About Quest Recovery Manager for Active Directory Disaster Recovery Edition

It is crucial for any modern business to maintain the availability of its network-computer environment at all times. Unplanned downtime caused by a disastrous event, such as a directory service malfunction, can severely disrupt the operation of a business. Therefore, business-critical infrastructures demand the ability to recover failed systems and services in the shortest possible time.

Recovery Manager for Active Directory (RMAD) employs advanced technologies to minimize the downtime caused by the corruption or improper modification of Active Directory®, Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) (ADAM), and Group Policy data. This product allows for automatic backup, and fast remotely managed recovery of data stored in Active Directory. RMAD dramatically reduces the time required to restore Active Directory®, AD LDS (ADAM), and Group Policy data. This improves the availability of corporate networks and reduces network downtime. Given that the time required to recover Active Directory® using a conventional full-backup tool is typically a few hours, Recovery Manager for Active Directory offers huge savings on time, productivity, and administrative overhead.

Quest® Recovery Manager for Active Directory Forest Edition (RMAD/FE) is designed to recover the entire Active Directory® forest or specific domains in the forest. The use of Recovery Manager for Active Directory helps you to minimize the downtime caused by the corruption or improper modification of Active Directory® forest and data.

With Recovery Manager for Active Directory Disaster Recovery Edition, you can easily back up Active Directory® and you'll have multiple options to meet the needs of your business continuity plans. Disaster Recovery Edition provides flexible recovery methods, including a phased recovery, restoring to a clean OS or bare metal recovery.
