How to execute store proc and create batch file for windows task scheduler or create a job in SQL server Agent.

Example1: Full backups of all databases in the local named instance of SQLEXPRESS by using Windows Authentication

// Sqlbackup.bat

sqlcmd -S .\EXPRESS –E -Q “EXEC sp_BackupDatabases @backupLocation=’D:\SQLBackups\’, @backupType=’F'”

Example2: Differential backups of all databases in the local named instance of SQLEXPRESS by using a SQLLogin and its password

// Sqlbackup.bat

sqlcmd -U SQLLogin -P password -S .\SQLEXPRESS -Q “EXEC sp_BackupDatabases @backupLocation =’D:\SQLBackups’, @BackupType=’D’”

Note: The SQLLogin shouldhave at least the Backup Operator role in SQL Server.

Example 3: Log backups of all databases in local named instance of SQLEXPRESS by using Windows Authentication

// Sqlbackup.bat

sqlcmd -S .\SQLEXPRESS -E -Q “EXEC sp_BackupDatabases @backupLocation=’D:\SQLBackups\’,@backupType=’L'”

Example 4: Full backups of the database USERDB in the local named instance of SQLEXPRESS by using Windows Authentication

// Sqlbackup.bat

sqlcmd -S .\SQLEXPRESS -E -Q “EXEC sp_BackupDatabases @backupLocation=’D:\SQLBackups\’, @databaseName=’USERDB’, @backupType=’F'”

Similarly, you can make a differential backup of USERDB by pasting in ‘D’ for the @backupType parameter and a log backup of USERDB by pasting in ‘L’ for the @backupType parameter.
