In my test machine system is windows server 2008 and installed WSUS
now I want to downgrade to windows server 2003.
How can I backup WSUS database? the new ntbackup.exe is only to restore,
NOT for backup.

Hello Alex,

Unfortunal you cna not longer backup files and folders with server 2008.
It uses VSS to backup complete volumes/harddisks. The only separat is the
system state. The commandline tool wbadmin is also available. You can check
it out, but wiithout 3rd party software, you can't. But i think you can stop
all services related to WSUS and copy the database to another server.

Check this article for exporting the database:
