Backup and Restore Site in SharePoint 2003

Unclaimed Blog — Thu, 02 Nov 2006 00:04:00 GMT

Backup and Restore in SharePoint is possible through the following tools.

Stsadm.exe

Smigrate.exe

Backup using stsadm.exe

Use the Stsadm.exe command-line tool to backup or restore a site. The Stsadm.exe tool takes the following parameters.

Parameter Description

filename	Yes	Name of the backup file. For example, backup.dat
-url	Yes	URL of the Web site. For example, http://server_name/site
-overwrite	No	Overwrite any existing backup file or Web site. If you do not specify this parameter and a backup file or Web site exists, the backup stops.

The -filename parameter can take any of the following types of information:

Filename, such as backup.dat
Path on the local hard drive, such as local_drive:\path_name\file_name.dat
Path on a network share

To perform a simple backup of a site, use the following syntax:

stsadm.exe -o backup -url http://server_name/site -filename file_name.dat

To back up a site and overwrite an existing backup file, use the following syntax:

stsadm.exe -o backup -url http://server_name/site -filename local_drive:\path_name\file_name.dat -overwrite

Restore Using stsadm.exe

To restore a site, you use the restore operation with the Stsadm.exe command-line tool. The restore operation takes the following parameters:
 
Parameter               Description
-filename yes Name of the backup file. For example, backup.dat
-url yes URL of the Web site. For example, http://server_name/site
-overwrite no Overwrite any existing backup file or Web site. If you do not specify this parameter and a backup file or Web site exists, the restore operation stops.
You have three options for restoring sites from a backup.
    You can restore a site to an existing site.
  You can restore a site to a new site on the same server.
  You can restore a site to a separate server, with a separate installation of Windows SharePoint Services that uses a copy of the configuration database from the original server.

Parameter		Description
-filename	yes	Name of the backup file. For example, backup.dat
-url	yes	URL of the Web site. For example, http://server_name/site
-overwrite	no	Overwrite any existing backup file or Web site. If you do not specify this parameter and a backup file or Web site exists, the restore operation stops.

To restore a site from a backup file, either to a new site or a separate server, use the following syntax:

stsadm.exe -o restore -url http://server_name/site -filename file_name.dat

To restore a site from a backup file on a server share, and to overwrite any existing site at the new location, use the following syntax:

stsadm.exe -o restore -url http://server_name/site -filename \\share\folder\file_name.dat -overwrite

Backup Using Smigrate.exe

smigrate.exe -w <Web site URL> -f <backup filename> [-e -y -u <username> -pw <password>]
 
For example, 
   To create a backup of http://mysps/samplesite1 to a file called backup.fwp at the root of the c:\ drive, without including any subwebs of the Web site, you would type the following:
 
smigrate.exe -w http://mysps/samplesite1 -f c:\backup.fwp -e
 
 
Restore Using Smigrate.exe
 
To restore a site, you use Smigrate.exe with the following parameters:
 
Syntax
 
   smigrate.exe -r -w <Web site URL> -f <backup filename> -u <username> -pw <password>]
 
Example, to restore the above site to http://newserver/samplesite2, you would use type the following:
 
   smigrate.exe -r -w http://newserver/samplesite2 -f c:\backup.fwp
