Recover project added in tfs after TFS 11.0 (2012) server crash

I am using Team foundation server 2021. I do take backup of all TFS databases regularly. So now in case of disaster recovery (in case full machine gets crash) how can i use this backup to recover TFS and all collection etc. I want easy and the best approach .

I have seen so many articles in microsoft website but nothing is really so helpful and difficult to understand. So please suggest a better tutorial or procedure to do it

When taking a backup of a running TFS instance always backup all databases. In cases of a disaster situation the only way to recover, is to restore all databases and re-run the TFS Application Tier install.

There is ample guidance available, plus the Backup tool that was introduced in the product with TFS 2012.2 is also available for older versions (2012 rtm and update 1) as part of the Team Foundation Power tools.

The guidance you should follow is that for either:

I guess that you have TFS2012 Update 1 (there is no 2011 version). You should upgrade to TFS2012.2 which has the Scheduled Backups feature included.
