The SQL Backup GUI does not not need to be licensed. You can install any version you require, and on however many machines you want. / comments

Try restarting the SQL Backup Agent service for that SQL Server instance. / comments

When you say it didn't work, do you mean the authentication step failed, or that the transfer process failed entirely, or the file was transferred but there was no difference in speed? Thanks. / comments

Try deleting the instance from the list of registered servers, then add the instance but this time select '1 week' for the amount of native backup and restore history to import. Is the activity history then displayed correctly? / comments

Could you please provide the steps to reproduce the error? I created a job to back up some databases to run every 15 minutes. After some scheduled runs, I modified to schedule to back up every 45 minutes, which pushed the next run time to after the earlier scheduled run time. The schedule was still enabled within SSMS. Thanks. / comments

You first need to install the SQL Backup server components on the SQL Server instance you want to restore the database on. Next, you need to run the restore using the SQL Backup extended stored procedure e.g. EXEC master..sqlbackup '-sql "RESTORE DATABASE att2000SQL FROM DISK = [c:\db.sqb]"'<br>The command you ran failed because SQL Server does not recognize SQL Backup-created backup files. / comments

SQL Backup uses its own compression engine to compress backups, and does not depend on SQL Server's compression support. You can use SQL Backup to create compressed backups on SQL Server 2000 instances and all subsequent versions. The only time SQL Backup relies on SQL Server's compression engine is when you need to compress TDE-enabled databases. In these cases, SQL Backup's compression engine is unable to decrypt and compress the TDE-enabled backup data effectively, and thus relies on SQL Server's support to compress TDE-enabled databases. / comments

Hi, no, it's not possible to upload to 2 different cloud storage providers using SQL Backup at this time. / comments

It isn't possible to set up two SQL Backup Agent services to serve a single SQL Server instance. There would be a conflict with the inter-process communication objects used for the SQL Backup extended stored procedure and the SQL Backup Agent. You would probably need to use third-party tools that can detect when a new backup file has been created, and upload the files to the appropriate cloud storage provider. / comments
