filegroup_name nvarchar(128) Name of the filegroup containing a backed up database file. Can be NULL.
page_size int Size of the page, in bytes.
file_number numeric(10,0) File identification number unique within a database (corresponds to sys.database_files.file_id).

RECOVERY_PENDING

SUSPECT OFFLINE DEFUNCT
create_lsn numeric(25,0) Log sequence number at which the file was created.

To reduce the number of rows in this table and in other backup and history tables, execute the sp_delete_backuphistory stored procedure.
