We have a sharepoint portal where there is a need of nightly backup(not point of failure).
Now if we just take content db backup(excluding workflow manager, search and user profile) and in case server crashes and we rebuild another farm and restore this DB(we will do user profile sync again on new server and will setup workflow manager)
will it have proper users in assigned to columns of different sharepoint lists on new server? or do we also have to take user profile DB backup. We do not use search or long running workflows so thats not needed but important question is about 50k user profiles and hundreds assigned to columns and other people/profile columns in sharepoint list.
