AvailabilityGroupAutomatedBackupPreference Enumeration

SQL Server 2012

Specifies how replicas in the primary role are treated in the evaluation to pick the desired replica to perform a backup.

Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlEnum (in Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlEnum.dll)

public enum AvailabilityGroupAutomatedBackupPreference

	Member name	Description
	Primary	Backups occur only on the primary replica, wherever it is.
	SecondaryOnly	Backups occur only on the secondary replicas. If no secondary replicas are online, backup will not be performed.
	Secondary	Backups occur on the secondary replicas, except when the primary replica is the only replica online.
	None	No preference is stated for backup on replicas based on its current role. Only BackupPriority and online/connected states will be considered for replica choice.
	Unknown	The desired replica to perform a backup is unknown.
