I am trying to login mixed mode to windows mod please explain this issue in sqlserver.

This might be because of these two things,

1. First check if the folder on the network drive ( other machine) is shared on not. if it is not shared, it cannot be opened.

2. Normally when you create a shared folder, you do not give full permissions over the folder to others, to write and make changes, if that is the case then change the properties of the shared folder,

right click shared folder-> properties->sharing, check if “share this folder is checked and below that click permissions tab and then select full control and select change, click ok.

Now do the backup

BACKUP DATABASE database_name
to DISK = ‘\\computer_name\shared_folder_name\backupcopy.BAK’
WITH FORMAT

It should work now.

Hope this helps.
Imran.

Above code is for multiplexing on same server, that can be done by

BACKUP DATABASE AdventureWorks
TO DISK = ‘c:\AdventureWorksBackup.bak’,
DISK = ‘d:\AdventureWorksBackupCopy.bak’
WITH FORMAT

My problem is that i have to mirror it on different server which is on same network but there is no dns. When is use below given command it raise error

BACKUP DATABASE AdventureWorks
TO DISK = ‘c:\AdventureWorksBackup.bak’
MIRROR
TO DISK = ‘\\Myserver\ABCdb\BackupCopy.bak’
WITH FORMAT

error is

Msg 3201, Level 16, State 1, Procedure BackupABCdb, Line 9
Cannot open backup device ‘\\Myserver\ABCdb\BackupCopy.bak’. Operating system error 5(Access is denied.).
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Procedure BackupABCdb, Line 9
BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally

So, if possible kindly tell me the solution for this problem.
thanks
