Agent tab

NOTE

For Recovery Manager for Active Directory (RMAD) 10.1 or higher: Make sure that you use the Backup Agent version supplied with this release of Recovery Manager for Active Directory.

The Agent tab is used to specify settings for Backup Agent and Forest Recovery Agent.

Note

To install Forest Recovery Agent, the account under which Recovery Manager Console is running must be added to the Builtin\Administrators domain local group.

The elements of the Agent tab are defined as follows:

  • Use the following account to access Backup Agent. Allows you to explicitly specify a user account under which you want the Recovery Manager Console to access Backup Agent. When this check box is cleared, the Recovery Manager Console uses the account under which it is running to access Backup Agent. To explicitly specify a user account, select this check box, and then click Select Account to specify the account credentials.

  • Use preinstalled Backup Agent. Allows you to enable or disable the automatic installation of the Backup Agent. The next table explains how Recovery Manager for Active Directory behaves when this check box is selected or cleared.

When the check box Use preinstalled Backup Agent is selected the product will have the following behavior:

  • RMAD backs up only those computers where the Backup Agent is preinstalled manually.

  • RMAD does not automatically install the Backup Agent on the computers in the Computer Collection.

  • RMAD automatically installs the Backup Agent before backing up a computer where the agent is not preinstalled manually.

  • When the backup operation completes, Recovery Manager for Active Directory removes the automatically installed Backup Agent.

  • If the Backup Agent was manually preinstalled on the computer to be backed up, RMAD will use that agent to back up data on the computer. RMAD does not remove preinstalled Backup Agent after the backup operation completes

For more information on how to install, update, and uninstall the Backup Agent or discover the Backup Agent instances that were manually preinstalled in your environment, see Managing Backup Agent.

  • Automatically configure Windows Firewall. Select this check box to have RMAD automatically configure Windows Firewall on target Windows Server® 2008-based or Windows Server® 2012-based DCs, so that RMAD can back up these DCs.

  • Ensure Forest Recovery Agent is deployed. Select this check box if you want the application to verify whether Forest Recovery Agent is installed on each domain controller the Collection includes. The application reinstalls Forest Recovery Agent, if necessary. For more information, see Using Forest Recovery Agent.

 

Schedule tab

The Schedule tab is used to specify the backup creation scheduling.

On this tab, you can use the following elements:

  • Backup creation schedule. Displays a list of backup creation schedules for the currently selected Computer Collection.

  • Schedule enabled. Enables the backup creation schedules listed in the Backup creation schedule box. To disable the schedules, clear this check box. All the task schedules are retained, and you can enable them when needed by selecting this check box.

  • Modify. Modifies the Backup creation schedule list. In the dialog box that appears on the screen, specify new triggers or delete existing triggers.

  • User account the product will run under when creating backups. Identifies the user account under which Task Scheduler performs the backup creation task for the currently selected Computer Collection. To change the user account, click Select Account.

  • Select Account. Click this button to change the user account under which Task Scheduler performs the backup creation task for the currently selected Computer Collection.

 

Alerts tab

The Alerts tab is used to specify the alert settings for the given Computer Collection.

NOTE

SSL data encryption is not supported for email notifications.

On this tab, you can use the following elements:

  • E-mail notification. Specifies whether to send information about backup creation sessions by e-mail.

  • To. Provides a space for you to type a recipient's e-mail address

  • What to record. Use this list to select what sort of information you want to be included in the notification e-mail message or written to the text file.

  • Send notification upon errors or warnings only. Select this check box to not receive notification unless an error and/or warning is written to the log.

  • Text file. Specifies whether to log information about backup creation sessions to an additional text file.

  • File name. Provides a space for you to enter the path and name of a text file to be used as an additional log file.

  • View. Click this button to view the additional log (text file) using Notepad.

  • Browse. Click this button to locate a text file to be used as the additional log file.

  • Append to file if it already exists. Select this check box if you never want to overwrite the log records, and always want to append entries.

  • What to record. Use this list to select what sort of information you want to be included in the notification e-mail message or written to the text file.

  • Write to file upon errors or warnings only. Select this check box if you want a record to be added to the text file upon errors and/or warnings only.

 

Performance tab

NOTE

The options on this tab are not supported for BMR backups.

The Performance tab is used to configure the throttling and performance tuning settings to be applied when creating backups for the given Computer Collection.

On this tab, you can use the following elements:

  • Enable bandwidth throttling. Limits the total bandwidth used by Backup Agent when transferring data over network links. Use bandwidth throttling to prevent excessive network traffic Backup Agent may cause.

  • Maximum network use. Provides a space for you to specify the maximum total bandwidth Backup Agent can use when transferring data over network links.

  • Enable backup agent CPU throttling. Limits the percentage of CPU processing time Backup Agent can use on each computer.

  • Maximum CPU use. Provides a space for you to specify the maximum percentage of CPU processing time Backup Agent can use on each computer.

  • Create backups on at most <Number> computers in parallel. Specifies the maximum number of computers serviced in parallel when creating backups. Increasing this number can speed backup creation. However, network saturation problems may occur. Symptoms of network saturation include slow network response when transferring data by Backup Agent, and possibly “RPC server unavailable” error messages when connecting to Backup Agent.

  • Data compression. Specifies the compression method Backup Agent uses when processing the data before sending it over network links. Using higher compression reduces network traffic, but increases CPU load on the computers being backed up. If you are planning that backups created with Recovery Manager for Active Directory be used by other MTF-compliant backup tools, set data compression to None.
