The process of booting of Dell™ server with Quest Recovery Environment image can be automated by Dell™ Remote Access Controller (iDRAC).
Integrated Dell™ Remote Access Controller version 8 and 9
In Forest Recovery Console, open the Infrastructure tab.
Select PhysicalDell from the Infrastructure drop-down list.
Specify the IP address of the iDRAC controller. It is recommended to specify the IP address of the controller instead of the server name.
NOTE: For Dell™ server, Quest Recovery Environment ISO image should be located in the share root folder.
Specify the user name and password of the account that will be used to access the iDRAC controller.
You can edit the iDRAC SSH script manually in the following location: %ProgramFiles%\Quest\Recovery Manager for Active Directory <Edition Name>\Management. This script will be run on the remote server during the SSH session.
Make sure that Recovery Media Image settings are properly specified in the Recovery Media Image section of the Infrastructure tab.
The process of booting the HPE® server with Quest Recovery Environment image can be automated by HPE® ProLiant® iLO Management Engine (iLO).
HPE® ProLiant® iLO Management Engine version 3, 4 and 5
Install the latest version of HPEiLOCmdlets. For details, see HPE Support.
In Forest Recovery Console, open the Infrastructure tab.
Select PhysicalHP from the Infrastructure drop-down list.

Specify the user name and password of the account that will be used to access the iLO controller.
You can edit the iLO PowerShell® script manually in the following location: %ProgramFiles%\Quest\Recovery Manager for Active Directory <Edition Name>\Management.
Make sure that Recovery Media Image settings are properly specified in the Recovery Media Image section of the Infrastructure tab.
You can change the port used by the web server handling the HPE® iLO requests for the Quest Recovery Media Images by modifying the RecoveryMediaHttpServicePort value in the FRConsoleSettings.xml file. For more information on configuring advanced settings for the Forest Recovery Console in the FRConsoleSettings.xml file, see Configuring advanced settings.

Virtual test environments created with this option can only be used for testing, training, or evaluation purposes. Never restore or copy any data from your virtual test environments to the production Active Directory.
Ensure your virtual test environment is properly isolated from the source Active Directory forest. Otherwise, the source forest may be seriously damaged after you enable the network adapters in the newly-created virtual test environment.
In Forest Recovery Console, select the DC that you want to recover and open the Infrastructure tab.
Select VMWare ESXi from the Infrastructure drop-down list.
To configure infrastructure template, click Edit. For more information see, Specifying recovery project settings.
Specify the connection settings for the vSphere Web Client.
Specify the user name and password of the account that will be used to access VMware vSphere® Web Client.
Use the Name text box to type a name for the virtual machine on the target computer. The machine with this name will be used if Create virtual machine is unchecked, or will be created if the option is selected.
You can create a new virtual machine based on the configuration from backup and specified settings. For that, select the Create virtual machine option. The following settings can be specified:
Host name - Specify the VMware ESXi™ host where you want to place the virtual machine. Multi-select can be used to select several DCs.
Refresh - Refreshes the information.
VM folder - Select the folder in which you want to place the target virtual machine. Nested folders are supported.
Network - Specify the virtual network.
Storage - Select the storage in which to place the virtual machine files.
Space available - Shows free space in the storage.
Number of processors - Specify the number of processors you want to have on the target virtual machine.
Memory size - Set the amount of random access memory you want to allocate to the target virtual machine.
Make sure that Recovery Media Image settings are properly specified in the Recovery Media Image section of the Infrastructure tab.
The process of booting the virtual machine with the Quest® Recovery Environment image can be automated by Microsoft Hyper-V®.
Hyper-V® Server 2012 or higher
NOTE |
Recovery Manager for Active Directory does not directly support System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) for this feature but you can work with SCVMM-managed Hyper-V® hosts. |
Virtual test environments created with this option can only be used for testing, training, or evaluation purposes. Never restore or copy any data from your virtual test environments to the production Active Directory®.
Ensure your virtual test environment is properly isolated from the source Active Directory® forest. Otherwise, the source forest may be seriously damaged after you enable the network adapters in the newly-created virtual test environment.
In Forest Recovery Console, select the DC that you want to recover and open the Infrastructure tab.
Select Microsoft HyperV from the Infrastructure drop-down list.
To configure infrastructure template, click Edit. For more information see, Specifying recovery project settings.

Specify the user name and password of the account that will be used to access the Hyper-V® host. This account must have the following permissions:
Be a member of the local Administrators group on the target Hyper-V® host
Be able to access admin$ share on the target Hyper-V® host
Be a member of the Hyper-V® Administrators group
Recovery Manager for Active Directory uses PowerShell® Remoting to manage the Hyper-V® server. The required permissions must be configured for users that are used to access the
Hyper-V® host, especially when the host is outside the domain where the Forest Recovery Console is running. For details, see Remotely manage Hyper-V hosts with Hyper-V Manager
Use the Name text box to type a name for the virtual machine on the target computer. The machine with this name will be used if Create virtual machine is unchecked, or will be created if the option is selected.
You can create a new virtual machine based on the configuration from backup (generation of Hyper-V® virtual machine, number of disks, disk sizes) and specified settings. For that, select the Create virtual machine option. The following settings can be specified:
Network - Specify the virtual network.
Storage - Select the storage in which to place the virtual machine files on the Hyper-V® host.
