Backup for Comparison

Use this page to select a backup to compare with the previously selected one. This window appears after you select the Compare two backups and report the differences option in the Wizard Operation Mode window.

  • Registered backups. Provides a list of registered AD LDS (ADAM) backups for the selected AD LDS (ADAM) instance. In the list, each entry includes the following fields:

    • Backup Age. Indicates how old the backup is. Active Directory® does not allow using a backup whose age exceeds the Active Directory® tombstone lifetime.

    • Created. Displays the date when the backup was created.

    • Media. Displays the path and name of the backup file.

  • Register. To register additional backups, click Register, and then click one from the following items:

    • Register Backup File. Registers a Microsoft Tape Format (MTF)-compliant backup file (.bkf).

    • Register Backups in Folder. Registers all backup files that are in the selected folder.

    • Register Offline AD LDS (ADAM) Database. Registers AD LDS (ADAM) database (adamntds.dit file) unpacked from a backup created with third-party backup tools.

Only backups of the same AD LDS (ADAM) instance can be compared. The first of the selected backups must be older than the second one.

Unpacked Backups Folder Selection

Use this page to optionally change the folder where Recovery Manager for Active Directory will unpack the selected backup. The Path to store unpacked backups box displays the path to the folder currently used to keep unpacked backups. Each unpacked backup will be saved in a separate subfolder of that folder. To leave that path unchanged, click Next. To specify other path, type the path to a new folder or click Browse to select it. When finished, click Next. Your changes will not affect the default settings for unpacked backups.

NOTE: If the selected backup has previously been unpacked, then this page will not be display during the restore steps.

Backup Data Preparation

This page enables you to view the progress of the backup extraction. To stop the unpack process, click Cancel. You can also have the wizard keep the extracted data for future use. When the Keep extracted data after completing the wizard check box is selected, the wizard saves the extracted DIT database in a temporary folder, so you can reuse this information for subsequent starts of the Online Restore Wizard or Group Policy Restore Wizard. The temporary folder is specified using the General tab of the Unpacked Backups Policy dialog box. When this check box is cleared, the extracted data is erased when you close the wizard. Because the unpacking process is a lengthy operation, you should not close the wizard unless you are sure that no additional objects need to be compared or restored within the current session.

AD LDS (ADAM) Access Options

This page allows you to specify the target AD LDS (ADAM) instance and account used to access that instance.

  • Target AD LDS (ADAM) instance. Displays the name of the AD LDS (ADAM) instance for the restore operation. By default, the wizard uses the AD LDS (ADAM) instance from which the backup was created. To specify a different instance, click Browse, and then complete the Select AD LDS (ADAM) Instance dialog box.

  • Browse. Opens the Select AD LDS (ADAM) Instance dialog box that allows you to select the target AD LDS (ADAM) instance for the restore operation.

  • Port number. Displays the port number used by AD LDS (ADAM).

  • Account used to access the AD LDS (ADAM) instance. Displays the user account used to access the target AD LDS (ADAM) instance. To specify a different account or a different AD LDS (ADAM) instance to connect to, click Change.

  • Change. Opens the Connect to AD LDS (ADAM) dialog box that allows you to specify the target AD LDS (ADAM) instance and the user account used to connect to that instance.
