Disaster Recovery

Disaster recovery is the last case to consider. In this case there are several ways

to protect the system. When using the NetVault: Backup SQL Server APM, you

can back up the SQL Server database for SharePoint and protect most of your

data. In addition, the FileSystem Plugin can be used in conjunction with the

STSADM tool shipped with MOSS 2007 or the SPSBackup tool shipped with

SharePoint 2003 to dump a backup to a directory on the file system and backup

that directory.

In general, a SQL Server backup will be faster than an STSADM backup. It is

recommended to use SQL Server backups on site collections larger than 15GB

due to the amount of time an STSADM backup would require. While a SQL

Server backup will protect SharePoint databases, a MOSS 2007 STSADM backup

with the –directory.

 

 

SharePoint Portal Server 2003 versus MOSS 2007

Both SharePoint 2003 and MOSS 2007 install with the STSADM tool

(STSADM.exe) that allows administrators to perform backup via the command line

interface. A key enhancement to the MOSS 2007 STSADM is the ability to

perform a "catastrophic" backup in addition to a site collection backup which is the

only available backup type with 2003 STSADM.

SharePoint 2003 ships with the SPSBackup tool which backs up and restores all

databases, except the configuration database. SPSBackup also restores content

indexes and content sources.

 

 

Scipts:

 

pre.bat

echo off

rem Farm level SharePoint backup, can be modified to be

rem differential or site level. Run stsadm at the command

rem prompt for a full list of backup options.

stsadm -o backup -directory c:\backup -backupmethod full

 

post.bat

echo off

rem Once the files have been written to media, clean out

the backup directory

RMDIR C:\backup /S /Q

MKDIR C:\backup

 

This will create a full farm level backup for MOSS 2007.

To perform a site level backup on SharePoint 2003 or MOSS 2007 the command

would be similar to:

stsadm -o backup -url http://server/site -filename backup.dat -overwrite
