Managing Forest Recovery Agent

Recovery Manager for Active Directory employs a Forest Recovery Agent to recover domain controllers. For this reason, it is recommended that you install Forest Recovery Agent on each domain controller you want to recover with Recovery Manager for Active Directory.

NOTE

To install, delete or upgrade the Forest Recovery Agent, Recovery Manager for Active Directory uses the domain access credentials. For more details, refer Table 24 in the General tab section.

Recovery Manager for Active Directory uses the Secure Remote Procedure Call (RPC) over Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) communication logic to establish secure connection between Forest Recovery Console and the Forest Recovery Agent based on the Microsoft Secure Channel (SChannel). The process of agent installation starts with generating the Console and Agent communication keys on the console side, then these keys are deployed to the agent host. After the keys are deployed, the both sides verify that each other has a valid key to provide the mutual authentication without using the domain access credentials.

If Forest Recovery Agent is not installed a domain controller in your recovery project, Recovery Manager for Active Directory attempts to automatically install the Forest Recovery Agent on that domain controller after you start the recovery operation on the project.

After you have upgraded the Forest Recovery Console to a new version, it is recommended that you manually upgrade the Forest Recovery Agent on each domain controller in your recovery projects to the version supplied with the new Forest Recovery Console. By doing so you ensure the Forest Recovery Console and the Forest Recovery Agent are fully compatible and can correctly communicate with each other after the upgrade.

In this section:

 

Installing or upgrading Forest Recovery Agent

Note

To install Forest Recovery Agent, the account under which Recovery Manager Console is running must be added to the Builtin\Administrators domain local group.

To deploy the Forest Recovery Agent, you can use the following methods:

Automatic method

Automatically deploys and upgrades (if required) the Forest Recovery Agent during backup of domain controllers. If this method is used, all necessary communication keys will be deployed as well.

To automatically install the agent
  1. In the Recovery Manager Console tree, expand the Computer Collections node to select the Computer Collection in which you want to automatically install or update the Forest Recovery Agent.

  2. On the Action menu, click Properties.

  3. In the Computer Collection Properties dialog box, open the Agent Settings tab, and then select the Ensure Forest Recovery agent is deployed check box.

  4. Click OK.

When backing up the Computer Collection, Recovery Manager for Active Directory will verify that an up-to-date version of the Forest Recovery Agent is installed on each domain controller in the Collection.

Note that clearing the Ensure Forest Recovery Agent is deployed check box does not uninstall the Forest Recovery Agent. For instructions on how to uninstall the agent, see Uninstalling Forest Recovery Agent.

Manual method

Allows you to deploy the Forest Recovery Agent on multiple domain controllers from the Forest Recovery Console.

You can use this method to upgrade the Forest Recovery Agent on domain controllers after you have upgraded the Forest Recovery Console to a new version.

To install or upgrade the agent using Forest Recovery Console
  1. Create or open a recovery project.

  2. Use the List of Domain Controllers area to select the domain controllers on which you want to install or upgrade the agent. To select multiple domain controllers, hold down CTRL, and click the domain controllers you want to select.

  3. On the menu bar, select Tools | Manage | Forest Recovery Agent or DCs.

  4. In the dialog box that opens, click the Install Agent button to install or upgrade the Forest Recovery Agent on the domain controllers.

To install the agent manually and deploy communication keys for the agent
  1. Copy RecoveryAgent64.exe from the Recovery Manager for Active Directory installation folder to the local folder on the target domain controller.

  2. Run RecoveryAgent64.exe.

  3. To establish a secure connection between the Forest Recovery Console and this instance of Forest Recovery Agent, you need to export communication keys (RecoveryAgent.pfx). To do this, you can use the Forest Recovery Console, as follows:

    a. Open a Forest Recovery project.

    b. Select Tools | Fault Tolerance on the menu bar.

    c. Click Export secure communication keys….

    d. In the dialog that opens, select Export Agent Communication Keys. This option is used to export only Agent communication keys, not Console keys. Also, this option is available if you select Tools | Manage | Forest Recovery Agent or DCs and click More in the Manage Domain Controllers dialog.

    e. Specify the location of the Agent communication key file. Use RecoveryAgent.pfx as a file name.

    f. Save this file to the Forest Recovery Agent installation folder on the target domain controller.

 

Viewing installed Forest Recovery Agent version

To view the installed Forest Recovery Agent version
  1. Open the recovery project where you want to view the installed Forest Recovery Agent version.

  2. Use the List of Domain Controllers area to select the domain controllers for which you want to view the installed Forest Recovery Agent version.

    To select multiple domain controllers, hold down CTRL, and click the domain controllers you want to select.

  3. On the menu bar, select Tools | Manage | Forest Recovery Agent or DCs.

  4. In the dialog box that opens, use the Agent Version column to view the installed Forest Recovery Agent version.

    It is recommended to ensure that the Forest Recovery Agent version is the same as that of the Forest Recovery Console you use.

 

Uninstalling Forest Recovery Agent

To uninstall the Forest Recovery Agent, you can use one the following methods:

  • Uninstall the Forest Recovery Agent from the Forest Recovery Console.

  • Access the target computer directly to uninstall the Forest Recovery Agent.

The latter method allows you to remove the Forest Recovery Agent from a domain controller that was demoted to member server and thus excluded from your recovery project.

To uninstall the agent from the Forest Recovery Console
  1. Open the recovery project where you want to remove the Forest Recovery Agent.

  2. Use the List of Domain Controllers area to select the domain controllers from which you want to remove the agent.

To select multiple domain controllers, hold down CTRL, and click the domain controllers you want to select.

  1. On the menu bar, select Tools | Manage | Forest Recovery Agent or DCs.

  2. In the dialog box that opens, click the Uninstall Agent button.

To uninstall the agent by accessing the computer directly
  1. Log on to the computer from which you want to uninstall the Forest Recovery Agent.

  2. In Control Panel, click Uninstall a program.

  3. In the list, select Quest Forest Recovery Agent, and then click Uninstall.
