<br />
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The profiling feature use to identify the code and all various elements that causes to slow SharePoint applications performance. Profiling feature observes & records the performance behavior of SharePoint application. Profiling eliminates the problems that cause to slow SharePoint applications performance such as memory allocation issues, bottlenecks, inefficient code etc. Visual Studio provides several profiling tools in the integrated development environment to identify SharePoint application performance issues. </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Profiling Methods</b></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Profiling Tools use five methods to collect SharePoint applications performance data. Here is the overview of five methods: </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>SAMPLING:</b></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When you run profiling feature, it has very less impact on the application methods execution. Sampling profiling method collects statistical data that is performed by an SharePoint application. </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It is set as a default in Microsoft Visual Studio Premium Profiling Tools. Here are all advantages of this method:</span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Initial explorations of SharePoint Application Performance</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Investigating SharePoint Application performance issues that affect the utilization of the processor.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This method interrupts the computer processor at the set time intervals and collects the function call stack. </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This method covers two parts- First is Exclusive sample counts that are incremented for the executing function & the second is inclusive counts that are incremented for all function call stack. </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sampling Profiling reports covers these counts total for the profiled module, function etc.</span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>INTRUMENTATION:</b></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The instrumentation profiling method collects function timing calls in a profiled SharePoint application. Here are all advantages of this method:</span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Investigating input/output bottlenecks </span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Examination of a particular module </span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Examination of set of functions</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The instrumentation method collects function timing information in the instrumented file by injecting code in a binary file. Instrumentation reports cover four values to represent the total function timing: </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Elapsed Inclusive -</b> The total spent time on function execution. </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Application Inclusive </b>- The total spent time on function execution. but exclude OS calls time. </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Elapsed Exclusive - </b>The total spent time on code execution in the body of the function. But exclude the total spent time on functions execution called by the function.</span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Application Exclusive - </b>The total spent time on code execution in the body of the function. But exclude the total spent time on functions execution & executing calls to the operating system called by the function.</span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>CONCURRENCY:</b></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Concurrency profiling collects multithreaded applications information & also about how your multithreaded application interacts with the hardware & the OS. Concurrency reports cover two values such as: </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Resource contention reports show total number of contentions and the total waiting time for a resource for the modules, functions, source code lines, and instructions. </span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The concurrency visualizer displays graphical information to locate performance bottlenecks, CPU underutilization, areas of overlapped I/O, and many other information. </span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>.NET MEMORY:</b></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The .NET memory allocation profiling method interrupts the processor at each allocation of a .NET Framework object in a profiled application. It collects the information about the type, size, and number of objects that were created in an allocation. </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This profiler collects the additional information about the function call stack after an allocation event occurs. This method covers two parts- First is Exclusive allocation counts that are incremented for currently executing function. Second is inclusive counts that are incremented for all function call stack . </span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">.NET reports cover the totals of these counts for the profiled types, modules, functions, source code lines, and instructions. </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This profiler collects information about destroyed objects data and information about the objects in each garbage collection generation when a garbage collection occurs. Then the profiler records objects data that were not explicitly destroyed. </span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>The Object Lifetime report</b> displays the totals for each type that was allocated in the profiling run.</span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We can use this method in both sampling and instrumentation mode. The Allocation and Object Lifetime reports should be same even you will select any mode: </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After running .NET memory profiling in sampling mode the profiler .NET uses memory allocation events as the interval. </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In the reports, it shows the number of allocated objects & the total allocated bytes with the inclusive and exclusive values. </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After running .NET memory profiling in instrumentation mode, all detailed timing information is collected together with the inclusive and exclusive allocation values.</span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>TIER INTERACTION:</b></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Tier-interaction profiling method collects information about synchronous ADO.NET calls between an ASP.NET page and a SQL Server database to a profiling data file. This data covers the number and time of calls, and the max & min times. <span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When you completed running a profile analysis on your application then a report provides detailed information about the application performance that I have already mentioned in all methods. Let take a detailed overview about reporting. </span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 0.42cm;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Before creating a site collection, you must first create a Web application because site collections reside in a web application. Here is the full structure of SharePoint site collection:</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can see in structure that a site collection is the collection of one top-level site and sub sites. All content of a site collection stored in a single content database. You can clearly see the figure that the top level of organization is web application. Web applications also need at least one content database to store all data. Now let’s move the steps to create a web application in SharePoint 2013:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you are site collection administrators then you can use 2nd stage recycle bin to restore your deleted sites. Before using this option, you must check these points: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If the site is in the Recycle Bin, at this time if you added any content types then it will not included. Therefore, field definitions might not be up-to-date. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If the site is in the Recycle Bin, at this time Content deployment will not work for a deleted site. To resolve this issue, scoped deployment must be run for this site. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If the site is in the Recycle Bin, at this time if you update package or install hotfix, the update package will skip the site. To resolve this issue, update the site afterward. </span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><i>Restore a deleted site from 2nd stage recycle bin:</i></b> First you should verify that the account that is used to perform this procedure has the site collection administrator permission.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">log on as site collection administrators</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In Central Administration, click Site Actions>>Site Settings.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In the Site Collection Administration section, click Recycle Bin.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">On the Recycle Bin page, select the check box for the deleted site that you want to restore.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Click OK.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Some Marking Points: </span></i></b><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">2nd stage Recycle Bin has a setting of site quotas for space limitations. If it reaches its quota limit, older items will be overwritten.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you are not enabled site quotas then 2nd stage recycle bin will have no space limitations.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When a site is deleted, it directly goes to the 2nd stage recycle bin.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A user will only see items they have deleted in the recycle bin.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you turned off the functionality of recycle bin then the items are permanently deleted and can only be restore from a backup.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hope the article will help you understand Recycle Bin Functionality in SharePoint 2013!!</span><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you have restored or recovered your corrupt content database from another farm and wanted to access the sites from a Web application that farm contains then in this case, you have to first attach your content database to the farm. You can do it by using Windows PowerShell, SharePoint Central Administration. If you are performing command-line administrative tasks then I will recommend you to use Windows PowerShell because sometimes Stsadm command-line tool raise error message during this process. Here are all steps: </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><i>1. Windows PowerShell: </i></b>Before using this step, first you should check that user account should be the SQL Serverdbcreator member. After that use following steps:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Start menu>>All Programs>>Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Products>>Click SharePoint 2010 Management Shell.</span></i><br />
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></i>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">At the Windows PowerShell command prompt, type following command to attach repaired content database:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Mount-SPContentDatabase "" -DatabaseServer "" -WebApplication http://SiteName</span></i><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i><b>2. SharePoint Central Administration: </b></i> Before using this step, first you should check that user account should be the farm Administrators SharePoint group member. After that use following steps:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">SharePoint Central Administration Web site>>Application Management.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Application Management page>>Databases section>>Manage content databases.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Manage Content Databases page>>Add a content database.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Add Content Database page> select the Web application from Web Application drop-down menu to which you want to attach a content database.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Specify the database server, database name & authentication method for the database.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Note: if you are using SQL authentication then also supply an account name and password.</span><br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Click Ok</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><i>Final Words: </i></b>You can also de-attach your content database by using Windows PowerShell and SharePoint Central Administration. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can use three options to backup SharePoint 2013 farm: SharePoint Central Administration, Windows PowerShell & SQL Server tools. We also used these three options in SharePoint Server 2010 & 2007 but the procedure was little bit different. Here are all steps:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><i>Windows PowerShell:</i></b></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Are you sure that backup and recovery operations performed well and the environment is surely <a href="http://www.stellarinfo.com/database-recovery/sharepoint-recovery/sharepoint-server-recovery.php" rel="nofollow"><b>recover your SharePoint database against data loss</b></a>.Here are six important steps which can help you to plan a better backup & recovery process: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1. <i><b>Avoid running concurrent processes: </b></i>During backup & recovery operation, avoid running another process. Also remember that all databases are not backed up at the same time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">2. <i><b>S</b><b>mall database for faster recovery: </b></i>Keep databases as small as possible which help you to speed up both backup and recovery process. You can do it by many methods one of: by using multiple content databases for a Web application instead of one large content database. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">3. <i><b>Always prefer incremental backups for large databases: </b></i>Incremental backups can be faster restoration than other backup options for larger databases. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">4. <i><b>Use SQL Server backup and restore optimization recommendations: </b></i>There are many common recommendations for better SQL backup & restore operations optimizations; some are: Use a combination of full, differential, and transaction log backups for SQL Server to minimize the time of recovery process. If you are using the full recovery model then to avoid maintenance issues, you should periodically truncate the transaction log files. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">5. <i><b>Configure SharePoint settings for better backup or restore:</b></i> performance: For better backup or restore performance, you can configure settings which is available in Central Administration and Windows PowerShell. Some common settings are: If you are using the Export-SPWeb Windows PowerShell cmdlet, you can use NoFileCompression parameter to suppress file compression while exporting and importing the file because File compression can use up to 30% more resources. One another parameter NoLogFile to suppress log file creation to save resources.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />6.<b><i> Consider site collection size when determining the tools to use: </i></b>When you used site collection backups then you should select the tools that are based on the site collection size. For example: If the site collection size is less than 15 GB then you should use the Windows PowerShell command Backup-SPSite. If the size is 15-100 GB then Use a SharePoint Products and Technologies tool, a SQL Server tool.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />All these six steps will surely guide you to plan better backup & recovery process.</span></div>

<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can use SharePoint Central Administration or Stsadm command-line tool to backup & recover a Farm.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Before using this method, you should back up the server farm, Web applications, and any or all of the content databases in your server farm.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">To perform this method to backup and recovery, you must still be a member of the admin group on a computer on which Office SharePoint Server 2007 is installed.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Restoring from one version of SharePoint to a different version is not supported</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">At the same time, you cannot perform more than one recovery from the same backup.</span></li>

<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Don't make any changes to the site collection during the backup process; otherwise the backup can become corrupted.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Backing up large site collections can take a long time.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You should lock the site collection before you use Stsadm site collection backup.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Site collection backups are extremely processor - and memory-intensive. Do not use the Stsadm backup operation for site collections larger than 15 gigabytes (GB).</span></li>

<br />
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Recycle Bins collect deleted documents and list items such as documents, document versions, document libraries, picture libraries, announcements, calendars, links, tasks, folders, pages, team discussions.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When a list item is deleted, any attachments to the item are also deleted and can be restored from the Recycle Bin.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Items cannot be opened or viewed while in the Recycle Bin. An item must first be restored before it can be opened or viewed just like in windows.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">By default, items in both Recycle Bins are automatically deleted after a specified time period (the default setting is 30 days). If the second-stage Recycle Bin reaches its size limit, the oldest items are also automatically deleted.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Site and site collection deletion is not managed through the Recycle Bins. </span></li>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Microsoft added 2 advanced features in SharePoint 2010 which was not available in SharePoint server 2007. The features are:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Granular Backup/Restore </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In SharePoint 2010 we can easily maintain full backups as well as granular backups. With granular backups, recovery of single document is also possible. In SharePoint Server 2007, backup and restore process was only as granular as the site collection. Before SharePoint 2010 launch, third party utilities used to recover an individual site, list, library, document, or item. In SharePoint 2010, granular backup is available through Central Administrator or PowerShell. Now It’s possible to backup & restore SharePoint site collection, sites, lists, document libraries, and items. For this process, first you mount the backup, export the desired object, then import it into the production database. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can use this feature from here:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i style="background-color: #9fc5e8;">Go to central administration-->Backup and Restore-->Granular Backup</i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now You don't need to attach content database backup to the SQL Server to recover data from there. SharePoint 2010 has a feature to recover data from unattached content database. To use the unattached content database recovery, you will need to remember some points:: </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">To know document original location. </span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">when the document was corrupted or deleted. Through these information you can grab the backup file from the right date. </span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You need to mount the database on a SQL server. For this you can use same SQL instance used by SharePoint or a different. Make sure, If you restore into the same SQL instance, use different name for the restored database.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can use this feature from here: </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Conclusion:</b> With these two features of SharePoint 2010, you can easily perform backup & recovery process on single document & unattached content database. This is evergreen hot topic for any database as well for SharePoint Server- Backup & Recovery Process. So this is more important to update yourself with each & every updation related to database backup & recovery. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Are SQL Server backups good enough?” Do I need a SharePoint Recovery inbuilt utilities?” The SQL Server Backup process only back up the SQL server databases. This strategy will not work if we want to recover full SharePoint recovery farm. As it is very common question of user i.e. which backup plan we should use to restore SharePoint database, often the real answer to this question is “it depends”. SharePoint is a complex platform & administrator knows that he need backup to safeguard their environments. There are many tools Microsoft makes available to backup SharePoint. The tools right fit in variety of situations and environments such as you can use the stsadm tool that comes with SharePoint to perform backups of individual content databases or collections. You can use System Center Data Protection Manager to backup full farm & so on.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You should keep SharePoint's databases in good condition & corruption free by using standard maintenance tasks. If you are administrator of SharePoint then you should understand what are those maintenance tasks and to know for how and when to run them. First you need to check SQL Server setup is up to date with the latest patches and hotfixes. The appropriate solution to handle any corruption is daily update your database backups. The great part about Maintenance Plan is that you can use the Maintenance Plan Wizard to set it up. The wizard gives you the ability to add items such as database backups and transaction logs, to update database statistics, and to manage data such as indexes.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">This article has description about several methods to perform recovery process When you recover data from corrupt SharePoint Server, first divides recovery of SharePoint Server in three primary levels: document recovery, site recovery, and full farm recovery.<br /><br /><br /><span style="background-color: #999999;">Document Recovery</span><br /><br />Most of the time only document, content or other items like task, discussion thread, folder, list, or document library get corrupted & you are not able to access these documents. Or inadvertent document deletion by a user is also common.<br /><br /><i><b>Tools and Techniques: </b></i></span><br />
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Deleted documents & items can be restored by recycle Bin without any secondary tools.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">In this scenario, SharePoint Central Administration used to back & restore individual components.</span></li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /><br /><i><span style="background-color: #999999;">Site Recovery</span></i><br /><br /><br />The loss of a site & site collections is caused by data corruption, but inadvertent deletion by a user is also common. In this case data hosted in a site collection becomes unavailable from the content database due to some causes such as the accidental deletion of files, data corruption, or administrative error. <br /><br /><br /><i><b>Tools and Techniques: </b></i></span><br />
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-size: small;">If an administrator has performed backups on a regular basis, site recovery is possible, but it is not a trivial task. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Command line utility STSAdm.exe has more than 180 operations to backup & recovery operations. The utility can be back up & restore site collections, sub-sites, pages within the sites.</span></li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /><br /><i><span style="background-color: #999999;">Full Farm Recovery</span></i><br /><br /><br />SharePoint Farm contains all information, if it get corrupted, all information get inaccessible like content database, web application. Farm loss is the most costly to any organization. <br /><br /><br /><i><b>Tools and Techniques:</b></i></span><br />
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-size: small;">In this case it is recommended to install new farm, create a new database, restore all web applications from updated backup and the re-deploy any customization.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">SharePoint Central Administration can back individual components but also entire SharePoint farm.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">In this case Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager 2007 can restore the configuration database, content databases, and customizations to a new SQL server.</span></li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /><br /><i><span style="background-color: #999999;">Conclusion:</span></i> SharePoint Server provides several inbuilt utilities to backup and recovery but they are usually limited features to recover single documents, lists, and sites, farm & take too long time. To complete following recovery process, all utilities required updated & accessible backups & day-to-day SharePoint management. Some companies offer <b><a href="http://www.stellarinfo.com/database-recovery/sharepoint-recovery/sharepoint-server-recovery.php" rel="nofollow">SharePoint Recovery Software</a></b> which have most advanced features to perform recovery process.

<ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You can only restore one Web application at a time by using above methods. If you want to restore all the Web applications then you would restore the complete farm. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">During the backup process file can be corrupted If any changes are made to the web applications.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You cannot use SQL Server tools to restore Web applications.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">In case you are taking the back up of the Web application first time then you must select full backup option.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You should also restore the IIS settings & content databases that are associated with the Web application.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">If you are using Central Administration then first verify the user that performing this method is a member of the Farm Administrators group.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You cannot schedule automatic backups from the Central Administration. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Both methods (Windows Powershell & Central Administration), Cannot back up directly to the tape, location must be a UNC path or a local drive.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">In both methods (Windows Powershell & Central Administration), you cannot restore the Web application by using configuration-only backup.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">The third party tools recover sites data one by one. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">These <b><a href="http://www.stellarinfo.com/database-recovery/sharepoint-recovery/sharepoint-server-recovery.php" rel="nofollow">third party SharePoint Server Recovery</a></b> tools also help you to upload sites on the server.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">These third party tools also help you to recover content database & works on all SharePoint Server versions.</span></li>

<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Sometimes our SharePoint Database gets corrupted & we cannot access our database.</span><span style="font-size: small;"> To back up SharePoint, it is very important to understand that each SharePoint portal contains one or more Web servers, application servers, query servers, index servers, application servers, all storing content inside a SQL Server database server. These parts of a SharePoint can be loaded onto a single server, or distributed across several servers in a server farm. Backing up SharePoint on a single server is relatively straightforward; to back up a farm. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">SharePoint 2010 provides three types of inbuilt tools for backup & restore for your server farm. The tools are: Central Administration, Windows PowerShell, Stsadm.exe</span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">As I have already discussed about Central Administration, <a href="http://sharepoint-server-recovery.blogspot.com/2010/12/use-backup-restore-commands-to-recover.html"><b>Stsadm command</b></a> in my earlier post. Today I am going to share about Windows PowerShell tool. The preferred way to take backups in SharePoint Server 2010 is by using windows PowerShell & can also schedule the backup using Windows PowerShell.</span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">To back up a server farm by using Windows PowerShell. Use Backup-SPFarm command:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /><i style="color: blue;"> </i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><i style="color: blue;">Backup-SPFarm -directory <UNC File Share> -BackupMethod <Full | Differential></i></span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The backups taken by PowerShell can be restored by Central Administration or by using the PowerShell Script. Use Restore-SPFarm commandlet. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The UNC share where you configured your backup, have more than one backup. So to restore by PowerShell command, first you should specify the backup ID for the backup to restore. This process is followed by this command:</span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-size: small;">SharePoint provides lot of inbuilt utilities for backup/ restore, from a full farm level to list level. For any server farm, Planning for backup & restore is very important part and you need to carefully decide “which backup & restore strategy you should choose. These strategies works when you have your updated SharePoint backup, also won't work in some corruption cases due to severe corruption. There is no need to SharePoint Admin to spend countless hours to rebuild your entire production database, or worry about deploying a temporary SharePoint recovery farm, in this case, you should use Third party <a href="http://www.stellarinfo.com/database-recovery/sharepoint-recovery/sharepoint-server-recovery.php" rel="nofollow"><b>SharePoint Recovery</b></a> tools. Stellar Phoenix for SharePoint dramatically simplifies the process of restoring individual documents, articles, wikis, sites, sub-sites and folders. This software works in almost every SharePoint corruption scenarios.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
First you should know What is SharePoint Server Farm??</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SharePoint Server Farm includes many servers or as few as two servers. A SharePoint server farm divided in to three categories: SMALL, MEDIUM, LARGE. You can choose one category as per your requirement. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b> </b><br />
<b> SharePoint Server Farm</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
<b><i>Different Purposes of SharePoint Server Farm:</i></b><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Front End Web Server:</b> The Web server role provides Web content to clients.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Front End Application Server:</b> The application server role provides Office SharePoint Server 2007 services such as servicing search queries, and crawling and indexing content.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>SQL Database Server:</b> SQL Database Server save all content of SharePoint sites etc.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Domain controller:</b> Through this we can provide authorization and authentication services to users.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Small server farm consists of two-server, one servers hosts the Web front end and the application services, while the second server hosts the SQL Server database. <br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A medium server farm consists of a database server, an application server running Office SharePoint Server 2007, and one or two front-end Web servers running Office SharePoint Server 2007 and IIS. <br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A large server farm consists of two or more clustered database servers, several front-end Web servers running Office SharePoint Server 2007, and two or more application servers running Office SharePoint Server 2007. <br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If data of SharePoint Server farm get corrupted then it can be happen due to two main causes like:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
1. SQL Server Database get corrupt<br />
2. SharePoint Site get inaccessible<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Due to this, you are not able to perform lots of activities such as:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Not able to open SharePoint Site</li>
<li>Not able to open content database</li>
<li>Not able to open SQL Server database</li>
<li>Not Perform Any Activity at all & many more..</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
SharePoint Inbuilt utilities helps you to recover corrupt SharePoint data like </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
1. stsadm.exe<br />
2. Central Administration user interface<br />
3. SQL Server backup<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But Sometimes these utilities are not able to perform complete SharePoint data recovery. In this case, I have another suggestion that is use of <a href="http://www.stellarinfo.com/database-recovery/sharepoint-recovery/sharepoint-server-recovery.php" rel="nofollow"><b>SharePoint Server Recovery</b></a> Software. These Software’s recover data in most of the SharePoint corruption error conditions. No matters how big the farm, Software also recovers data from SharePoint Server Farm.</div>

It contains many sites and all have some common features like content types, web parts, shared permission, and galleries for templates. The main important point is that all the sites in site collection share a common navigation. All the sites are organized in hierarchy; a subsite is a single site in the collection and can inherit navigation and permission from its parent site. Sometimes, a database administrator is unable to access the site content due to corruption. A corrupt or damaged SharePoint site content can be recovered from the backup. <br />
<br />
<b>Important</b>: SharePoint site collection should be created by service administrator while a subsite can be created by the user of SharePoint site collection.<br />
<br />
Why Use this? SharePoint site collection is used for the better maintenance of group projects. Suppose you have several projects to manage. It is recommended you to create a SharePoint site collection and divide all the projects as subsite for the collection.<br />
<br />
Backup & Restore SharePoint Site Collection: Microsoft SharePoint services 3.0 offers a tool to backup and <a href="http://www.sharepoint-server-recovery.com/">recover SharePoint site collection</a> i.e. Stsadm command line tool. This tool is very fast and flexible to backup and recover SharePoint site collection content. <br />
<br />
<b>Backup SharePoint Site Collection</b>: You have to follow the below steps to take the backup of SharePoint site collection using Stsadm command line tool.<br />
</span></div><ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-size: small;">Change the directory “%COMMONPROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft shared\Web server extensions\12\Bin” on which SharePoint is installed.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Run this command “stsadm -o backup -url <URL name> -filename <\\server. name\folder name\file name> [-overwrite]” on command prompt.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Command prompt will show the message “backup completed successfully”.</span></li>
</ul><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
<b>Restore SharePoint Site Collection</b>: For restoring SharePoint site collection, you have to follow the steps as shown below:<br />
</span></div><ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-size: small;">Change the directory “%COMMONPROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft shared\Web server extensions\12\Bin” on which SharePoint is installed.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Run this command “stsadm -o restore -url <URL name> -filename <UNC path>” on command prompt.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">If prompt ask for id & password then type correct id & password.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Command prompt will show the message “restore completed successfully”.</span></li>
</ul><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
Note: To perform backup and restore operation on SharePoint site collection, database administrator must be the member of administrator group on the local computer.</span></div></div>Mark Williumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14377582145723925411noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049906691438049799.post-63983168564376986422011-08-25T01:38:00.000-07:002013-09-19T03:12:59.468-07:00How to Recover a Corrupt SharePoint Web Application in SharePoint Server 2010<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">“How to recover a SharePoint Web application” I have found most of the users have same query on internet about SharePoint. So I have decided to collect information about SharePoint to explain it for every reader who wants to recover a corrupt SharePoint. Here I tried to explain this error solution. I request you to read this post completely to get the solution of this error. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
A SharePoint web application is the collection of SharePoint Site Collection, So SharePoint web application contains multiple group of sites. If SharePoint web application gets corrupt, it means all SharePoint sites get corrupted & you are not able to access your SharePoint site.<br />
</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">You have multiple solution of this error message but in my point of view, this is the one of the easiest way & will save you some time to resolve this error message. <br />
</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">A web application can have multiple content databases associated with it. First create a new web application and then use updated backup of the content database and restored it using a new name. Then attach that content database to the new web application. You can attach the content database by using the STSADM -o AddContentDB. Under certain circumstances, the AddContentDB Stsadm operation may fail. These circumstances include combinations of significant site collection size, user traffic, and SQL Server load. When the AddContentDB command fails, both the source and destination databases can be corrupted.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
If you use AddContentDB, make sure that:</span></div>
<ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You should have back up of both the source and target databases before using this operation.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Set the site collection to be read-only before using AddContentDB.</span></li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">This method only works when you have updated backup of your content database. If you don't have backup, then you have one another solution to resolve this error called as <a href="http://www.stellarinfo.com/database-recovery/sharepoint-recovery/sharepoint-server-recovery.php" rel="nofollow">SharePoint Recovery Software</a>. Here I would like to introduce a software which recover SharePoint web collection step by step, called as Stellar Phoenix SharePoint Server Recovery Software. <br />
</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">It recovers corrupt SharePoint web application Step by Step. It recovers one by one SharePoint sites that are situated in SharePoint web application. After recovering all corrupt SharePoint sites(full SharePoint web application), it also attach it to a new SharePoint web application. It supports SharePoint 2010 & 2007.</span></div>
