Backing Up Windows Server 2012 Roles
Many Windows Server 2012 role services store configuration and status data in separate files or databases located in various locations on the boot volume. If a scheduled backup is configured to run a full backup or a bare metal recovery backup, this includes all boot, system, and data volumes used by the system as well as any application data and the system state necessary for a complete PC restore. A few services also provide alternative backup and restore options, and should be leveraged to provide additional recovery options in the event of a service failure, as opposed to a full system failure.
