Sharepoint GRT backup policy retry attempt setting
I encountered an issue yesterday in my environment which caused the Full Sharepoint GRT backup to fail and then retry. However it kept retrying (over 25 times with errors / emails for each attempt) until it finally succeeded. Is there a setting for the number of retry attempts? Thank you.Solved1.3KViews0likes3CommentsSQL or Sharepoint Agents?
Issue started when SQL DBA reported differential restore failure due to break in SQL LSN (SQL Message<3136>The differential backup cannot be restored because the database has not been restored to the correct earlier state ). The full restore is succesful. here's our scenario we are taking sharepoint backup, and this database is part of the farm. so we are backing up the databases in the sharepoint backups. also we are taking backup of databases from sql server, here's the conflict. Can anyone suggest best practices: 1.Can you backup sharepoint without having it to backup DB's? 2.There are drawbacks in using either SQL or Sharepoint agents. Using both causes restore issues. What are others using in their environment?877Views0likes1CommentSharepoint Farm Client Selection
Hi, We have a large Sharepoint Farm with 8 nodes (2 SQL, 2 Front End Web, 2 app Server, 2 Workflow Manager, 2 Office Web Apps), we have installed and configured the netbackup client on all of the nodes. In the Administration guide, it is suggested to create 3 separate policies ( 1 for GRT, 1 for Full Farm, 1 for Disaster Recovery), but the clarification we need is which client to specify on each of those policies, i only found by looking in the community that for the Full Farm only Front End Web should be specified (should we put the 2 of them in case of one down ?), and how about the other Policy for GRT, which client should be specified ? ( i guess that for DR, we should backup all of the clients.) Thank you662Views0likes1Comment
