Import and Mount a Metalogix Full Farm Backup

This topic assumes that your Metalogix Backup for SharePoint environment is connected to at least one SharePoint farm, and you have performed a full farm backup as described in the Performing a Metalogix Full Farm Backup topic. If you selected a content database in the Mount Options step in the Backup Wizard, the content database is already mounted and you don't have to do this step.

About the granular restore process

Metalogix Backup for SharePoint uses a Backup Service that you install on your SharePoint Web Front End (WFE) servers or SQL Server to perform all backup and restore operations. The Backup Service communicates with both the Management Service and with SharePoint. When Metalogix Backup for SharePoint restores backed-up SharePoint objects, it follows the SharePoint object model:

·Documents or Files

·Folders

·Libraries

·Lists

·List items

·Sites or Web sites

·Site Collections

What restore type options are available?

The Restore Type option allows you to specify how Metalogix Backup for SharePoint restores the backed-up objects. Each restore type has its own wizard that guides you through the restore process.

In-place

When you perform an in-place restore Metalogix Backup for SharePoint will add the missing objects to the destination. With the Overwrite Data option available in the restore wizards, when selected, allows you to overwrite content on your farms with the content selected in the restore section.

Out-of-place

An out-of-place restore creates new SharePoint objects in your farm. Metalogix Backup for SharePoint restores the backed-up objects to a different SharePoint location. The new location must be a valid SharePoint structure for the objects. For example, you cannot restore a list within another list.

If an object that you restore has the same name and type as an object that already exists, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint prompts you to overwrite the existing object or skip it.

If an object that you restore has the same name as an object that already exists, but is a different object type, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint does not restore the object.

Metalogix Backup for SharePoint never automatically overwrites objects during an out-of-place restore. No objects with the same name can exist at the same place in the hierarchy. For example, If you back up List1 under Web site A, and Web site B already has a List1, you cannot restore the backed-up List1 under Web site B.

The restored objects have all of the applicable permissions that were defined when the objects were backed-up. The out-of-place restore option lets you copy and move SharePoint objects and their child objects.

Local

Creates a hierarchy of folders in a location accessible to the computer that hosts the Management Console, then copies the backed-up SharePoint files and folders to that location.

Each restored file or folder inherits the permissions of the local folder. The local restore option lets you retrieve a local copy of the file. You can use this option to quickly retrieve a copy of a backed-up file and verify that you selected the correct version of the file. Metalogix Backup for SharePoint lets users perform local restores to their computer.

What should I consider when I restore SharePoint objects?

When you restore an object, the parent of the target object must already exist. For example, if you perform an in-place restore of Web site B and Web site B is under Web site A in the backup set, Web site A must exist in the restore target location to restore Web site B. If you perform an out-of-place restore of Web site B , the Web site that you select to restore Web site B must exist.

When you restore a SharePoint object, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint does not modify the parent of the target object. Because of this, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint cannot restore some components of SharePoint objects that require changes to the target parent. This means that among others, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint is unable to restore workflows, links, and custom column names.

If you restore a custom list, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint may not restore the changes to the default column names. If the custom column names do not exist in the target parent SharePoint object, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint cannot restore these changes.

When you restore a document or list item, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint does not restore any workflows that are associated with that document. If you restore a site that contains lists or libraries with workflows that are set to start automatically, the workflow is restored but is set to start manually.

info

NOTE: When you restore a document or list item that includes an associated Web Part, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint does not restore the Web Part.

When you restore only a list, and you have configured custom content types or inherited content types, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint may not restore the content types and workflow associations for the list. Metalogix Backup for SharePoint restores what it can based on whether the content types exist in the target parent.

If you restore in-place list items that were deleted, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint creates new list items. If you perform another in-place restore operation that includes those list items, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint may create duplicate objects because the internal identifiers for the list items do not match the originally backed-up objects.

When you restore an object using a differential backup, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint displays two restore operations on the Management Console Overview tab: a restore from the full backup immediately followed by a restore from the differential backup.

What permissions are required to restore SharePoint objects?

Metalogix Backup for SharePoint uses the permissions of the logged in user on the computer where the Management Console is installed. When you restore a site collection, Web site, or SharePoint item, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint takes into account both the current permissions that the user has and the permissions the user had when the backup was created.

The user must have appropriate permissions assigned both when the backup was created, and in the present. In the present, the permission applies to the site collection that is the target for the restore. The user must have one of the following permissions assigned, otherwise if the user did not have sufficient permissions when the objects were backed-up, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint displays the site collections and Web sites in the backup set as disabled.

Site Collection Administrator
Users with the Site Collection Administrator role can restore SharePoint items to any site or site collection where they are the administrator.

Web Application Policy - Full Control
A user who has full control as a result of a Web application policy can restore SharePoint items to any site or site collection in a Web application where they are granted full control.

SharePoint Farm Administrator
A SharePoint Farm Administrator can restore SharePoint items to any site or site collection in a SharePoint farm, including MySites for all users.
