Consider the following when protecting SharePoint environments:
• The SharePoint agent supports full and differential backups. Incrementals, including the incremental forever backup strategy, are not supported.
• Free space equivalent to twice the size of the backup is required on the local share for backup processing. If adequate space is not available, the backup fails.
• Only one backup or restore operation per SharePoint farm can run at any given time.
• For a given farm, any backups initiated while a restore is in progress will fail. Once the restore completes, backups can be run for the farm.
• For a given farm, any restores initiated while a backup is in progress will fail. Once the backup completes, restores can be run for the farm.
• For a given farm, any backups initiated while a backup is in progress will fail.
• Windows Instant Recovery is not supported for Windows SharePoint environments.
