Recover SharePoint
Applies To: Opalis 6.3
The Recover SharePoint object is used to configure a policy that recovers a SharePoint farm (configuration and data) to its original location or to a network folder.
Be aware that the term Network Folder is used in this integration pack in the same way that it is used in the Data Protection Manager user interface. Choosing Network Folder recovers to a local path on a production server. Therefore, the selection of Network Folder requires the name of a production server and a local path on that production server.
For the procedure to configure this object, see: To Configure the Recover SharePoint Object.
