The SkipTapeHeader property enables or disables backup operation logic that verifies that correct media is loaded.
object.SkipTapeHeader [= value]
| Part | Description |
|---|---|
| object | Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list |
| value | True or False |
If True, a media name recorded on the media is not checked. The backup set is appended to the media.
If False (default), a recorded media name is checked. When using SQL-DMO to perform a backup, provide the media name by using the MediaName property.
Note SQL-DMO implements backup media initialization by using the Initialize property. When Initialize is True, SkipTapeHeader enables or disables logic that prevents overwrite of unexpired backup sets on a media. For more information, see BACKUP.
