My intention is to restore it out-of-place to a newly created site collection at the root of a managed path.
e.g. domain.com/site1 -> domain.com/site2 Hoping this is possible. If not, are there any limitations to the import/export command? None are stated. BTW Sezai, Nathan et al, the new site collection works like a charm and has none of the permission or access issues being experienced in the other one. I believe something went screwy with the security groups in the original import.

However I have had it fail a few time due to app pools being recycled or people accessing the site (or even a search crawl). Do you need to restore it or are you just backing it up? If it's backup, it's probably easier to backup the SQL database itself. Much quicker and safer. Just make sure the site is locked at the time though. ________________________________ From: ozmoss@ozmoss.com [mailto:ozm...@ozmoss.com] On Behalf Of Paul Noone Sent: Friday, 12 June 2009 9:05 AM To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com Subject: Backup over 15GB using built-in tools Hi all, I've got a site collection I want to backup but MS advise that stsadm backup operation shouldn't be used for site collections larger than 15GB. Does this limit only apply to site collections? i.e. is it safe to backup the entire web app instead?
