Features depend on scope... if they are only site related, then you can only 
use them on the site they are deployed to.  Only global features let you use 
them everywhere and in most cases my features are not global.  Global features 
cause an IISReset on all servers in the farm when deploying/retracting...

Subject: SharePoint backups

Hi all,

It’s quite possible I’m a complete idiot but after struggling for some time 
with backup errors about missing feature XML files, I had a revelation…and 
thought I’d be silly enough to share it with you all.

The feature.xml file was indeed missing because the feature it referred to was 
not installed on the Central Administration server I was running stsadm on.

It then occurred to me…what if I try running it on one of the WFEs where the 
feature IS installed. Hey presto!

Well you learn something new every day don’t you? At least I do. :)

OK. Yes. I am an idiot.
