DatabaseFileGroups Property

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The DatabaseFileGroups property identifies filegroups targeted by a backup or restore operation.

Syntax

object
.DatabaseFileGroups [=value]

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list

  • value
    A SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) multistring identifying one or more filegroups by name

Data Type

String

Modifiable

Read/write

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetDatabaseFileGroups(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);
HRESULT SetDatabaseFileGroups(SQLDMO_LPCSTR NewValue);

Note

SQL-DMO strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference using SysFreeString.

Remarks

Setting DatabaseFileGroups directs backup or restore processing to include only those filegroups listed.

Set DatabaseFileGroups to an empty string to reset processing and target the entire database.
