Do these need to be backed up ?

Hi Alll

I’ve got a couple of indexing clients that were created as part of the configuration of O365 backup for Exchange and Teams. But the “No backup for last X days” alert is complaining because they haven’t been backed up. The question is, do they need to be backed up, or should I clear the “Enable Backup” flag on Activity Control ?

As I understand it, the SOLR indexes (for exchange at least) are forever incremental, and if damaged, will rebuild from scratch. But if they’re backed up, does that get circumvented and is the restore performed or the rebuild ?

 

Thanks for the input

Simon

Hello @Simon Delicata 

Big Data Apps are pseudoclients for Indexing Servers hosting the index data for their associated V2 Indexing Policies. They should be backed up regularly when the Index Backup Schedule runs.

Can you confirm if they are assocaited to the schedule? The report should also give an indication of why they failed to backup if I recall correctly.
