Manual method

For each of the following agents, you must create the specified firewall rules to allow traffic on ports used by RMAD. For descriptions of each firewall rule, see the table below.


Backup Agent:

  • If you have a preinstalled Backup Agent, create Rule 3 and specify BackupAgent64.exe in the Program path parameter.

  • If you have an automatic Backup Agent installation, create Rule 3 and specify ErdAgent.exe instead of <backup agent> in the Program path parameter.

  • If you use the specified Backup Agent port, you need to configure Rule 1 and Rule 3. In Rule 3, specify <specific TCP port> for the Backup Agent in the Local ports parameter.

  • If you use the RPC dynamic port range for the Backup Agent, configure Rule 1, Rule 2, and Rule 3. In Rule 3, specify the <RPC dynamic port range> for the Backup Agent in the Local ports parameter.

Online Restore Agent:

  • Configure Rule 4 and specify OnlineRestoreAdapter.exe in the Program path parameter.

  • If you use the specified Online Restore Agent port, configure Rule 1 and Rule 4. In Rule 4, specify <specific TCP port> for the Online Restore Agent in the Local ports parameter.

  • If the RPC dynamic port range is used for the Online Restore Agent , configure Rule 1, Rule 2, and Rule 4. In Rule 4, specify <RPC dynamic port range> for the Online Restore Agent in the Local ports parameter.

Offline Restore Agent:

  • Configure Rule 5 and specify RstAgent.exe in the Program path parameter.

  • If you use the specified Offline Restore Agent port, you need to configure Rule 1 and Rule 5. In Rule 5, specify <specific TCP port> for the Offline Restore Agent in the Local ports parameter.

  • If you use the RPC dynamic port range for the Offline Restore Agent , configure Rule 1, Rule 2, and Rule 5. In Rule 5, specify <RPC dynamic port range> for the Offline Restore Agent in the Local ports parameter.

Management Agent:

  • Configure Rule 6 and specify the ManagementAgent.exe in the Program path parameter.

  • If you use the specified Backup Agent port, configure Rule 1 and Rule 6. In Rule 6, specify <specific TCP port> for the Management Agent in the Local ports parameter.

  • If you use the RPC dynamic port range for the Management Agent, configure Rule 1, Rule 2, and Rule 6. In Rule 6, specify <RPC dynamic port range> for the Management Agent in the Local ports parameter.

note

For more information on RPC dynamic port range, refer to the following Microsoft Support Knowledge Base articles at https://support.microsoft.com:
How to configure RPC to use certain ports and how to help secure those ports by using IPsec
How to configure RPC dynamic port allocation to work with firewalls
The default dynamic port range for TCP/IP has changed in Windows Vista and in Windows Server 2008

 

Automatic method

Before following the below instructions, make sure that Windows Firewall enabled on the target computer does not block any ports used by the Recovery Manager Console: these ports are required to deploy Backup Agent, Online Restore Agent, Offline Restore Agent, Management Agent.

Use the following options to automatically configure Windows Firewall settings:

  • To automatically configure Windows Firewall for Backup Agent, Online Restore Agent, Offline Restore Agent and Management Agent, use the Recovery Manager Console settings. For more details, see the Ports tab section.

  • You can automatically configure Windows Firewall settings for Backup Agent using the Computer Collection properties in Recovery Manager Console:

    • Open the Recovery Manager Console, expand the Computer Collections node in the console tree, and select the Computer Collection that includes the target computers where you want to automatically configure Windows Firewall.

    • From the main menu, select Action | Properties.

    • In the dialog box that opens, go to the Agent Settings tab.

    • Make sure the Use preinstalled Backup Agent check box is cleared. This is required to automatically deploy Backup Agent when the backup creation operation starts. You cannot configure Windows Firewall by using preinstalled Backup Agent.

    • Select the Automatically configure Windows Firewall check box, and click OK

RMAD automatically configures Windows Firewall on each Windows Server® 2008-based or later computer in the Computer Collection after the backup creation operation starts on that Collection.

  • To automatically configure Windows Firewall settings for Online Restore Agent, you should select the Automatically configure Windows Firewall option on the Domain Access Options step of Online Restore Wizard.

 

Using Computer Collections

A Computer Collection is a group of shortcuts to the computers (domain controllers and/or AD LDS (ADAM) hosts) to be backed up with Recovery Manager for Active Directory. You can have multiple Computer Collections, each representing a group of computers you want to back up. You can populate a Computer Collection with shortcuts to specific computers available on your network and containers (for example, Active Directory® domains, sites, and organizational units) that include the computers you want to back up.

Each Computer Collection has its individual properties you can use to configure such settings as backup location, backup creation schedule, performance, and backup operation logging. For more information about Computer Collection properties, see Properties for an existing Computer Collection.

Computer Collections help you organize any number of computers into groups with the appropriate settings for backup creation and scheduling. A well-organized set of Computer Collections ensures that up-to-date copy of the backup information is maintained for remote computers. Therefore, it is recommended to group managed computers into Computer Collections and set appropriate properties for every Computer Collection.

This section covers the following tasks:

 

Creating Computer Collections

To create a Computer Collection
  1. In the Recovery Manager Console tree, select the Computer Collections node.

  2. From the main menu, select Action | Create Collection.

The properties of a newly created Computer Collection are preset with default values. You can change the property values for a Computer Collection, as well as the default property values. For more information, see Modifying Computer Collection properties.

The Backup Wizard creates a new Computer Collection if you select the option Later (configure backup scheduling) on the When to Back Up page of the wizard. The new Computer Collection includes all objects you selected on the What to Back Up page.
