Configuring the integration
For details on how to configure the Data Protector VSS integration, see the HP Data Protector
integration guide for Microsoft applications and the HP Data Protector zero downtime backup
integration guide.
Configuring user accounts
Create or identify a Windows domain user account that has Windows administrative rights on the
front-end Web server system on which you plan to run the Data Protector PowerShell script. This
user must also be granted Microsoft SharePoint Server administrative rights and must be added to
the Data Protector admin user group.
Backup
To back up Microsoft SharePoint Server data, create backup specifications and start backup
sessions using the Data Protector PowerShell script moss_backup.ps1.
Limitations
Starting backup sessions using the Data Protector GUI or CLI is not supported.
The only supported backup type is Full backup.
