Appendices of the Office Communications Server 2007 Backup Guide

Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 and Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 will reach end of support on January 9, 2018. To stay supported, you will need to upgrade. For more information, see Resources to help you upgrade your Office 2007 servers and clients.

The backup and restoration plan for your organization should contain details about how and when you back up data and settings. This information is required for administrators to schedule and complete backups, as well as by personnel who restore databases, servers, or pools, in the event of loss of service. In addition to modifying the procedures in this guide to reflect the actual backup and restoration procedures for your organization, you can use the worksheets in these appendices to record the information required to perform backup and restoration procedures. The appendices provided in this section include the following:

  • Backup and restoration worksheet for Standard Edition server environments

  • Backup and restoration worksheet for Enterprise pools, consolidated configuration

  • Backup and restoration worksheet for Enterprise pools, expanded configuration

  • Secondary site setup worksheet

These appendices cover only the information required to restore databases and servers. For other restoration information, such as the information required to reinstall operating systems and other software, use the deployment plans and backup and restore plan of your organization to address these requirements. These worksheets are only a starting point. You should tailor the worksheets in these appendices as appropriate to match your deployment and backup and restoration requirements.
