And, in truth, I /highly/ recommend that you manually back up the database before attempting an upgrade rather than rely on the automatic backup*. Once you create a backup, put a copy of it in some not-part-of-your DB Backups or Default storage group directory on a file system that won't get messed up/overwritten/... by any upgrades.<br>

is probably all you need to set up the backup script.<br>

*And I can say so, since I'm the guy who wrote the code to attempt to back up the database automatically.<br>
