Data Protection Manager for SharePoint 2010

Today's post will point to a link explaining how DPM SharePoint 2010 is working.

I was asked to recover a single file that was deleted early this month and unfortunately, the versioning is not set.

To recover the file on SharePoint 2007, I need to do those steps :

-          Request a restore of the backup to the SQL Team

-          Mount the restore on our SharePoint 2007 test environment

-          Browse the DB and extract the file

-          Copy the file back in production.

Lot of energy for a single file.

Then, I was asked if I have an idea for our SharePoint 2010 production platform to avoid this kind of issue.

I pointed 2 options:

-          Set the versioning by default

-          Use of Data Protection Manager for SharePoint 2010.

I found a nice blog From The Field explaining the DPM process.

That's all folks
