What is the difference between Differential Back up and Transaction Log Backup?
Hi Community,
Being quite new to SQL, may I know what is the difference between Differential Back up and Transaction Log Backup in SQL management studio 2016?
Also can advise what exactly am I backing up in Transactional Logs?
Can you also direct me or show me how to do a step by step Transactional Log backup?
Thank you so much!
Hi thanhtien19,
to configure Edge to access Outlook Web with user enrollment, you need to do the following:
- Make sure that you have configured Conditional Access (CA) to allow user enrollment. To do this, create a new CA policy and set the Conditions to Device platforms and Select the platforms to All platforms. Then, set the Controls to Grant access and Require enrollment.
- Create a new app configuration policy for Edge. To do this, go to Devices > Configuration profiles > Create profile. Select App configuration as the profile type and select Microsoft Edge as the target app.
- In the App configuration policies section, click Add. Enter a name for the policy and select Single sign-on as the policy type.
- In the Single sign-on configuration section, select Enabled.
- Click Save.
- Assign the app configuration policy to the users who will be using Edge to access Outlook Web.
Once you have completed these steps, users will be able to access Outlook Web in Edge without having to sign in.
Note: If you are using the Intune Company Portal to enroll user devices, you will need to make sure that the Encrypt only work data checkbox is not selected. This is because Conditional Access requires devices to be enrolled in Intune in order to access protected resources.
Here are some additional troubleshooting tips:
- Make sure that the user's device is meeting the compliance requirements of your Conditional Access policy. You can check this by going to Devices > All devices and selecting the user's device.
- Make sure that the user's Edge app is up to date. You can check this by going to the Microsoft Store app on the user's device and selecting Downloads and updates.
- Try clearing the user's Edge cache and cookies. To do this, open Edge and go to Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Clear browsing data.
- Try resetting Edge. To do this, open Edge and go to Settings > Reset settings > Restore settings to their original defaults.

Differential Backup:
- A differential backup captures only the changes made since the last full backup.
- It includes all the changes made to the database since the last full backup, regardless of whether a transaction log backup has been performed.
- Differential backups are generally larger than transaction log backups as they include more data changes.
- It is suitable for scenarios where you need a more comprehensive backup and faster recovery compared to a full backup.
Transaction Log Backup:
- A transaction log backup captures all the transactions made since the last transaction log backup.
- It only includes the changes recorded in the transaction log, not the actual data pages.
- Transaction log backups are smaller in size compared to differential backups because they only contain the log records.
- They are essential for point-in-time recovery and provide a way to restore the database to a specific time.
To perform a step-by-step transaction log backup in SQL Server Management Studio 2016, follow these steps:
-
Open SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) and connect to the SQL Server instance containing your database.
-
In the Object Explorer, expand the Databases node and locate the database for which you want to perform a transaction log backup.
-
Right-click on the database, hover over Tasks, and then click on "Back Up..."
-
In the "Back Up Database" window, select "Transaction Log" from the "Backup type" drop-down menu.
-
In the "Destination" section, choose the destination where you want to store the backup file. You can either specify a disk location or use a tape drive.
-
In the "Backup set" section, provide a unique name for the backup set, or you can use the default name.
-
Click the "Add" button to specify any additional backup locations or devices if needed.
-
Click "OK" to initiate the transaction log backup.
Once the backup is complete, you'll have a transaction log backup file that you can use for point-in-time recovery or to restore your database to a specific state.
Hope that helps!
