SQLBackup 5 using the COPY_ONLY option

ChrisAVWood

Hi,

SQL2005 intriduced the with COPY_ONLY option. I can see that SQLBackup 5.3 has COPY_ONLY as a parameter but there is no actual description in Help. Is the SQLBackup COPY_ONLY option making what MS calls a COPY_ONLY backup and not affecting the LSN and/or backup chain? If this is the case then we probably have a good reason to use it.

Thanks

Chris

Yes, the COPY_ONLY option in SQL Backup 5 gets passed on to SQL Server, and does exactly what it was designed to do for SQL Server 2005.

Just wanted to make sure.
