You will need to use the SQL Server Enterprise Manager to backup your MS SQL Server 2000 based Globodox DB.
For a complete backup you will need to take a backup of...
The Master DB i.e. the MainDB and its Cache file i.e the MainDB_cache
And all your Globodox DBs along with their cache files
For each Globodox DB, you must also backup it's linked folder which contains the File Store, by zipping it.
In the below example we are backing up the MainDB.
On SQL Server machine we will back-up the...
MainDB and the MainDB_cache
AND
In the folder where Globodox Databases are located (this is usually the C:\Globodox Databases folder), we will back-up the MainDB sub-folder.
