Hi
I have an issue with my sharepoint backups. The backups are running ok, although taking about 18 hours to run using GRT of a 203GB database.
When I try to do a restore, I click on the restore by resource view, expand out my sharepoint node and navigate to Windows SharePoint Services Web Application, Expand Intranet, and there I can see my Content-DB 1 and Content-DB 2 databases etc. However, these all have backup dates of last year.
When I expand out Windows SharePoint Services Search, seach instance, these index files are all current.
When I select View By Media, I am able to expand the Database Server, then various databases and then view all my sites underneath with the documents for each site.
When I backup my test sharepoint farm, which has a standard SharePoint install, it works correctly, I can view all my sites underneath my Web Application tree.
My production sharepoint farm has a seperate index server and seperate web services and databases servers.
When I updated to 12.5 Sp1 yesterday, the job appeared to run correctly, as it took most of the time updating catalogs, but I still can't see any of my sites underneath View by Resource.
It seems to be a bug somewhere?
has anyone found this problem before?
