or for speed. This argument accepts one of the following values: Size Speed
-AFFINITY <mask>	Specifies the affinity mask for the process. The mask is a 64-bit integer value. By default, it is 0 and will utilize all CPUs. For more information, see Processor Affinity.
-AltBkpDir <path>	Specifies the directory where to search for the backup file.
-Attached <file_or_directory>	Specifies filepaths to include in both backup and restore operations. The filepath can be either a single file or a directory. If it is a directory, then LiteSpeed recursively includes all files and subdirectories. All attached files are encrypted and compressed, with all pertinent backup parameters supported. This feature works for disk, tape, TSM, and Double Click Restore as well. You can supply multiple instances of this argument. When used within the context of a restore operation, the path parameter can be expanded to include a new destination. This form will take the syntax of <file_path> to <new_file_path>. The new filepath can be used to specify a new location but cannot rename a file. This argument only restores the attached files. It does not restore the database, just the files that were attached to that backup. NOTES: The original entire directory path need not be supplied (e.g. c: to c:\testadSattsm is allowed). c:\testad to testadr would restore all files in directory c:\testad to c:\testadr.
-BackupEsc	This option causes LiteSpeed to issue a full backup, if one of the following problems is discovered in the current backup set: The full backup is missing. A differential backup is missing from the backup set (excludes backups automatically removed after the specified retention period). LSN verification fails in the backup set. Verify operation fails on full or differential backup. Differential backup fails for reasons other than out-of-disk . NOTE: If a problem is detected and a full backup is created through escalation, an error will be returned.
-BackupKey <encryption_password>	Type: Varchar Value used to generate the encryption key for the encryption algorithm. If you do not supply encryption key, then the program will not encrypt the backup. If you use the wrong encryption key, the restore will fail. Caution: When encrypting data, take care not to lose the encryption key; a backup cannot be restored or recovered without the original encryption key. Example of key: 'Mypassword'
-BkExt <extension>	Specifies the extension of the backup files.
-BkFileName	Specifies that each path specified includes the filename.
-BkUpDB	Specifies the database backup type.
-BkUpLog	Specifies the tlog backup type.
-BkUpMedia <value>	Specifies the backup destination. This argument accepts one of the following values: DISK TAPE TSM TSMArchive
-BkUpOnlyIfClean	Specifies that the backup occurs only if any specified checks did not find problems with the data.
-BUFFERCOUNT	Specifies the number of SQL Server buffers available for a LiteSpeed operation. The default value is set by SQL Server.
-CkAl
-CkAlNoIdx	(Legacy plans)
-CkCat
-CkDB	(Legacy plans)Checks the allocation and structural integrity of tables and indexes.
-CkDBNoIdx	(Legacy plans)Checks the allocation and structural integrity of tables.
-CKDBREPAIR	Checks data and index linkage with fast repairs.
-CleanHis <values>	Enables the Cleanup History task. This argument accepts one or more of the following: <number><time_unit>—Removes historical data older than specified time period. You can use one of the following time units: HOURS DAYS WEEKS MONTHS YEARS BKUP—Deletes back up and restore history. JBS—Deletes SQL Server Agent jobs history. MAINTPLN—Deletes Maintenance plans history. Activity—Deletes LiteSpeed activity from the Local Repository. CentralActivity—Deletes LiteSpeed activity from the Central Repository. PurgeInfo—Deletes any information for deleted databases. LogShipping—Deletes log shipping history. Status—Deletes status history (Job, DTS, Maint Plans). ShrinkLog—Shrinks the repository databases log files.
-COMMENT <comment>	Type: String Appends a user comment to the backup. This argument accepts variables. For more information, see LiteSpeed Variables.
-COMPRESSIONLEVEL <value>	Specifies the compression level for the backup. Valid values are 0 through 8. 0 bypasses the compression routines. The remaining values of 1 through 8 specify compression with increasingly aggressive computation. 2 is the default value for disk backups and 7 is the default value for cloud backups. When choosing a compression level, it is best to try various options using your equipment and data to determine the best option for your environment. Use the Backup Analyzer to test the performance of different compression levels. For more information, see Test Optimal Backup Settings. NOTE: If both the compression level and Adaptive Compression option are passed in, LiteSpeed will not error out and will select and use Adaptive Compression.
-CrBkSubDir	Creates a subdirectory for each database.
-CRYPTLEVEL <value>	Specifies the encryption level. This argument accepts one of the following values: 0—40-bit RC2 1—56 bit RC2 2—112 bit RC2 3—128 bit RC2 4—168 bit 3DES 5—128 bit RC4 6—128 bit AES 7—192 bit AES 8—256 bit AES 9—MS_AES_128 10—MS_AES_192 11—MS_AES_256
-D <names_group_or_patterns>	Specifies the database names or the following built-in database groups to include in the backup: "ALL DATABASES" "ALL SYSTEM DATABASES" "ALL USER DATABASES" Alternately, you can specify wildcard or regular expression patterns using one of the following formats: Mask:"<wildcard_expression>" Regex:"<regular_expression>" For more information, see Use Wildcard and Regular Expressions in LiteSpeed.
-DataDelta <value>	Specifies the minimum amount of database changes required for the full backup. Accepted values are 1-99, the default value is 35.
-DblClick	Creates a Double Click Restore executable. This argument accepts one of the following values: 1—Creates one Double-Click Restore executable file. Note the following warning: The executable may be greater than 4GB for large databases. Windows Server is unable to run executable files larger than 4GB. However, the file will be convertible/restorable by LiteSpeed file. 2—Creates a Double Click Restore loader in the same location. (Default) For more information, see Double Click Restore Executables.
-Default <format>	Specifies the default file format, usually %D_%T_%Y-%m-%d-%H%M%S.%EXT%, where: %D—Database name %T—Backup type (Full, Diff or Log) %Y-%m-%d-%H%M%S—Date and time %EXT%—File extension For more information, see LiteSpeed Variables.

-DelUseAge	Specifies the file age.
-DIFFERENTIAL	Specifies that the database or file backup should consist only of the portions of the database or file changed since the last full backup. A differential backup is usually smaller than a full backup. Use this option so that all individual log backups since the last full backup do not need to be applied.
-ENCRYPTIONKEY <key>	Type: Varchar Value used to generate the encryption key for the encryption algorithm. If you do not supply encryption key, then the program will not encrypt the backup. If you use the wrong encryption key, the restore will fail. Caution: When encrypting data, take care not to lose the encryption key; a backup cannot be restored or recovered without the original encryption key. Example of key: 'Mypassword'
-Exclude <values>	Excludes databases. This argument accepts one or more of the following: Selected—This option will exclude databases supplied with the -D argument. LogShippng ReadOnly Offline Deleted Mask:"<wildcard_expression>"—This option will exclude databases that match the specified expression.

-Reliability <value>	Specifies whether LiteSpeed should perform checksums before writing to media and whether it should continue on error. This argument accepts one of the following values: 1—Causes checksums to be verified when a LiteSpeed backup is created, LiteSpeed does not continue on error. 2—Causes the backup be executed on error, checksums are not verified. 3—Causes the backup be executed despite encountering an invalid backup checksum.
-ReorgIDX	Defragments and compacts existing indexes to improve performance. (Legacy plans)
-RequireFull	Checks if the expected full backup exists when backing up to separate files and returns a failure message if it is not found. If the full backup file does not exist, it performs a full backup. If the full backup file does exist, the decision to perform a new full or a differential backup will depend on other conditions specified.
-Retaindays <number_of_days>	Specifies a number of days to retain the backup. LiteSpeed will not overwrite this file for this number of days.
-RmUnusedSpace <max_size> <free_space_to_remain>	(Legacy plans) Reduces the size of data and log files in a database that grow beyond a specified size.

-SmartDiff <number>DAYS	Specifies the minimum number of days since last full backup required to perform full backup. The default value is 14.
-SupportComputedColumn	Run DBCC maintenance commands on computed columns.
-T	Uses a trusted connection (to the server) instead of requiring a password.
-THREADS <number_of_threads>	Type: Integer Determines the number of threads used for the backup or restore. You will achieve the best results by specifying multiple threads, but the exact value depends on several factors including: processors available, affinity setting, compression level, encryption settings, IO device speed, and SQL Server responsiveness. The default is n-1 threads, where n is the number of processors.
-THROTTLE <value>	Specifies the maximum CPU usage allowed. The argument accepts an integer value between 1 and 100. The default value is 100. This is the percentage of the total amount of CPU usage (across all enabled processors) available. TIP: Before you start tuning the CPU Throttle or Affinity parameters to adjust backup performance, try limiting the number of threads. If you decide to use an affinity value other than default, it is recommended that you limit the threading as well. You may also want to consider using Adaptive Compression to maintain backup performance. For more information, see Adaptive Compression.
-To <names>	(Legacy plans) Specifies operator's name.
-TSMClientNode <node_name>	Specifies the TSM server LiteSpeed connects to during backups and restores. Not required, if specified in the options file or if backing up with the Passwordaccess Generate option.
