Abstract
A method for backing up and restoring search service applications (SSAs) is provided that backs up an SSA topology extensible markup language (XML) file to a backup system. The method then backs up an SSA search topology XML file to the backup system and backs up SSA databases to the backup system. An application programming interface (API) is queried to discover internet information services (IIS) virtual directories associated with the SSA. Discovered IIS virtual directories associated with the SSA are backed up to the backup system IIS configuration data, IIS metabase data and registry data for the SSA are also backed up to the backup system. A similar process is utilized to restore this data to enable the recovery of an SSA.
