Deploying the plug-in

Microsoft supports the deployment of a SharePoint environment on a single server, small farm, or scaled-out farm. Deploying the plug-in in each of these environments is almost identical in that the plug-in is installed on the server that is performing the role of the SharePoint Web Server. Backing up the entire SharePoint environment or farm is performed from this single installation of the plug-in.

The following topics describe plug-in deployment in a Single Server, Small Farm, or Scaled-Out Farm, and the prerequisites required for each type of deployment.
