Hello gang,

While testing of 6.5.4 and GRT for SPS have found a problem - cannot recover webparts from site backup.

Recovery job finishes with status 0.

Any ideas???

Cheers,
Alex

From the SharePoint Admin Guide:
 
About restoring deleted sub-sites or top-level sites In some situations Web Parts are not restored or do not function correctly from the backups that use Granular Recovery Technology (GRT).
 
Consider the following scenario:
■ You delete a sub-site or top-level site that has Web Parts
■ You restore the site from a backup using GRT
In this scenario, the Web Parts are not restored. To successfully restore the site,
do one of the following:
■ Re-register the Web Parts on the sub-site or top-level site. Ensure that the safe
controls are defined in the web.config file for the sub-site or top-level site.
■ Restore the Content database. This restore recreates the Web Parts.

I was dealing with similar case in October, engineer told me that SYMC will provide us EEB after 6.5.5GA, so we're waiting for 6.5.5.

It should be released in next couple of days.
