Introducing the Agent

Arcserve Backup is a comprehensive, distributed storage solution for applications, databases, distributed servers, and file systems. It provides backup and restore capabilities for databases, business-critical applications, and network clients.

Among the agents Arcserve Backup offers is the Arcserve Backup Agent for Microsoft SharePoint Server. This agent let you back up and restore Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010/2013, Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010, and Microsoft SharePoint Service 3.0 data.

Although SharePoint environments can be complex and distributed across a number of machines, the agent provides full protection of SharePoint installations by consolidating all SharePoint data into a single node in the interface on the Arcserve Backup server. SharePoint content consists of distributed SharePoint databases, Single Sign-On (SSO), and search indexes. The agent lets you use the features of Arcserve Backup to easily manage the backup and restore of all SharePoint data on your network.
