we currently have some C# or C++ code that deletes t-log backup files from disk after they are x number of days old. is it possible in sql server 2012 to use the new file table feature to write a query and delete the file. ( i dont mean a delete of rows within a relational table that map to the files) I have scanned some help files and can see many benefits for the File Table , but I dont see any direct help file that suggests this is possible. I work in a large shop with many servers, 95% in SQL server env. 5% in sybase and just have accomplished this in sybase so would like to know the same for sql server. . . I dont need a coded solution but links to any help file(s) would be great, thanks.
Also -- im not interested in any other workarounds.
thank you
