Can You restore a farm from a SharePoint backup?
You can restore the configuration from a farm backup that used either the Backup content and configuration settings option or the Backup only configuration settings option. In earlier versions of SharePoint, you could not restore the configuration database and, therefore, you could not restore the configuration of a farm.
Can You restore a farm from one version to another?
You cannot use a backup made from one version to restore to another version. You cannot use a backup made from one version to upgrade to another version. The update level of the farm to which you restore cannot be lower than the update level of a backup. The destination farm must have the same or newer update level.
How often should I back up my farm?
The backup tool that you use depends on the kind of environment that you have deployed, your backup schedule requirements, and service level agreements that you have with your organization. We recommend that you regularly back up the complete farm by backing up both the configuration and content.
