script for check backup SQL SERVER

I'm not sure if I follow exaclty what you're wanting, but take a look at this:

/* Backups;  are they being done? */
SELECT d.name, MAX(b.backup_finish_date) AS last_backup_finish_date
FROM master.sys.databases d
LEFT OUTER JOIN msdb.dbo.backupset b ON d.name = b.database_name AND b.type = 'D'
WHERE d.database_id NOT IN (2, 3)  -- Bonus points if you know what that means
GROUP BY d.name
ORDER BY d.name

/*  Backups; Where are they written to? */
SELECT TOP 100 physical_device_name, * FROM msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily ORDER BY media_set_id DESC
SELECT * FROM msdb..backupmediafamily where physical_device_name like '%msdb%'

Hi,,

SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE @FileName VARCHAR(255)
DECLARE @File_Exists INT
DECLARE @DBname sysname

--get list of files to check
DECLARE FileNameCsr CURSOR
READ_ONLY
FOR  
   SELECT physical_device_name, sd.name
   FROM msdb..backupmediafamily bmf
   INNER JOIN msdb..backupset bms ON bmf.media_set_id = bms.media_set_id
   INNER JOIN master..sysdatabases sd ON bms.database_name = sd.name
   AND bms.backup_start_date = (SELECT MAX(backup_start_date) FROM [msdb]..[backupset] b2
                                   WHERE bms.database_name = b2.database_name AND b2.type = 'D')
   WHERE sd.name NOT IN ('Pubs','tempdb','Northwind', 'Adventureworks')

BEGIN TRY
   OPEN FileNameCsr

   FETCH NEXT FROM FileNameCsr INTO @FileName, @DBname
   WHILE (@@fetch_status <> -1)
   BEGIN
       IF (@@fetch_status <> -2)
       BEGIN
           EXEC Master.dbo.xp_fileexist @FileName, @File_Exists OUT
       
           --if the file is not found, print out a message
           IF @File_Exists = 0 --0 means file is not found, 1 means it is found
               PRINT 'File Not Found: ' + @FileName + ' -- for database: ' + @DBName
       END
   
   FETCH NEXT FROM FileNameCsr INTO @FileName, @DBName
   END
   
END TRY

BEGIN CATCH
    SELECT
        ERROR_NUMBER() AS ErrorNumber
        ,ERROR_SEVERITY() AS ErrorSeverity
        ,ERROR_STATE() AS ErrorState
        ,ERROR_PROCEDURE() AS ErrorProcedure
        ,ERROR_LINE() AS ErrorLine
        ,ERROR_MESSAGE() AS ErrorMessage;
END CATCH


CLOSE FileNameCsr
DEALLOCATE FileNameCsr
GO

yes, but how can I start a backup if the last_backup_finish_date is > 24 hours.
Thanks

here's another good one:
WITH Backups AS (
    SELECT
        server_name,
        database_name,
        MAX(backup_finish_date) AS LastBackupFinishDate
    FROM msdb.dbo.backupset
    WHERE type = 'D' AND is_damaged = 0 and server_name = @@SERVERNAME
    GROUP BY server_name, database_name
)  
SELECT
D.database_id,
D.name as database_name,
B.LastBackupFinishDate
FROM sys.databases D
LEFT JOIN Backups B on D.name = B.database_name42



let me look into the subsequent backup, based on last_backup_finish_date

Hi ,

check this one

yes, but how can I add a backup command in the script if the last_backup_finish_date is > 24 hours.
Thanks
