Stellar Phoenix SharePoint Recovery Tool

SharePoint is a great tool that includes multiple modules to streamlining and tracking a number of tasks, and become a popular enterprise application to enhance the overall productivity. SharePoint is collaboration of multiple applications along with enhanced data security and backup technologies, that make it easy to manage for the administrator.

Although, SharePoint offers full farm backup options such as web-based Central Administration backup and restore, command-line backup tool stsadm.exe and SharePoint Designer. But still, people do not bother to take backup due its high security measures and corruption resistance nature, which may lead to data loss situation in case of disaster. Since these cases are in good numbers, therefor, many data recovery developers start investing in the platforms that can handle recovery of SharePoint database without thinking about the size of total database. As no manual solution offers that level of accuracy without backup, therefore, a third-party solution could surely be an intelligent choice. This review represents the most notable third-party SharePoint recovery solutions available on the market.

Being a SharePoint administrator, I know how complex it is to handle the inaccessibility in its database. Therefore, I have tested multiple SharePoint recovery products before choosing one for my database. Stellar Phoenix SharePoint Recovery is a reliable and efficient utility according to my analysis. In order to test its efficiency I have created a copy of my inaccessible database file (2 TB).

Structure of the product:

Interface

The software has a very simple interface that interacts with you and prompts you to initiate the process easily. The main interface displays two options for recovering SharePoint data: Complete Repair' and 'Document Recovery'. You can choose accordingly, I have preferred Complete Repair option for my database.

 
 
Options to choose the file:

The next screen prompts you the options select and search SQL Server (.MDF) files. Either you can go with 'Select File' to select a SharePoint database to initiate repair or choose 'Search File' to locate the MDF file in a specific drive in case you don't know the location. I have chosen the first option as I know the file location, clicked on 'Scan' to start the scanning process.
 

 

Preview File

Once the scan is finished, a tree structured SharePoint database tables displayed in the left pane. I have checked my important tables; the list includes all of them. The listed tables can be previewed in the right pane by a single click. In order to begin the repair you need to select the database and click 'Repair' option.
 

Save Module

After initiating repair, the next dialog box asks you the SQL Server name/Instance and the desired destination. You can click 'Browse' to select a destination. A dialog box will confirm the successful process.

Attach the database to Web Application

This module is really a bonus from
Stellar Data Recovery to all SharePoint users. After successful repair the software asks you to attach the repaired database to web application. If you want to do it select 'Yes' option, and type URL of application along with name of the corrupt database, and SQL Server Instance name in a dialog box and click 'OK' to proceed. After successful processing, you will be able to access the repaired database with web application.
