So the scenario is that, apparently, it adds a bak to the file when it is created, is it possible to stop it from doing this and just back up the current version?
here is my code
Server backFromServer = new Server(@"server ip add");
backFromServer.ConnectionContext.LoginSecure = false;
backFromServer.ConnectionContext.Login = "uname";
backFromServer.ConnectionContext.Password = "psd";
Database backFromDb = new Database();
backFromDb = backFromServer.Databases["dbname"];
Backup bkpDatabase = new Backup();
bkpDatabase.Action = BackupActionType.Database;
bkpDatabase.Database = backFromDb.Name;
bkpDatabase.Incremental = false;
bkpDatabase.LogTruncation = BackupTruncateLogType.Truncate;
BackupDeviceItem bkpDevice = new BackupDeviceItem(@"D:\backupfolder\backup.bak",
DeviceType.File);
bkpDatabase.Devices.Add(bkpDevice);
bkpDatabase.SqlBackup(backFromServer);
