Backup and Restore Strategies

Your backup and restore strategy should be defined before your system design is completed. The availability and recoverability levels of your SharePoint Server 2007 content can greatly affect how you architect and implement your solution. If you haven’t backed up your content, you won’t be able to restore it. If you are running nightly backups, you can’t restore content deleted mid-day. If you are reading this after you have already installed, then you need to understand that your backup and restore strategies depend upon how you installed SharePoint Server 2007. After detailing your restore strategy, you may find it necessary to re-architect portions of your server farm.
