Possible easy backup of TFS 2012 Express Edition?

I use the TFS 2012 Express version for personal use (I mainly use it to replicate my sources).

I had a brief overview of the documentation on backup strategies, and it seems like a hell of a job :( Are there any shortcuts available when I just wonder if my versions with versions can be backed up and restored?

Backing up made easy with TFS Power Tools 2012 "Team Foundation Backup".

It essentially creates a seamless process for backing up / restoring TFS databases.

The information provided in response is based on the standard release of TFS, not TFS 2012 Express. I looked all over the internet and found only scripts that do this manually. I installed Power Tools Update 1 ( Visual Studio Team Foundation Server 2012 Update 1 Power Tools.msi ) and nothing has changed in the console.

Here is an alternative way: Backing up TFS 2012 Express

Use this link: Microsoft Team Foundation Server Power Tools to install Power Tools, including Backup Assistent

For any reason, Power-Tools from the Visual Studio Gallery does not include backup tools. See more in this SO answer .

If it just backs up TFS occasionally, I just download and install Microsoft® SQL Server® 2008 Management Studio Express .

In SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) ...

  • Connect to " . \ SQLEXPRESS "
  • Open the "Databases" node in the tree view on the left
  • Right-click on each database with the "TFS" part in its name and select the " Tasks> Backup ... " context menu item

To restore TFS later (for example, with a new installation of Windows), again in SSMS ...

  • Connect to " . \ SQLEXPRESS "
  • Open the "Databases" node in the tree view on the left
  • Right-click on each database with the "TFS" part in its name and select the menu item " Tasks> Restore> Database ... "
