Improving backup and restore performance by modifying parameters in the configuration file
If you want to manage the performance of backup and restore jobs for Microsoft Outlook, SharePoint Online, Teams, and OneDrive accounts, you can modify the following parameters in the “nvoffice.cfg” file. The default location of this file is C:\Program Files\Quest\NetVault\config.
The values that you use depend on the value that you select for the Enable multi-streaming options for backup and restore jobs, as well as the bandwidth supported by your network.
The following tables list the parameters, their default settings, and a description of their impact.

Indicates the number of times that the plug-in runs GRAPH API after a failure occurs. | ||

Indicates how long the plug-in should wait before running GRAPH API again after a failure occurs. |

Indicates the Chunk Size that can be used to restore — upload — mail attachments and attachments of type Event in chunks over OneDrive. The Chunk Size must be a multiple of 320 KiB (327,680 bytes). Using a Chunk Size that does not divide evenly by 320 KiB results in errors when committing some the files. You can increase this value to increase the data-transfer rate, depending on the network bandwidth. If you exceed a supported rate, the GRAPH API might generate a TIMEOUT exception. |

Backing up data
Defining a backup-and-recovery strategy
A strategy is divided into two pieces: a backup piece and a restore piece.
The plug-in provides the following types of backup:
|
• |
Full Backups only: You can choose to perform only Full Backups if the backup size is small, the backup window is not an issue, or storage media is not a constraint. In such scenarios, you can schedule Full Backups every night or every N hours depending on the frequency of updates. |
|
• |
Full and Incremental Backups: For quicker backups and minimum use of storage media, you can include Full and Incremental Backups in your strategy. For example, you can schedule Full Backups every Sunday and Incremental Backups every day or every N hours depending on the frequency of updates. |
