TIP:
If this might be an issue for you to meet your recovery window, use the Windows system scheduler
for your backups. See additional instructions in the below NOTE.
IMPORTANT:
If you add a new Web application, a new Microsoft SQL Server system, or you delete a content
database, and so on, update the corresponding backup specifications accordingly.
Restore
• Perform a disaster recovery using the VSS based solution. Reinstall the operating system, the
Microsoft SharePoint Server 2007/2010 environment and Microsoft SQL Server. Ensure that the new
configuration matches the original.
• Perform a restore of Web applications using the VDI based integration. A restore to a new location is
possible. For a single item restore (for example, a content database) use the Data Protector Granular
Recovery Extension for Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010. For details, see the HP Data Protector
Granular Recovery Extension User Guide for Microsoft SharePoint Server.
