One of our developers’
created a test site collection on Test Environment and next day the site
collection was missing.
Thankfully we
had Service Pack 1 rolled out on our
various environments which came handy, apart from the regular nightly backup's.
With Service
Pack 1, there is a nice feature to restore a deleted site or site collection;
here is what we did to restore the site collection
Launch SharePoint Management Shell
Run the
command
Get-SPDeletedSite -Identity /sites/ProjectCentre
This displays
the following details, this is good to have info but would have appreciated if
it had the information about what User / Service Account deleted the site collection
Anyways,
found the site collection got deleted at 23:10:54. Checked the Timer Job history for
the duration from 23:00 to 23:30, no jobs found which could do this, will have a look at ULS to find what happened.
Run the following
command to restore the site collection
Restore-SPDeletedSite -Identity /sites/ProjectCentre
Or
Get-SPDeletedSite -Identity
/sites/ProjectCentre | Restore-SPDeletedSite
