Error description
For Microsoft SQL server database backups using the Spectrum Protect Plus GUI Ad hoc backup wizard, in the section 'Select source type'->'Select source', the SQL databases names are listed without their owning instance name. This can become confusing when having multiple Microsoft SQL server instances and needing to save system databases like 'Msdb' which will appear as many times (as?) there are instances. IBM Spectrum Protect Plus Versions Affected: IBM Spectrum Protect Plus 10.1.5 to 10.1.5 efix4 Initial Impact: Low Additional Keywords: SPP, SPPLUS, TS003626282, duplicate, same, similar, display
Local fix
To be sure to select the intended database for backup, got to : 'Manage Protection'->'Applications'->'SQL' Then click on the needed Microsoft SQL Server instance name and select the desired database name. Associate the SLA and options and click 'run'.
