With System Center 2012 – Data Protection Manager (DPM), you can backup and restore SharePoint Search created by Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007.

Protect Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Search and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 SSP

DPM recognizes and lists the Microsoft Office SharePoint Shared Service Provider (SSP) instance when you create a protection group for the SharePoint farm. The following procedure lists the steps to take to protect a computer that runs Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 SSP.

To Protect a Computer that runs Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 SSP

  1. To enable SPSearch protection on the protected computer, use ConfigureSharePoint.exe. For more information about ConfigureSharePoint.exe, see Using ConfigureSharePoint.

  2. To protect the Microsoft Office SharePoint Server SSP instance, which is listed under the SharePoint farm in which it was created, use the Create New Protection Group wizard.

Note

During the backup process, DPM pauses the index crawling and all background processes. After the backup process is complete, DPM automatically resumes these processes. This procedure does not affect the search function.
