New Features and Enhancements

This section covers new features and enhancements in Quest® Recovery Manager for Active Directory 10.2.2.

Major Features


NOTE

The following three features, AWS S3 Cloud Storage, Pause Recovery for Remediation, and Secure Storage Server Maintenance are only available with a Recovery Manager for Active Directory Disaster Recovery Edition license. To purchase a new license please send an email to sales@quest.com, or contact your local sales office.

AWS S3 Cloud Storage

Recovery Manager for Active Directory Disaster Recovery Edition provides the ability to set up and use dedicated cloud storage locations for backups. Cloud Storage in combination with Tier 1 storage options ensure that your critical backups are always available in case of disaster.

Recovery Manager for Active Directory Disaster Recovery Edition 10.2.2 introduces support for Amazon Web Services (AWS) S3 storage.

In Recovery Manager for Active Directory Disaster Recovery Edition, RMAD PowerShell® cmdlets are available to add, edit and remove the AWS S3 Cloud Storage.

Pause Recovery for Remediation

A recovery in Directory Services Restore Mode (DSRM) can now be paused during the recovery for remediation. A new Malware Remediation tab has been introduced in the Forest Recovery console and has options to allow the user to make choices for scanning of malware or server maintenance during recovery.

The feature pauses the recovery during Directory Services Restore mode (DSRM) before the domain controller is restarted into normal mode allowing users to perform maintenance and run their own scans using third party tools and/or remediate if malware found. Pause recovery in DSRM to perform maintenance tasks can be enabled for specific domain controllers by selecting the option from the Malware Remediation tab from each domain controller in the project, or for all domain controllers in the entire domain/forest.

Secure Storage Server Maintenance

New support for Secure Storage server maintenance without unhardening via PowerShell® cmdlets.

New On Demand Recovery Integration and Deprecation of Recovery Manager Portal

Recovery Manager for Active Directory is introducing a new configuration UI for Integration with On Demand Recovery. Configuration is available with a new node, Hybrid Recovery, in the Recovery Manager console. To enable integration with On Demand Recovery, see the section on the Hybrid Connector in the RMAD User Guide for further information on settings. To support hybrid recovery and communication with On Demand Recovery a new service is available – Quest Recovery Manager Hybrid Connection. To install the new service, select the installer option Recovery Manager Hybrid Connection during installation of the Recovery Manager server and console.

The Recovery Manager Portal, which enabled intranet users to use a Web browser to access the search and restore functionality is being deprecated. By providing configuration for On Demand Recovery Integration in the Recovery Manager console, installation and setup of the Recovery Manager Portal is no longer required to have Hybrid recovery support. There will not be a 10.2.2 version of the Recovery Manager Portal. Backward compatibility will be supported to continue to use earlier versions of the portal with an upgraded Recovery Manager server.

The new Hybrid Connector can be configured via the RMAD PowerShell® API.

Microsoft .NET 4.8 Requirement

Recovery Manager for Active Directory needs Microsoft .NET 4.8 as a requirement for install. A check is performed during installation to confirm .NET 4.8 is install on the system. If not, a pop up dialog will appear requesting .NET 4.8 be installed on the system.

Full support for Group Managed Service Accounts (gMSA)

Full support for group Managed Service Accounts (gMSA) is now available for use in Recovery Manager for Active Directory, Recovery Manager for Active Directory Forest Edition and Recovery Manager for Active Directory Disaster Recovery Edition. This support includes but is not limited to, gMSA accounts to verify FE projects by schedule; use a gMSA account from one domain as the agent account for backing up DCs in a different domain; replication for console connection; gMSA for setting up replication; and gMSA to run PS custom scripts.
