DBA - Backup Multiple Databases from Local and Linked Server (Compression Enabled) and Send Email Notification

Scenario: Download Script

Let's say we have to backup multiple databases from one of the server and also few other databases for which we have created on linked server. After each of the backup we want to send an email with time taken by the database backup.


Solution: 

Here is the code that can be used to backup database from Local Server as well from Linked Server.


--DECLARE VARIABLES
DECLARE @DataBaseName VARCHAR(500)
DECLARE @BackupFolderPath VARCHAR(250)
DECLARE @BackupFileName VARCHAR(500)
DECLARE @TimeStamp VARCHAR(20)
DECLARE @ServerName NVARCHAR(500)

--Specify database backup directory
SET @BackupFolderPath = 'C:\MonthlyBackups\'


--TimeStamp
SELECT @TimeStamp = CONVERT(VARCHAR(20), Getdate(), 112) + '_'
                    + Replace(CONVERT(VARCHAR(20), Getdate(), 108), ':', '')

DECLARE db_cursor CURSOR FOR
  --Include All Database here those needed to be backedup with ServerName
  SELECT DatabaseName,ServerName
  FROM   (
SELECT 'TESTDB' AS DataBaseName, 'local' AS ServerName
          UNION ALL
          SELECT 'DBNAME' AS DatabaseName, 'LinkserverName' AS ServerName
        ) DB

OPEN db_cursor

FETCH NEXT FROM db_cursor INTO @DataBaseName,@ServerName

WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
  BEGIN
      DECLARE @SQL NVARCHAR(MAX)
      DECLARE @STARTTIME DATETIME
      DECLARE @ENDTIME DATETIME
      DECLARE @SEC INT
      DECLARE @BackupTimeTaken VARCHAR(50)

IF @ServerName='local'
BEGIN
      SET @BackupFileName = @BackupFolderPath + @DataBaseName + '_'
                            + @TimeStamp + '.BAK'
      SET @SQL=' BACKUP DATABASE ' + @DataBaseName
               + ' TO DISK = N''' + @BackupFileName + '''WITH COMPRESSION'
PRINT @SQL
END
      IF @ServerName<>'local'
      BEGIN
      SET @BackupFileName = @BackupFolderPath + @DataBaseName + '_'
                            + @TimeStamp + '.BAK'
      SET @SQL=@ServerName+'.master.dbo.sp_executesql N''BACKUP DATABASE '+@DataBaseName+' TO DISK = N''''' + @BackupFileName + ''''' WITH COMPRESSION'''
      PRINT @SQL
      END
      SET @STARTTIME=GETDATE()
    EXEC ( @SQL)
      SET @ENDTIME=GETDATE()
SET @SEC=(SELECT DATEDIFF(SECOND,@StartTime,@EndTime))
SET @BackupTimeTaken=(select convert(varchar(5),@sec/3600)+':'+convert(varchar(5),@sec%3600/60)+':'+convert(varchar(5),(@sec%60)))


--Build Notification
   
    DECLARE @Mail_Profile_Name VARCHAR(100)
    DECLARE @MessageBody NVARCHAR(1000)
    DECLARE @RecipientsList NVARCHAR(500)
    DECLARE @MailSubject NVARCHAR(500)
    DECLARE @ServerFullName NVARCHAR(500)
    IF @ServerName='local'
    SET @ServerFullName=@@SERVERNAME
    ELSE
    SET @ServerFullName=@ServerName
 
 
 
    --SET VARIABLES FOR NOTIFICATION
    SET @Mail_Profile_Name='YourMailProfile'
    SET @RecipientsList='aamir.nmhu@yahoo.com'
    SET @MailSubject='Database::'+@DataBaseName+ ' backup completed successfully from Server::'+@ServerFullName
    SET @MessageBody='Hi All,'+CHAR(13)+' The database ::'+@DataBaseName +' backup is completed successfully from Server::'+@ServerFullName
    +CHAR(13)+'TO Folder Path::  '+@BackupFileName+CHAR(13)
    +'Time taken for backup(HH:MM:SS):: '+@BackupTimeTaken+CHAR(13)+CHAR(13)+'Thank you'+CHAR(13)+'Technology Team'
 
    EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
    @profile_name = @Mail_Profile_Name,
    @recipients = @RecipientsList,
    @body = @MessageBody,
    @subject = @MailSubject;

      FETCH NEXT FROM db_cursor INTO @DataBaseName,@ServerName
  END

CLOSE db_cursor

DEALLOCATE db_cursor


--To get the profile Account
--select * from msdb..sysmail_profile
