Thanks for your inquiry with SQL Data Generator.

While we recommend creating a full backup of the database, it doesn't need to be offline in order to have it be used by SQL Data Generator: https://documentation.red-gate.com/sdg/worked-example-setting-up-the-data-generator

Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.
