Backing Up Data › Global Backup Options › Backup Manager Agent Options › Agent for Microsoft SQL Server Options › Other Options

Other Options

From the Global Agent Options tab, you can specify the following additional options:

• Include Checksum Generated by SQL Server--Includes error checking information from Microsoft SQL Server, which can be used to validate the integrity of the backed-up data during restore. This option requires SQL Server 2005 or later and is ignored when set in the Global Agent Options dialog for SQL Server 7.0 or 2000 databases.
• SQL Native Backup Compression--This option applies to only SQL Server 2008 (Enterprise) and later versions. If enabled, this option directs Arcserve Backup to use SQL Server database backup compression settings, resulting in faster backup times and smaller sessions.

From the local Agent Option dialog, you can choose to Override Global Options. This setting lets you choose a backup method and database consistency check that applies to only the database selected for this job.
