Selecting WFE servers for the Backup Service

The WFE Servers page of the Configuration wizard lists the Web front end (WFE) servers in your SharePoint farm.

ConfigWizard_060_Complete_WFE_Servers

If your SharePoint farm includes one or more separate database servers, the Database Servers page lists the database servers.

Metalogix Backup for SharePoint uses the Backup Service instances that you install to back up the SharePoint objects that you specify in the farm.

If your disaster recovery planning includes farm backups of SharePoint 2013, 2016, 2019 or Subscription Edition farms, you must install the Backup Service on every WFE and every database server in your SharePoint farm.

When you use the Configuration wizard, you must install the Backup Service on at least one WFE.

info

TIP: The first Backup Service that you install must always be on a WFE server.

You should normally use the Configuration wizard to install the Backup Service on every WFE and database server in your SharePoint farm.

You can use the Database Servers page to install the Backup Service on standalone database servers in your SharePoint farm. For more information about the Database Servers page, see Selecting the database servers to install the Backup Service on.

You can also use the Management Console to install the Backup Service on WFE hosts in the SharePoint farm. In addition, if you add a WFE or a database server to your farm, you can use the Management Console to install the Backup Service on the new server.

Finally, you can use the Metalogix Backup for SharePoint installer to install the Backup Service on the WFE or database server directly. To do so, you must be able to log in to the server with an account that is a member of the administrators group on the server. For more information about installing the Backup Service, see Installing the Backup Service.

When you install a Backup Service, you select the WFE server to install on. You also specify the user name and password that the Backup Service uses to run. The user account that you specify must have specific permissions for the farm. For more information about the permissions that the Backup Service user account requires, see Learning about the Backup Service requirements.

The SharePoint Services Web Application Service must be operating on the WFE where you install the Backup Service. If the server does not have the Web Application Service active, you can use the SharePoint Central Administration page to install it.

In the WFE Servers page of the Configuration wizard, review the selected servers, then click Next.

Can I manually install additional Backup Service instances?

Normally, you should not need to manually install additional servers. The WFE Servers page lets you install on every WFE server in the farm.

If you add a WFE or a database server, you can manually install an additional Backup Service in the Configuration tab in the Management Console. For more information about manually installing the Backup Service, see Installing the Backup Service manually.

Selecting Database Servers for the Backup Service

The Database Servers page of the Configuration wizard lists the standalone database servers in your SharePoint farm. A standalone database server hosts one or more SharePoint database components, but does not host a Web front end (WFE).

You can also back up content to a Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) client node, Azure and/or Amazon account. You must set up a TSM virtual server client node, Azure and/or Amazon account before you can back up to these options. For more information about using TSM with Metalogix Backup for SharePoint, see Learning about Tivoli Storage Manager.

info

NOTE: If you remove a backup location that Metalogix Backup for SharePoint uses to store data in TSM, removing the location removes references to the data in Metalogix Backup for SharePoint. In addition, Metalogix Backup for SharePoint sets the data objects to Inactive in TSM but does not automatically delete the data itself. If you need to delete the data from TSM, you should use the TSM management tools to do so. For more information about using TSM, see Learning about Tivoli Storage Manager.
