Restore
You can restore SPS objects using the Data Protector GUI or CLI.
Before you begin
•
Ensure that the SPS Server and the SQL Server instances are online and that the
SPS services run under the SPS administrator account.
•
If you plan to restore SQL Server databases to another location:
• Ensure that the destination SQL Server system is part of the SharePoint Portal
Server environment and has the MS SQL Integration component installed.
• Ensure that the destination SQL Server instance exists, is configured for use
with Data Protector, and is online.
•
The following is applicable only if encryption key is used for the single sign-on
service: before restoring the single sign-on database, ensure that you use the
same encryption key as was used during backup.
Considerations
•
If you have two or more SPS farms within the same Data Protector cell, you cannot
restore/migrate SPS objects from one farm to another.
Restoring using the Data Protector GUI
1.
In the Context List, click Restore.
2.
In the Scoping Pane, expand MS SharePoint Server, expand the front-end Web
server system of the SPS farm to be restored, and then click MS SharePoint Server
[MS SharePoint Portal Server].
