Abstract
A determination is made that a backup of a database in an availability group provided by a relational database management system (RDBMS) should be performed. The availability group includes a node functioning as a primary node and hosting a primary replica of the database and one or more other nodes functioning as secondary nodes and hosting secondary replicas of the database. The availability group is a clusterless availability group in which the one or more other nodes functioning as secondary nodes are not available as automatic failover targets should the primary node become unavailable. A command is issued to a node in the availability group to obtain a globally unique identifier (GUID) of the availability group. The node is instructed to index a backup of the database against the GUID of the availability group.
