Restoring links to a previous version

You can restore the links between a GPO and its Scopes of Management, either to the last backup settings or to a specific history version that you select.

The affected Scopes of Management must be in the Available state, and the user must have rights to edit the SOMs, as well as the Link right, to restore the links. For more information, see Configuring role-based delegation.

To restore links to a previous version using the GPOADmin console
1
Expand the Version Control Root node and the required container.
2
Right-click an object and select Show History.
You will see the date, account, version, comment, and applicable action that generated the history item.
3
Select the version you would like to restore, right-click and select one of the following:
To restore just the links, select Restore Links.
To restore the object and the links together, select Get and then select the Restore GPO Links in the Comment box.
4
In the Restore Links box, you can review the settings that will be restored (right side) and use the toolbar buttons at the top to change the link order, remove links, or set other group policy properties.
Hover over a link to get more information. If a link has an exclamation mark beside it, the Scope of Management Object is not Available.
5
Click OK and close the History box to complete the restore.
At this point the modified SOMs, if registered, are put into a Pending Approval State. If not registered, the changes are made in the live environment.
* 
NOTE: You may need to right-click the object and select Refresh to ensure that you see its updated Status.

You can also restore Scope of Management links when rolling back a noncompliant GPO and when restoring a deleted GPO. For more information see, Checking compliance .

To restore links to a previous version using the GPMC Extension

Managing your links with search and replace

You can select a GPO that is currently linked to an OU and search for all occurrences of that link, then choose to replace, remove, or append anywhere that GPO is linked. This can also be done manually, but the Search and Replace is faster and it ensures all links are included.

Linking GPOs to multiple Scopes of Management

If required, you can easily take existing registered GPOs and link them to any number of SOMs within your deployment.

To link GPOs to multiple SOMs
1
Select two or more registered SOMs, right-click and choose Apply Link.
2
Click the browse button to open the Choose a Group Policy Object dialog.
3
Select the required GPO and click OK.
By default, the links will be applied to all selected Scopes of Management. You can, however, select to remove the application for specific SOMs by clearing the individual check box.
The way in which the link is applied is set through the available options:
If the GPO is not currently linked to a SOM, the default settings are enabled:
•
Enabled: This settings reflects the setting in the Version Control Server properties.
•
Enforced: Not enforced.
•
Link Order: Append link order.
If the GPO is currently linked to one of the selected SOMs, the existing settings for that SOM are displayed.
6
If required, you can change the individual options or use the top level check box to set the options for all the selected SOMs.
* 
NOTE: To set the link as a specific link order, uncheck the check box for the specified SOM under the Link Order column, set the required link order using the up and down arrow. If the link order is set to a higher number than the current link count, the link will be appended.
7
Once you have all your settings in place, click OK.
When the link action completes, the results are displayed in the Link Results dialog. If any of the links failed or an SOM was skipped, an error message displays the details so that you can take corrective action.

Managing compliance issues automatically with remediation rules

You have the option to setup an automatic way to deal with objects that have become non-complaint due to a modification or deletion performed outside of GPOADmin.

By default, the remediation option is set to None (no automatic resolution) at the Version Control Root level. Any remediation option set at this level will filter down to all child objects and containers unless you have specifically configured them to override their parents settings.

Watcher Service requirements

•
The Watcher service is required to perform the compliance remediation actions. If the service is not running all remediation settings will be ignored.
•
If the Watcher service account is not the same account as the GPOADmin service, it must be added to GPOADmin as and Administrative account.
•
Remediation is not support on Protected Settings policies and WMI Filters as these objects are not monitored by the Watcher service.
To configure compliance remediation
* 
NOTE: Only users with the Set Remediation Rule can set these options.
1
Right-click the required object or container and select Properties.
2
Select the Remediation tab and choose how you want to handle objects that have become non-compliant due to a modification or deletion.
