CREATE A SITE COLLECTION BACKUP AND RESTORE IN SHAREPONT

          HI, HERE I WILL EXPLAIN HOW TO CREATE A SITE COLLECTION BACKUP FROM ONE SITE, AND RESTORE IT INTO ANOTHER SITE COLLECTION.

you can do it by sharepoint powershell.

Backup site collection:

Open site powershell any type the following command.

Backup-spsite <fullurl which u want to backup> -path  <location:filename.bak>

Restore site collection:

If you restore it in a blank site then.

Open site powershell any type the following command.

Restore-spsite <fullurl whereu want to restore> -path <location:filename.bak>

that's it. It will restore it.

Or if you restore in a team site or some data existing  site then

Open site powershell any type the following command.

Restore-spsite <fullurl whereu want to restore> -path <location:filename.bak>  -force

and it will ask you for conformation. type y. and it will automatically restore in that site.
 That's it you restore it..
