| NOTE |
For Online Restore Wizard, RMAD supports DC backups even if a DC, where the backups have been done, has been removed from the domain or renamed. The exception is the old computer object, or any other object directly or indirectly linked to the old computer object. For instance, if a user upgrades the operating system on a DC, renames it, and wants to use the old backup collected before changes in the environment were made - this scenario is not supported. |
Use this page to view a list of Active Directory® backups that are registered in the RMAD backup registration database for the selected domain, if any, and select a backup.
Registered backups. Lists registered Active Directory® backups for the selected domain, if any. From this list, select the backup you want the wizard to use, and then click Next. In the list, each entry includes the following fields:
Backup Age. Indicates how old the backup is. Active Directory® does not allow using a backup whose age exceeds the Active Directory® tombstone lifetime (default is 180 days).
Created. Displays the date when the backup was created.
DC. Displays the computer name of the domain controller; the backup contains directory object data retrieved from that domain controller.
Media. Displays the path and name of the backup file.
The list only includes the backups that are registered in the RMAD backup registration database. RMAD allows you to use backups created by applications that store backups in Microsoft Tape Format (MTF), such as Windows Backup or Veritas™ Backup Exec™. To use a backup of this kind, click Register.
Register. To register additional backups, click Register, and then click one of the following items:
Register Backup File. Registers a Microsoft Tape Format (MTF)-compliant backup file (.bkf) or BMR backup file (.vhd, .vhdx).
Register Backups in Folder. Registers all backup files that are in the selected folder.
Register Offline Active Directory Database. Registers Active Directory database (ntds.dit file) unpacked from a backup created with third-party backup tools.
| NOTE |
Files are unpacked to a default folder. The setting for this folder can be found in the Recovery Manager for Active Directory Settings then the Unpacked Backups tab. The Unpacked backups folder, displays the path to the folder currently used to keep unpacked backups. Each unpacked backup will be saved in a separate subfolder of that folder. To specify another path, type the path to a new folder or click Browse to select it. When finished, click Apply. |
Use this page to select a backup to compare with the previously selected one. This window appears after you select the Compare two backups and report the differences option on the Wizard Operation Mode page.
