* To locate the database files on disk, the following command can be run against the SQL Server instance to create the file C:\databases.txt.
sqlcmd -E -S (local)\SOPHOS -Q "SELECT name, filename from sysdatabases" > C:\databases.txt
Note: The above command should be run on the computer hosting the Sophos databases. It assumes that a local default SOPHOS instance name is in use. For more information on determining your instance name see article 113030.
Once run, open C:\databases.txt in a text editor to view the file name, path and database name.
