Recovering deleted objects

This section provides instructions on how to selectively recover deleted objects in a domain and how to recover all deleted objects in an organization unit.

To selectively recover deleted objects

  1. On the Recovery Manager for Active Directory computer, start the Recovery Manager Console, then expand the appropriate console tree node nodes to locate the Deleted Objects container in the domain where you want to recover deleted objects.

  2. If necessary, browse to select the subcontainer that includes the deleted objects you want to recover.

  3. In the right pane, select the objects you want to recover. To select multiple objects, hold down CTRL, and click the objects you want to select.

    To locate specific deleted objects, you can:

    • Sort objects - Click the heading of the right pane column by which you want to sort the objects. For example, you can click the heading of the Name column to sort the objects by their names.

    • Group objects - Point to the heading of the right pane column by which you want to group the objects, then click the down arrow button, and click Group. To ungroup the objects, repeat these actions.

    • Filter objects - Point to the heading of the right pane column by which you want to filter the objects, then click the down arrow button, and specify the filter criteria.

    • Limit the number of displayed objects - Select the Deleted Objects node in the console tree, then, from the main menu, select Action | Set View Options, and specify how many recently deleted objects you want to view. You can also perform these actions on any container located in the Deleted Objects node.

    • View objects in a hierarchy - Select the Deleted Objects node in the console tree, then, from the main menu, select Acton | View as Hierarchy.

    • View objects in a flat list - Select the Deleted Objects node in the console tree, then, from the main menu, select Action | View as Flat List.

  4. From the main menu, select Action | Recover Deleted Objects.

  5. Follow the steps in the wizard to complete the recovery operation. You can either undelete the objects or restore them from a backup created with Recovery Manager for Active Directory.

To recover all deleted objects in an organizational unit

  1. On the Recovery Manager for Active Directory computer, start the Recovery Manager Console, then expand the appropriate console tree node nodes to locate the Deleted Objects container in the domain where you want to recover deleted objects.

  2. Browse to select the organization unit in which you want to recover all deleted objects.

  3. From the main menu, select Action | Recover Deleted Objects.

  4. Follow the steps in the wizard to complete the recovery operation. You can either undelete the objects or restore them from a backup created with Recovery Manager for Active Directory.

 

Recycling deleted objects

In the Active Directory forest where Microsoft’s Active Directory Recycle Bin is enabled, you can use Recovery Manager for Active Directory to override the applicable deleted object lifetime setting and manually change the state of a deleted object from “deleted” to “recycled”. For more information about the “recycled” state, see Managing deleted or recycled objects.

To manually recycle deleted objects

  1. On the Recovery Manager for Active Directory computer, start the Recovery Manager Console, then expand the appropriate console tree node nodes to locate the Deleted Objects container in the domain where you want to recycle deleted objects.

  2. If necessary, browse to select the subcontainer that includes the deleted objects you want to recycle.

  3. In the right pane, select the deleted objects you want to recycle. To select multiple objects, hold down CTRL, and click the objects you want to select.

    To locate specific deleted objects, you can:

    • Sort deleted objects - Click the heading of the right pane column by which you want to sort the objects. For example, you can click the heading of the Name column to sort the objects by their names.

    • Group deleted objects - Point to the heading of the right pane column by which you want to group the objects, then click the down arrow button, and click Group. To ungroup the objects, repeat these actions.

    • Filter deleted objects - Point to the heading of the right pane column by which you want to filter the objects, then click the down arrow button, and specify the filter criteria.

    • Limit the number of displayed deleted objects - Select the Deleted Objects node in the console tree, then, from the main menu, select Action | Set View Options, and specify how many recently deleted objects you want to view.

    • View deleted objects in a hierarchy - Select the Deleted Objects node in the console tree, then, from the main menu, select Acton | View as Hierarchy.

    • View deleted objects in a flat list - Select the Deleted Objects node in the console tree, then, from the main menu, select Action | View as Flat List.

  4. From the main menu, select Action | Recycle Deleted Objects.

    You can also recycle deleted objects by using cmdlets supplied with the Recovery Manager for Active Directory Management Shell.

 

Recovering recycled objects

With Recovery Manager for Active Directory you can only recover recycled objects by restoring them from a backup created with Recovery Manager for Active Directory. Therefore, make sure that you have at least one backup that includes the recycled objects you want to recover.

NOTE

Recycled objects can be restored only using the agent-based restore method. This means that the backup that is used to restore recycled objects is created from the target domain controller. For more details, see Agent-based method.

To recover recycled objects

  1. On the Recovery Manager for Active Directory computer, start the Recovery Manager Console, then expand the appropriate console tree node nodes to select the Deleted Objects container in the domain where you want to view a list of recycled objects.

  2. From the main menu, select Action | View as Flat List.

  3. Filter the objects by the recycled state:

  4. In the right pane, select the recycled objects you want to recover. To select multiple objects, hold down CTRL, and click the objects you want to select.

  5. From the main menu, select Action | Recover Deleted Objects.

  6. Follow the steps in the wizard to restore the selected recycled objects from a backup created with Recovery Manager for Active Directory.

 

Restoring backed up Active Directory components

Recovery Manager for Active Directory enables the backup and restoration of the following Active Directory components on domain controllers:

  • DIT Database

  • SYSVOL

  • Registry, including all registry hives and the file NTUSER.DAT

To restore backed up Active Directory components

  1. Start the Repair Wizard and follow the instructions in the wizard.

  2. On the Computer and Backup Selection page, double-click the computer whose backup you want to use, and then double-click the backup you want to use. Click Next.

  3. Follow the wizard to walk through the restore process.

With the Repair Wizard, you can restore data from Active Directory backups created by applications that store backups in Microsoft Tape Format (MTF), such as Windows Backup or Veritas Backup Exec. To use a backup, on the Computer and Backup Selection page, click Register, and then click Register Backup File. The wizard catalogs the backup and adds a new entry to the list of backups.

Snapshot backups are not supported by the Repair Wizard. However, you can restore Active Directory data from such backups using the Online Restore Wizard and Group Policy Restore Wizard. The Extract Wizard also supports snapshot backups.
