There are many articles in the web by describing Content Deployment in SharePoint 2010. But most of the time ( In my case it do not work fine always in first time :-( )  it is not working property and giving plenty of errors which direct us to restoring the backup rather than trying Content Deployment in the SharePoint Server. Here I'm going to my experiences and how I'm resolving those errors and little bit of background about the  SharePoint Content Deployment. Luckily i have manage to successfully proceed with the SharePoint Content Deployment most of the time. What is SharePoint Content Deployment   Content deploy can be use to export (deploy) content from one site collection to another site collection. content deployment is taking care of following contents in the source site collection. Web pages – Deploy corresponding images styles , master pages and etc. libraries lists resources Content Deployment do not deploy programs assemblies features ...

sometimes you may encountered with problems such as restoring failures and  content deployment failures thus it is better to repair the database and see where is there any orphan objects in the site collection. For that go to SharePoint Management Shell as an administrator , use following command stsadm -o databaserepair -url <url name> -databasename <database name> Example, here no Orphaned Objects found if they are listed run the command with deletecorruption option. stsadm -o databaserepair -url <url name> -databasename <database name> -deletecorruption

Use following power shell command to  search and get the SharePoint Feature. Get-SPFeature -Identity ID

This issue is also generate the following event log. Application Server Administration job failed for service instance Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchServiceInstance Reason: Requested registry access is not allowed. Technical Support Details: System.Security.SecurityException: Requested registry access is not allowed.    at Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchServiceInstance.Synchronize()    at Microsoft.Office.Server.Administration.ApplicationServerJob.ProvisionLocalSharedServiceInstances(Boolean isAdministrationServiceJob) these might be other reason also like not having correct permission to the application pool running user. But in my case i solved it by running the SharePoint Product Configuration Wizard .
