|\n|--------|------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| Image | See [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/bbtsoftwareag/mssql-backup). |\n| Source | See [GitHub](https://github.com/bbtsoftware/docker-mssql-backup). |\n\n## Usage\n\nThis container can create backups on a [Microsoft SQL Server] container.\n\n**NOTE:**\nThe backup is written to a directory `/backup` inside the [Microsoft SQL Server] container, not to a volume in the backup container.\nFor using the cleanup feature attach the same `/backup` volume in the `bbtsoftwareag/mssql-backup` container.\n\n### Tags\n\n| Tag | Description | Size

Environment variable | Default value | Description |\n|----------------------|---------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| DB_SERVER | `mssql` | Name or address of the database server to backup. Normally this should be the name of the [Microsoft SQL Server] service. |\n| DB_USER | `SA` | User used to connect to the database server. |\n| DB_PASSWORD | | Password used to connect to the database server. |\n| DB_NAMES | | Names of the databases for which a backup should be created. |\n| TZ | | Timezone to use. |\n| CRON_SCHEDULE | `0 1 * * sun` | Cron schedule for running backups. NOTE: There is no check if there's already a backup running when starting the backup job. Therefore time interval needs to be longer than the maximum expected backup time for all databases. |\n| BACKUP_CLEANUP | `false` | Set to \"true\" if you want to let the cronjob remove files older than $BACKUP_AGE days |\n| BACKUP_AGE | `7` | Number of days to keep backups in backup directory |\n| SKIP_BACKUP_LOG | `false` | Skip step to backup the transaction log . |\n| PACK | | Possible values: `tar`, `zip`. If defined, compresses the output files into a single `.tar.gz` (or `zip`)-File. |\n| ZIP_PASSWORD | | Sets the password for the zip to the given value. Only works if `PACK` is set to `zip` |\n| PUSH_REMOTE_MODE | | The possible values `move` or `copy` activates pushing the backup files to a mapped remote directory. The volume `remote` must be mapped. |\n| SMTP_HOST | | If this is set, email reporting is enabled by sending the results of the backup process to `MAIL_TO`. You pretty much have to define all the other `SMTP_*` variables, when the host is defined. |\n| SMTP_PORT | | The port of the SMTP server |\n| SMTP_USER | | The username used to login against the SMTP server |\n| SMTP_PASS | | The password for connecting to the SMTP server |\n| SMTP_FROM | | The E-mail address from which mails should be sent from |\n| SMTP_TLS | `on` | Whether TLS should be used when connecting to the SMTP server |\n| MAIL_TO | | The target E-mail address for receiving mail reports |\n\n## Examples\n\n### Docker Compose\n\nThe following example will create backups of the databases `MyFirstDatabaseToRestore` and `MySecondDatabaseToRestore`\nrunning inside the `db` container every day at 01.00 CEST and stores it in the `/storage/backup` directory on the host machine.\n\n```yaml\nversion: '3.7'\n\nservices:\n db:\n image: mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server\n volumes:\n - /storage/backup:/backup\n environment:\n - ACCEPT_EULA=Y\n - MSSQL_PID=Express\n - SA_PASSWORD=MySecre(12)tPassword\n networks:\n - default\n backup:\n image: bbtsoftwareag/mssql-backup\n # for using the cleanup feature, use the backup volume from db.\n # volumes:\n # - /storage/backup:/backup\n environment:\n - TZ=Europe/Zurich\n - DB_SERVER=db\n - DB_USER=SA\n - DB_PASSWORD=MySecre(12)tPassword\n - \"DB_NAMES=\n MyFirstDatabaseToRestore\n MySecondDatabaseToRestore\"\n - CRON_SCHEDULE=0 1 * * *\n networks:\n - default\n```\n\n### Example environment\n\nWe added a small docker environment in the [example](https://github.com/bbtsoftware/docker-mssql-backup/tree/develop/example)\nsubdirectory for `development` or `tests` with a own [readme](https://github.com/bbtsoftware/docker-mssql-backup/blob/develop/example/README.md) file.\n\n## Discussion\n\nFor questions and to discuss ideas \u0026 feature requests, use the [GitHub discussions on the BBT Software docker-mssql-backup repository](https://github.com/bbtsoftware/docker-mssql-backup/discussions).\n\n[![Join in the discussion on the BBT Software docker-mssql-backup repository](https://img.shields.io/badge/GitHub-Discussions-green?logo=github)](https://github.com/bbtsoftware/docker-mssql-backup/discussions)\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are welcome.
