How to prepare SQL Server for Weekly backups for Hosted RENXT

Nancy Dougherty

Hi.  I'm trying to create a secure certificate on the server where we hold our backup/report version of RE.  I'm trying to follow Blackbaud's instructions.  I installed the certificate, but I'm having trouble incorporating the private key which they have provided. Has anyone faced this issue?  I was instructed by BB help to ask Windows for help.  Ugh.

Hey Nancy,


Were you ever able to figure it out? I've just gone through the process of doing this and would love to collaborate with you on some best practices regarding this process. Please let me know.


Thank You,

Me too. We have success using the CERTIFICATE + RESTORE db FROM DISK.

We are still trying to figure out RESTORE db FROM URL using the (SAS) CREDENTIAL
