I was very disappointed that NetApp just doesn't add Feature to automatically update the (MS)SQL Job automatically every time a new Database gets created. (for a Full backup)
So i now want to share with you what I did to automatically add a new Database to out full SQL backup job.
Maybe someone has some ideas on how to make things a little bit more efficient or create not so much temporary files :)
Just Create a SQL job with executes the flowing batch file to update the NetApp SnapManager SQL Job.

REM deleting the temp file

I hope this can help anyone make things a bit more efficient.
The answer is above :) Hopefully someone will find that user full, or at least inspiring ;)
