How to take SQL Server database backup using Jenkins daily?

Question

I've tried to take backup using Windows batch command. It's working, but I need to take automatic backups with different name for 7 days as day1.bak , day2.bak , ...

SQLCMD -S xx.xx.xxx.xx -U test -P xxxx 
       -Q "BACKUP  DATABASE test TO DISK='C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL13.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Backup\test4.bak'"

Is there is a Jenkins plugin to do this automatically?

Answer 1

set mydate=%date:~10%%date:~4,2%%date:~7,2%
set mytime=%time:~0,2%%time:~3,2%%time:~6,2%

forfiles /P 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL13.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Backup\'  /S /M *.bak /D -7 /C "cmd /c del @PATH"  // Delete all file less than 7 days


sqlcmd -S .\sqlexpress -Q "BACKUP DATABASE [YourDataBaseName] TO  DISK = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL13.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Backup\%mydate%_%mytime%.bak' WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT,  NAME = N'YourDataBaseName-Full Database Backup', SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD,  STATS = 10"

Note: filename equals date-time now by using both variable mydate & mytime
