NetBackup™ for Microsoft SharePoint Server Administrator's Guide

SharePoint software requirements

Verify the following regarding the SharePoint server software on the NetBackup server or client:

  • The SharePoint server software must be installed and operational.

    Refer to the Application/Database Agent Compatibility List for supported versions of the SharePoint server software.

  • For NetBackup 11.1 and later and for SharePoint versions 2016 and later, the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 is installed on the SharePoint servers.

  • When you use multiple front-end SharePoint servers, all front-end server websites must be uniformly identified in IIS. Identify the sites with either host headers or IP addresses, but not both. An environment that mixes host headers and IP addresses across multiple front-end servers is not supported.

  • To prevent restore failures, the IIS Default Application Pool identity must be a valid SharePoint user ID.

  • The SharePoint user should be an administrator user account.
