Restoring SharePoint backups

The SharePoint agent supports restore of full and differential backups. As with SharePoint backups, the agent leverages STSADM or PowerShell (SharePoint 2013 and higher ) to perform restore operations. Restores occur in two phases. First, backups are unfolded to a local backup system share (/backups/rae/<client_name>/<instance>). In the second phase, the agent invokes STSADM or PowerShell commands to restore back to the SharePoint clients.
