Backup and Restore Project Server 2007

  • Article

This post comes to us courtesy of Mark Shea of our Office Assistance area.

Introduction

This post will guide you through the Microsoft Office Project Server 2007 backup and restore process by using the the SharePoint Central Administration Web site.

Set up a file share

If you do not already have a remote file share to store the backup files, you must set one up before backing up your environment.

Set up a remote file share

  1. (Recommended) Make sure SQL 'Setup server account' is using a domain account; see SQL Server books online on how to do it.
  2. Verify that the remote file share can be accessed from both the SQL Server computer and the computer that is hosting Central Administration.
  3. On the remote file server, create a directory and share it out. Be sure to give it access permissions for the account you will be using to backup and restore.
  4. On the Share Permissions tab of file share properties, grant the accounts listed below, Change and Read rights.
  5. On the Security tab of the file share Properties, grant the accounts listed below all the rights except Full Control.

Create required accounts

Accounts needed:

  • SQL server account (if “Local system” is the SQL service account, you must grant permission to the SQL server computer.).
  • Login account (required to do backup and restore using the command prompt).
  • The Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 front-end server account, such as <domain>\<server name>$ (required to do backup and restore using the user interface).
  • The central administrator pool account (required to do backup and restore using the user interface).
  • The Timer service account (requested by UI).

Note The central administrator pool and the Timer service use the same user account.

Note If you receive any errors during the backup or restore process, you must delete the failed “Backup/Restore” timer job before you can run the next backup or restore process. The URL for the Timer service jobs is:

https://<adminsite:port>/_admin/ServiceJobDefinitions.aspx.

Note You do not have to delete the Timer service job if you did the Project Server 2007 backup or restore by using the stsadm.exe command-line tool.

Note The server farm should be taken offline prior to backup.

Back up your environment

To back up your Project Server 2007 installation, do the following:

  1. Navigate to Central Administration; the URL looks like https://<server_name>:port/default.aspx.

  2. Click Operations on the top navigation bar.

  3. In the Backup and Restore section of the Operations page, click Perform a Backup.

  4. On the Select Component to Backup page, choose the components you want to back up, such as Farm or an individual site. You can select any one component and all components under it.

  5. When you have selected all the components you want to back up, click Start Backup Process.

    On the Start Backup page, under Backup File Location, enter the UNC path to the backup folder.

  6. Click OK

  7. You can view the backup job status on the backup status page, by clicking Refresh. The page will also refresh every 30 seconds automatically. Backup and Restore is a Timer service job, so it may take few seconds for the backup to start

  8. If you receive any errors, you can find more information by looking in spbackup.log at the UNC path you specified above

Restoring a Project Server 2007 deployment

This section guides you through the Microsoft Office Project Server 2007 restoration process using Central Administration. It describes how to restore over the original server farm. This document does not describe a migration of Project Server 2007 data.

Restore to the original farm

  1. Navigate to Central Administration; the URL looks like https://<server_name>:port/default.aspx.

     

  2. Operations on the top navigation bar.

  3. In the Backup and Restore section of the Operations page, click Restore from backup.

  4. On the Restore from Backup: Step 1: Select Backup File page, under Backup File Location, enter the UNC path to the backup folder.

  5. On the Restore from Backup: Step 2: Select Backup Package to Restore page, choose the target backup package and click Start Restore Process.

  6. On the Restore from Backup: Step 3: Select Component to Restore page, choose the restore level (Farm, Service, Database or SSP) and click Start Restore Process.

  7. On the Restore from Backup: Step 4: Select Restore Options page, select Overwrite (Create new is the default value) and click OK in the pop-up dialog.

  8. Under New Names, enter the user name and password for the Web applications listed on the page.

  9. Click OK.

    Having had a go at restoring a 2007 system already I can tell you that all you need is the sharepoint content database as well as the project databases.  From this you can recover everything.

    Have set up a very low security share (everyone - change + read) NTFS set similarly on a File Server, initiated the backup but nothing started. Windows SharePoint Services Timer - Started (Domain Acc OK) Windows SharePoint Services VSS Writer - Manual (Local System) SQL Server VSS Writer - Manual (Local System) Attempted with stsadm.exe to same share. The backup stalls at: [2/2/2007 1:28:24 PM]: Verbose: Starting object: Windows SharePoint Services Help Search. [2/2/2007 1:28:25 PM]: Progress: [Windows SharePoint Services Help Search] 50 percent complete. [2/2/2007 1:28:25 PM]: Verbose: Starting object: Search instance. [2/2/2007 1:28:26 PM]: Progress: [Search instance] 50 percent complete. Any ideas why either of these would not work? Thanks Justin

    Hi, I have a question about restoring a Project Server site. I've got the backups of the Web application(content db and all) and the project Web access site(4 project dbs). Now in order to restore the same environment, do I need to restore the web application first and then follow it up with the project web access site? I ask this because on restore the Project webaccess site does not ask for any web application to restore under. Does it restore under a web application with the same name(port) as it was under before?

    Hello Treb, Thank you for the clear and helpful article. I follow your step by step instructions to restore Project Server 2007 from my backup. The only difference is that I put the backup in a local folder. Then I uninstalled Office project server completely, also deleted all the data in the local database folder. Then I reinstalled Project Server again using basic setup. I ensured SQL server account have full permissions on the data files and started full restore from the backup folder. Unfortunately I received errors that some objects already exists no matter I choose override option. Why is that. Please help, what I miss ? Here is one sample error :

Error: Object SharedServices1 failed in event OnRestore. For more information, see the error log located in the backup directory. SPDuplicateObjectException: An object of the type Microsoft.Office.Server.Administration.SharedResourceProvider named "SharedServices1" already exists under the parent Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPFarm named "SharePoint_Config_1ac3f072-9b11-4c02-9586-67016efc0c24".  Rename your object or delete the existing object.

I also have the same for PWA feature also. These objects also never reach completed status. They stay on "Completing" forever. I'll appreciate any information you can post. Thank you. Alexander Tzvetanov

    If I wanted to copy one PWA configuration to another. How do you backup and restore the databases to another PWA provisioned site.  These steps looks like good for 1 to 1 backup and restore procedures.

    Dear Everybody, After I finally hadn't succeeded to backup and restore MS Project server neither all Sharepoint nor only PWA using the above instructions. I called the trouble help me. Unfortunately this particular blog's issuer also doesn't help. So I finally ran filemon/regmon and setup the Basic configuration of PWA. As a result I made 2 .bat files for backup and restore of the basic configuration. In my case Windoes and also PWA was installed on drive D:. My backup folder is located at D:ProjectServerBackup. If any of you also have trouble with backup/restore MSProject server. Try my way. Regards Alexander Tzvetanov Follows the backup and restore scripts: backup.bat

    hi there: I have two error during the restore. The backup of a single site don´t have problems. When I did the restore in a new stand alone Server, I have two error: Error 1: Object My site failed in event OnRestore. For more information, see the error log located in the backup directory. ArgumentException: The IIS Web Site you have selected is in use by SharePoint. You must select another port or hostname. Error 2: Object EDF_DB failed in event OnRestore. SqlException: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.  When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) Can Anybody help me? regards

    I am baffed witht the following situation and run completely out of ideas. I am trying to Backup a Project Server 2007 installation (complete Farm) but the backup process keeps failing with the following error. Cannot open backup device &#39;\vupsdb01ProjectServerBackupsspbr0000�0000017.bak&#39;. Operating system error 5(error not found). BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally. The installation is a small farm with Application Server and Database Server on seperate boxes. I have created a file share and given the logged in account, App Pool Account and DB Account secutiy and sharing rights to create/modify. I can access the file share from both computers. What baffles me is that the back up logs are written in the file share but it errors out. Any pointers much appreciated

    The instructions in this article are very clear. I was able to backup and restore sucessfully using the Central Admin. The job status screen showed 'Complete' without any errors. But when I access the pwa site it gives me a 'File not found exception' I have lloked at the PWA folder and all the files do not exist. I can access the subsites and by going to Top level sites I can still go to the main PWA site settings. --Any pointers on why I am getting the file not found error. Thanks in advance.

    I am trying to Backup a Project Server 2007 installation (complete Farm) but the backup process keeps failing with the following error. as well as on restore i got the same error Object sharepoint_config failed in event on restore Cannot open backup device &#39;\vupsdb01ProjectServerBackupsspbr0000�0000017.bak&#39;. Operating system error 3(error not found). BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally. The installation is a small farm with Application Server and Database Server on seperate boxes. I have created a file share and given the logged in account, App Pool Account and DB Account security and sharing rights to create/modify. I can access the file share from both computers. What baffles me is that when i create new site contents are written to database but on restore no contents are written to database.........Plz reply.......

    Backup and restore is obviously a very weak area of Project Server.  I know that the Project Server team wants us to avoid getting into the databases, but some transparency into what happens during database creation might be helpful (ie, what happens during the WSS synchronization timer job, what changes in the config database, etc).  It's great that the hotfixes are addressing custom field title properties and timephased actual work, but shouldn't backup and restore be priority #1?
