Server Cloud Backup

Back up your entire on-premise SharePoint Server environment or select site components - such as document libraries, lists, or individual folders - with full activity logs for each operation.

To back up your on-premise MS SharePoint Server,

1. Sign in to the IDrive 360 desktop application and click 'Server Backup'. A slider panel appears.
2. Select 'On-premise MS SharePoint' to launch the SharePoint backup/restore console. The 'MS SharePoint Backup' tab is selected by default.
   
3. Choose a backup destination: 'Online Backup', 'Local Backup', or 'IDrive^® 360 Express™'.
   

   Note:

   • Online Backup uploads data to the IDrive 360 cloud.
   • Local Backup and IDrive^® 360 Express™ save the data to a local storage path.
4. From the list of available websites and applications, select the components you want to protect, and provide the local backup path.
5. Select either 'Online Backup' or 'Local Backup', then click 'Schedule Now'.
   When prompted, specify the temporary local backup directory, and confirm the schedule.
   

   Note: A '.ServerBackup' folder is automatically created when a local backup begins.

6. The 'Scheduler' window appears, allowing you to configure a future schedule or initiate an immediate backup for the selected SharePoint sites.
