We are actually doing individual backups of team and my sites twice a week via a script that calls stsadm -o enumsites for the web application that contains all the sites we want to backup, then loops through the result set and calls stsadm -o backup on each of these. We then tar zip these up and back it up. Then if need to do a restore of an individual site we have the individual backup...
This is in addition to the daily sql backups that also occur. The reason why we also do the individual backups is just so that it is quicker/easier to restore an individual team site if required, ie rather than restore the sql backup to some other location, find the site you are interested in, and move copy this to whereever it needs to go... Hope that helps!

If at the application/farm level, what are you using to be able to restore a specific site without having to perform a full restore? I’m still desperately seeking my Quest Recovery Manager demo which allows searching across multiple existing backups (SQL, CA/stsadm, Quest LiteSpeed) and restoring sites, libraries or items (in-place, out-of-place, file share etc). Apparently Joel Olsen recently demoed this somewhere but I haven’t been able to find the download.

I think we found that publishing sites were not backed up before they were deleted, however ordinary team sites were. We have not implemented it though as we are backing up team and my sites twice a week. Peter Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2009 09:21:13 +1100 From: [email protected] Subject: Site Deletion [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED] To: [email protected] Hi, I am trying to design an archive strategy for a site I’m working on that will save items that have been deleted. The pages/documents are fine, cause they go into the recycling bin, but has anyone needed to do something like this for site deletion? They also want the ability to intercept site deletions and move them into another site.
