Description:
How to backup a Virtual SQL Server using NMSQL or NMM SQL VDI command line syntax
or 'nsrsqlsv'?

Command line syntax fails for 'nsrsqlsv' when performing manual backup of a
Clustered virtual SQL Server instance.

Usage: nsrsqlsv [<options>] {path}

options: [-CGjqRTvkuHXZ] [-s server] [-N name] [-b pool] [-g group]

[-S count] [-l level] [-m masquerade] [-U user [-P passwd]]

[[-A virtual-server] | [-c client]] [-a device interface=data domain] [-f

aes] [-w browse] [-y retention]

[[-A virtual-server] | [-c client]] [-a De-duplication backup=yes] [-a De-

duplication node=<Avamar Node Name>] [-a De-duplication client name=<client>] [-f
aes] [-w browse] [-y retention]

[[-A virtual-server] | [-c client]] [-z FEDERATED_SLAVE=true]

path: d-path | i-path

d-path: MSSQL: | [MSSQL:]s-path [[MSSQL:]s-path [...]]

i-path: MSSQL$inst-name: | MSSQL$inst-name:s-path [...]

s-path: database | database. | database.filegroup |

database.filegroup. | database.filegroup.file

To use 'nsrsqlsv' in a Clustered SQL Server instance requires specific parameters.

The two most important ones are:

-A virtualservername
Save Set name cannot incldue the Instance name

Wrong Save Set MSSQL$instancename:databasename

Correct Save Set MSSQL:databasename

Resolution:
Cluster setups for the SQL VDI backups using Networker Module for Microsoft (NMM)
or older NetWorker Module for SQL Server (NMSQL) requires the save set name:

MSSQL: * without * the named instance name.

Unlike Stand-alone SQL Server Named instances which require the instance name in
Save set like this:

MSSQL$Instancename:

EXAMPLE:

Virtual SQL Server name = er-sqlvir

SQL Server instance name = sqlvir

Physical cluster node name = er-sqldb1

CORRECT SYNTAX:

nsrsqlsv -b Default -v -s er-bup -A er-sqlvir -c er-sqldb1.dbs.adroot.local

MSSQL:msdb

WRONG SYNTAX:

nsrsqlsv -b Default -v -s er-bup -A er-sqlvir -c er-sqldb1.dbs.adroot.local

MSSQL$SQLVIR:msdb

Reason # Has Named instance in Save Set

nsrsqlsv -b Default -v -s er-bup -A er-sqldb1 -c er-sqldb1.dbs.adroot.local

MSSQL:msdb

Reason # has physical host in �CA

nsrsqlsv -b Default -v -s er-bup -c er-sqlvirdb1 MSSQL:msdb

Reason # has virtual host in �Cc
