Scaled-Out Farm deployment

In a Scaled-Out Farm deployment, the SharePoint SQL Server Instance, application server, and web server each reside on a dedicated server. Optionally, SharePoint Administrators can deploy extra dedicated web servers. The plug-in is installed on a single web or application server and performs all backup and restores from this server.

Scaled-Out Farm deployment prerequisites

Verify that the following prerequisites are met:

For scaled-out farms, use UNC share paths, such as \\machine_name\SPbackup, so that the SQL Server Database and search components are written to the same location. This directory must exist and all the servers in the SharePoint Farm must be able to access it.
In addition, verify that Change and Read Share Permissions for the file share are granted to the domain account user.
Ensure that the SharePoint Administration service in the Windows Services is started. This service is not started by default on Scaled-Out Farm deployments.

Assigning the SP_DATA_ACCESS role for SharePoint 2013 and later

Although SP_DATA_ACCESS database role is the default role for database access in SharePoint 2013 and later, Quest recommends that you ensure that the domain user account has the SP_DATA_ACCESS role.
