# SQLVDI for Linux
|
||
This folder contains the latest files and samples required to build a SQL Server VDI based backup/restore application for Linux.
|
||
|
||
## Files available
|
||
1. vdi.h
|
||
2. vdierror.h
|
||
3. vdipipesample.cpp
|
||
4. MAKEFILE
|
||
|
||
## Known Bugs
|
||
|
||
There is a problem with VDF_LikeDisk and VDF_RandomAccess where the backup/restore is aborted unexpectedly.
|
||
|
||
## Steps
|
||
|
||
1. Install the mssql-server and mssql-tools packages
|
||
|
||
[Install SQL Server on Linux](http://docs.microsoft.com/sql/linux/sql-server-linux-setup)
|
||
[Install SQL Server tools on Linux](http://docs.microsoft.com/sql/linux/sql-server-linux-setup-tools)
|
||
|
||
1. Install the clang and uuid-dev packages in order to build the sample.
|
||
|
||
Example (for Ubuntu):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo apt-get install clang
|
||
sudo apt-get install uuid-dev
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Create a symbolic link to sqlcmd in /usr/bin
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo ln -s /opt/mssql-tools/bin/sqlcmd /usr/bin/sqlcmd
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Copy the vdi sample files to a directory on your Linux machine.
|
||
|
||
1. Run make to build the sample code
|
||
|
||
1. Run the vdi client as the mssql user or follow these instructions:
|
||
|
||
- Add the user running the vdi client to mssql group `sudo usermod -a -G mssql vdiuser`.
|
||
- Add the mssql user to the vdi client user's group `sudo usermod -a -G vdiuser mssql`.
|
||
- Reboot
|
||
|
||
1. Run the following command to issue a database backup of pubs:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/mssql/lib" ./vdipipesample B D pubs sa <SQLSAPASSWORD> /tmp/pubs.bak
|
||
```
