I am trying to insert the T-SQL script into my stored procedure that does a backup of all the databases. waht i need to accomplish in the script is to be able to pass teh name of the database and the path name dynamically to the sql statement. How do I pass those values in the script ?
I tried somethig like this but it errored out. Could you please advice.
EXECUTE master..sqlbackup N'-SQL "BACKUP DATABASE "'+ @DBNAME + '" TO DISK = "' +@physicalName+ '"
WITH COMPRESSION = 1, ERASEFILES = 2, VERIFY"'
Thanks,
Dora.
