About protecting SharePoint Server data with VMware backups
Through a VMware backup policy, NetBackup can create consistent full backups of a SharePoint Server that resides on a virtual machine. From one VMware backup the following restore options are available: restore of the .vmdk (disk level), SFR restore (file-level recovery), SharePoint database restore, or SharePoint granular-level restore (GRT).
To protect a supported application with a VMware policy the Application State Capture (ASC) job executes after the VMware discovery job and before the snapshot job(s). This ASC job contacts the NetBackup client on the guest virtual machine. The ASC job collects and catalogs application-specific data that is needed for application recovery and granular recovery (GRT) functionality.
More information is available on the ASC job and its associated logs.
