Restoring Application Items from Microsoft SharePoint

Veeam Backup Free Edition integrates with Veeam Explorer for Microsoft SharePoint — a tool that lets you browse Microsoft SharePoint content databases in VM disks located on storage snapshots and restore documents, items and document libraries you need.

Before you can start working with Veeam Explorer for Microsoft SharePoint, you need to extract the Microsoft SharePoint content database (MDF file) from the storage snapshot. To do this, you can perform VM guest OS files recovery for the virtualized Microsoft SharePoint server, manually locate the content database and open it in Veeam Explorer for Microsoft SharePoint. For more information, see Opening Content Database Manually.
