can you help me for this...

Backing Up a Whole Database
BACKUP DATABASE { database_name | @database_name_var }
TO <backup_device> [ ,...n ]
[ <mirror to="" clause=""> ] [ next-mirror-to ]
[ WITH { DIFFERENTIAL | <general_with_options> [ ,...n ] } ]
[;]

is this enough for taking backup of database? give me any example of this given syntax.. because i didn't understand the syntax.
