Using recovery alerts

Recovery alerts provide you with the real-time information about the recovery of domain controllers in your project. You can configure a recovery alert to inform you when particular domain controllers complete the recovery stage you specified in the alert settings.

For a recovery project, you can create and configure multiple alerts, each having different settings. You can also modify settings of existing alerts or delete alerts as necessary. To manage recovery alerts, click the Configure Alerts button on the toolbar of the Forest Recovery Console.

For each alert, you can select one or more domain controllers to which the alert will apply. You can configure an alert to inform you about the completion of one or more of the following recovery stages on the target domain controllers:

Recovery stages for which you can use alerts

Prepare to restore from backup

During this stage, Recovery Manager for Active Directory verifies that the backup files you selected for recovery are available on the target domain controllers. If necessary, Recovery Manager for Active Directory copies the backup files that are missing. Also, Recovery Manager for Active Directory disables Microsoft Windows Update if it is enabled on the domain controllers.

Perform restore from backup

During this stage, Recovery Manager for Active Directory performs the following steps:

  • Detect current mode (DSRM or normal)

  • Reset DSRM administrator password

  • Restart domain controller in DSRM

  • Enable domain controller isolation

  • Disable BitLocker

  • Disable custom password filters

  • Restore data from backup

  • Restart domain controller in normal mode

  • Reset DSRM administrator password

Configure domain controller

During this stage, Recovery Manager for Active Directory performs the following steps:

  • Get information about domain controller

  • Select preferred DNS server

  • Remove global catalog (if you did not specify to keep the existing global catalog)

  • Raise RID pool

  • Invalidate RID pool

  • Seize FSMO roles

  • Clean up metadata of removed domain controllers

  • Reset the Krbtgt password

  • Reset password for users in privileged groups

  • Reset computer account passwords

  • Enable custom password filters

  • Restart domain controller in normal mode

  • Reset trust passwords

Make domain controller available

During this stage, Recovery Manager for Active Directory performs the following steps:

  • Ensure that domain controller isolation is disabled

  • Clean up metadata of unrecovered domains if necessary

  • Change global catalog partition occupancy level

  • Add global catalog (if you did not specify to keep the existing global catalog)

  • Wait for a global catalog server to become available

  • Restore initial global catalog partition occupancy level

  • Enable the use of global catalog for user authentication

  • Enable BitLocker

  • Enable Windows Update (if it was enabled before the recovery)

  • Remove temporary files

Uninstall Active Directory Domain Services

During this stage, Recovery Manager for Active Directory uninstalls Active Directory using the native tools provided by Microsoft. For domain controllers running Windows Server 2008 or earlier, Recovery Manager for Active Directory uses the Dcpromo.exe tool. For Windows Server 2012-based domain controllers, Recovery Manager for Active Directory uses the native Windows PowerShell cmdlet Uninstall-ADDSDomainController.

Also, Recovery Manager for Active Directory disables Microsoft Windows Update if it is enabled on the domain controllers.

Reinstall Active Directory Domain Services

During this stage, Recovery Manager for Active Directory performs the following steps:

  • Select preferred DNS server

  • Wait for a global catalog server to become available

  • Reinstall Active Directory Domain Services

  • Remove temporary files

  • Enable Windows Update (if it was enabled before the recovery)

Creating an alert

To create an alert

  1. Create or open a recovery project.

  2. On the toolbar, click Configure Alerts.

  3. In the dialog box that opens, click Create Alert.

  4. Under Alert properties, do the following:

    1. Use the Alert name box to type a descriptive name for the alert.

    2. Use the Alert me about completion of the specified stage list to select a recovery stage.

    3. Under the Use this alert for domain controllers list, click Add, and then select the check boxes next to the domain controllers to which you want to apply this alert. When you are finished, click OK.

By default, the created alert informs you when all specified domain controllers complete the selected recovery stage, regardless of whether or not the stage succeeded. To modify this behavior, complete the next steps.

  • If you want to be informed when any of the domain controllers complete the recovery stage, select the Alert me when any DC in the list completes specified stage check box.

  • If you only want to be informed about the successful completion of the stage, select the Only alert me when specified stage is completed successfully.

  1. Click OK to apply your settings.

 

Viewing active alerts

After you start the recovery or verify settings operation on a recovery project, you can monitor active alerts in

the project.

The number of currently active alerts is displayed next to the Active alerts link in the Project Summary area of the Forest Recovery Console. You can click the Active alerts link to display a list of active alerts and view the details for each active alert.

To view the details of an active alert

  1. In the Project Summary area of the Forest Recovery Console, click the Active alerts link.

  2. Use the Active alerts list to select the alert whose details you want to view.

  3. Use the Alert details list to view the details of the selected alert.

 

Modifying an alert

For an existing alert, you can modify such settings as alert name, the recovery stage the alert informs you about, the list of domain controllers to which the alert applies, and the conditions when the alert becomes active.

To modify an alert

  1. Open the recovery project that includes the alert you want to modify.

  2. On the toolbar, click Configure Alerts.

  3. In the dialog box that opens, use the Alerts list to select the alert you want to modify.
