Feature Enhancement

I would be nice if the GUI was updated to be able to handle all of the options availble in the Backup Command, such as copying to muliple locations (COPYTO), setting different retention times (ERASEFILES_REMOTE), and to delete using the same scheme as the primary file (FILEOPTIONS) and just to be able to select the number of files when splitting the backup accoss multiple files instead of adding the multiple files (FILECOUNT).

Thanks!

Jeff

    Thank you for your suggestions.

    I have added details of your forum post to an existing feature request, SB-3132 GUI: FILEOPTIONS extended argument - Request to be able to set the FILEOPTIONS argument using the GUI.

    Your request will hopefully appear in a later version of SQL Backup.

    Many Thanks
    Eddie

    Another vote for me, I don't think I've seen this in SQL Backup yet

    Recently I had to manually remove the
    FILECOUNT = 2
    string from the command so that I can backup to 1 file per DB, instead of 2 (which is the minimum I can change to in the GUI, cannot change to 1)
