使用 C# 和 SMO，如何将备份设备添加到 SQL Server？

Question

我知道如何使用 C# 和 SMO 在 SQL Server 上创建文件备份：

public void BackupDatabase(Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server server, 
                               string databaseName, string backupFilename,
                               string backupName, string backupDescription) {

 Backup backup = new Backup();
 backup.Devices.AddDevice(backupFilename, DeviceType.File);
 backup.Database = databaseName;
 backup.Action = BackupActionType.Database;
 backup.BackupSetDescription = backupDescription;
 backup.BackupSetName = backupName;
 backup.Incremental = false;
 backup.LogTruncation = BackupTruncateLogType.Truncate;
 backup.Initialize = true; // supposed to overwrite
 backup.SqlBackup(server);
}

我不知道（也找不到）如何将文件 BackupDevice 添加到 SQL 服务器。

Answer 1

使用BackupDevice.Create:

Server server = new Server("localhost");
BackupDevice newDevice = new BackupDevice();
newDevice.Parent = server;
newDevice.Name = "newDevice";
newDevice.BackupDeviceType = BackupDeviceType.Disk;
newDevice.PhysicalLocation = "c:\temp\newdevice.bak";
newDevice.Create();
