SQL Server – Get Backupset Records

The script below retrieves the backupset records.  A backup set contains the backup from a single, successful backup operation. RESTORE, RESTORE FILELISTONLY, RESTORE HEADERONLY, and RESTORE VERIFYONLY statements operate on a single backup set within the media set on the specified backup device or devices.

USE msdb ;
SELECT 
backup_start_date ,
backup_finish_date,
CAST(ROUND ((backup_size / 1024 / 1024), 0, 1) AS DECIMAL (18,0)) AS Backup_Size_MB ,
recovery_model,
[type]
FROM dbo.backupset
WHERE database_name = 'RBD_DB'
ORDER BY backup_start_date DESC

/*
