I posted the same question on the Symantec Forums, and was able to get some
resolution to the problem.
There is an EEB provided by Symantec Support, and this does indeed fix the
issue (for me anyway). I haven't had a chance to try the restore yet (I'm
waiting on my Sharepoint Admin), but I am able to browse the backups and drill
down to a document level.
To those of you trying to backup Sharepoint components would be wise to look at
the bpresolver logs as this was key to me understanding the directives I could
use, and the correct syntax for the filelist. The documentation is VERY poor
in regards to MOSS 2007. To get all the information required, I initially
backed up the whole sharepoint environment by using one of the front end
servers, and the following directive, and then looking back through the log to
find all the sub-component syntax:
Microsoft SharePoint Resources:\*
If the backup doesn't work with with above directive, then you have a
permission/configuration issue somewhere.
The ONLY directive you can use for document level backups is (example site is
called Main, yours will surely differ!):
Microsoft Sharepoint Resources:\Windows SharePoint Services Web
Application\Sharepoint - Main\*
NOTE: You can ONLY have one site per policy, which means you can't use
...\Sharepoint*\* for instance, to cut down on the number of policies.
Michael, in answer to your question about NFS, it doesn't play a part in the
backup process, only when you come to restore. From talking to support, I am
under the impression that when a restore is initiated (providing you have
backed up to disk), the NetBackup server will share the DSU using some
arbitrary name, and then the client will mount that share up locally, and then
basically extract the file(s) you need.
Good luck!
