Standalone Cove Data Protection (Cove) has replaced Backup and Recovery. If Backup and Recovery is enabled for your devices, the options shown here are still available.

If Backup and Recovery options do not appear in N-sight RMM, use Cove instead.

To start a 30-day free trial of Cove:

  1. Open the app switcher in the Product Bar.
  2. Select Cove Data Protection (Cove).

When installed, the Backup Manager automatically detects if the device is running Microsoft Sharepoint (VSS), and automatically adds it as a selectable Data Source.

To backup Microsoft Sharepoint (VSS):

  1. Open the Backup Manager
  2. Navigate to the Backup tab
  3. Click Add against the Microsoft SharePoint
  4. Expand the Microsoft SharePoint (VSS) node to select the environment to backup
  5. In Backup & Recovery 2014 it may be necessary to click the SharePoint name to display the node structure

  6. Configure the Microsoft SharePoint (VSS)Schedule and Save
  7. Amend the Backup & Recovery Check to take account of the increased backup jobs

To amend the selected data sources:

  1. Open the Backup Manager
  2. Go to the Backup tab
  3. Click Edit
  4. Expand the node and change the selection as you require and Save
