Backup Best Practices
• Site level is the easiest to manage
– Sites usually have specific uses (team, project, meeting, etc.)
– Rank can be determined at the time of site creation request
• Base rank on business importance
– High – Critical content
– Medium – most SharePoint content
– Low – Information also stored in other locations
• Periodically review ranking
– A project site may be important today, but what about when the project is complete?
– Look out for “everything is critical” users
– Compare usage versus importance for any site ranked as High
Develop a ranking system for SharePoint sites

Backup Best Practices
Base your backup strategy on your rankings
• Set SLAs based on rank
• Test restores at every level with whatever backup strategy you choose
• Consider building topology based on site criticality and ranking, but be warned that you will never get this right
• With default tools, all it takes is one critical site to make an entire content DB critical

Backup Criteria To Consider
Full fidelity of original dataEnsure that all content remains associated with its preserved metadata and version histories. No jeopardizing of data integrity or falsification of records
1
Granularity of backup and recoveryAbility to backup and recover only what is deemed necessary, rather than depending on full database backups
2
3Flexibility of schedulingAbility to efficiently discriminate data – schedule according to business needs and frequency of content updates
4Full coverage of all SharePoint farm‐level componentsInsure all levels of your SharePoint components against unforeseen disasters and easily recover an entire farm

Backup Strategies Example
How should we handle backups in our example?
• No granularity on backup/restore, likely limited to daily backups
• Does not protect other SharePoint components
• Backups will be large, restore can be time consuming
• How well do DBA’s understand the business needs?
SQL Backup?
STSADM?• Can be used to cover High sites• Granularity of restore and metadata still an issue• You will still likely need a daily SQL backup to cover
the rest• Issues for sites above 5GB and customized sites
The right tools allow you to match backup strategy to business importance

Backup Best Practices
Business importance is only half the picture
• Some critical content may not be very active
• Some critical content may be very active and changing frequently, and should be covered with an aggressive schedule
• The same may be going on across all levels
• An active site of the same rank should be backed up more than a less active site of the same rank

DocAve 5.0, Can We Make It Even Better?
• How can you reduce time needed to build backup plans?
• How can you streamline (and eliminate) the periodic review process?
• How do you make sure new content is properly covered?
• What if you could automate the process?
– Set up the rules
– Let the software manage the operations
– Monitor it all via a single interface
This is an ideal strategy, but can we make it even more powerful?

Backup Strategies
• Search and Index databases
– How long does it take to index your environment?
– How long can you live without search?
• Custom Web parts
– How important are they to the functioning of your environment?
– How long will they take to reinstall and configure?
• Other SharePoint components
– IIS Settings
– Shared Services
– Configuration Databases
What else do you need to worry about?

System Architecture Needs
• Front End Web Servers
– How will the user access the backup manager?
– What happens if the web server becomes in accessible?
• Job Servers
– How many servers will be responsible for running the backup job?
– Will backups still take place if the job server is lost?
• Media Agents
– How will users retrieve their data in the event of the loss of a Media Server?
– Will backups still take place if a media server is lost?
