Re: TDP SQL backup fails but is reported as a success ??

2017-01-20 Thread Tom Alverson
One more question: We have a few SQL servers with multiple SQL instances, so the batch file runs the backup command separately for each instance. This means that only the LAST backup will send an errorlevel to the scheduler. Is there some way to combine these errorlevels (maybe add them together)
