Script To Retrieve SQL Server Database Backup History

To retrieve backup history from sql server instance we have to query 3 tables 

1. msdb.dbo.backupset: This Provides information concerning the most-granular details of the backup process
2. msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily: This Provides metadata for the physical backup files as they relate to backup sets
3. msdb.dbo.backupfile: This system view provides the most-granular information for the physical backup files

Below is query to find backup history:

/*************************************/

SELECT 

CONVERT(CHAR(100), SERVERPROPERTY('Servername')) AS Server, 

msdb.dbo.backupset.database_name, 

msdb.dbo.backupset.backup_start_date, 

msdb.dbo.backupset.backup_finish_date, 

msdb.dbo.backupset.expiration_date, 

CASE msdb..backupset.type 

WHEN 'D' THEN 'Database' 

WHEN 'L' THEN 'Log' 

END AS backup_type, 

msdb.dbo.backupset.backup_size, 

msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily.logical_device_name, 

msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily.physical_device_name, 

msdb.dbo.backupset.name AS backupset_name, 

msdb.dbo.backupset.description 

FROM msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily 

INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.backupset ON msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily.media_set_id = msdb.dbo.backupset.media_set_id 

WHERE (CONVERT(datetime, msdb.dbo.backupset.backup_start_date, 102) >= GETDATE() - 30) 

ORDER BY 

msdb.dbo.backupset.database_name, 

msdb.dbo.backupset.backup_finish_date desc
