Hello,

yes SQL db backup is not possible for offline databases.

Just backup files which constitute the database - that should be one .mdf at least and one .ldf at least. Refer to SQL documentation or consult your dba.

Restore then would be in two steps:

- file-level restore or these files

- sp_attach_db action on these files

You need Application and Database license on the master server to enable MS-SQL policy type. Download the NBU for MS-SQL manual for detailed instructions. Links to manuals in Handy NBU Links in my signature.
