Filter backups view. Select this check box to activate the backups filtering. You can filter backups based on backups sources or dates. Leave this check box cleared to have RMAD display all registered backups in the details pane.
Backup sources. This option allows you to filter backups based on backup sources. For example, you can have RMAD display only backups taken from the specified Bare Metal instance.
Host. Provides a space for you to type the name of a computer. RMAD will display only backups taken from Bare Metal instances hosted by that computer.
Instance. Provides a space for you to type the name of an Bare Metal instance. RMAD will display only backups taken from that Bare Metal instance.

When a backup is created, a checksum is calculated for the backup file and saved in the backup file when the backup is registered. An integrity check recalculates the checksum and compares it to the checksum stored in the backup file.
NOTE: Regular BMR backups don't have checksum enabled by default. Only Secure Server BMR backups have checksum enabled by default.
The Checksum calculation is enabled by modifying the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Quest\Recovery Manager for Active Directory\Options\ChecksumCalculationMode
The various keys for enable/disable Checksum Calculation are:
ChecksumAllDisabled = 0
ChecksumBkfRegularStorage = 1
ChecksumBkfSecureStorage = 2
ChecksumBkfAlways = ChecksumBkfRegularStorage | ChecksumBkfSecureStorage
ChecksumBkfOnTheFly = 4
ChecksumBmrRegularStorage = 8
ChecksumBmrSecureStorage = 16
ChecksumBmrAlways = ChecksumBmrRegularStorage | ChecksumBmrSecureStorage
ChecksumDefault = ChecksumBkfAlways | ChecksumBkfOnTheFly | ChecksumBmrSecureStorage
In the Recovery Manager for Active Directory console, click the Backups node then click the Active Directory, Bare Metal, or AD LDS (ADAM) node.
Click a backup you want to check the integrity on.
An automatic integrity check will be performed on the import.
The following statuses can be displayed after the integrity check has finished:
Status | Description |
---|---|
Passed | The newly calculated checksum value matches the previously calculated checksum stored in the backups file. |
Unknown | The integrity check was not performed. |
Running | The integrity check is in progress. |
Failed | The backup is not accessible (wrong credentials) or may have been moved from the path. |
No Checksum | The previously calculated checksum could not be read. This could be due to the backup being created by a previous version of the product. The backup also may have been damaged in such a way that the checksum was also affected. |
Corrupted | The newly calculated checksum value does not match the previously calculated checksum stored in the backup file. |
To manually perform an integrity check on any backup already in the Active Directory, Bare Metal, or AD LDS (ADAM) nodes:
Click a backup you want to perform the integrity check on.
Right click and select Check Integrity.
One of the statuses above will be displayed after running the manual integrity check.
The following backup types are supported for integrity check after the backup registration:
Active Directory backups (.bkf)
AD LDS (ADAM) backups (.bkf)
Offline Active Directory Database files (.dit) are ignored.
The registering of backups from New Recovery Project dialog in Forest Recovery Console, will automatically execute an integrity check when backups are registered using Register Active Directory Backup…, Register BMR Backup… and Register Backups in Folder… options.
The result of the integrity check is available in the Media Cataloging dialog box.
Registering backups from Select Backup dialog in Forest Recovery Console automatically execute an integrity check for both Active Directory Backup and BMR Backup selection.
The result of the integrity check is available in the Media Cataloging dialog box.
Automatic execution of backup integrity checks from the RMAD Console and Forest Recovery Console can be configured in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Quest\Recovery Manager for Active Directory\Options
IntegrityCheckOnBkfRegistration (REG_DWORD), can be 0 or 1 (default), allows to run integrity check for AD and ADAM (AD LDS) backups at registration.
IntegrityCheckOnBmrRegistration (REG_DWORD), can be 0 (default) or 1, allows to run integrity check for BMR backups at registration.
The registering of backups can be done via PowerShell� as a parameter has been added to the Add-RMADBackup cmdlet to allow an integrity check to be performed after the backup has been registered in the Active Directory database.
Add-RMADBackup -Path 'C:\MyBackups\2023-03-03 19-23-11.bkf' -CheckIntegrity
The result of the integrity check is available directly in the PowerShell Console or can be viewed in the RMAD Console:
NOTE: IntegrityCheckOnBkfRegistration and IntegrityCheckOnBmrRegistration registry settings do not affect the integrity check with Add-RMADBackup cmdlet.
A list of the backups can be exported to a file for other processing or record keeping.
Exported lists can be saved in one of the following formats:
Text (Tab delimited) (*.txt)
Text (Comma delimited) (*.csv)
Unicode Text (Tab delimited) (*.txt)
Unicode Text (Comma delimited) (*.csv)
In the Recovery Manager for Active Directory console, click the Backups node then click the Active Directory, Bare Metal, or AD LDS (ADAM) node.
Right click and select Export List…
In the Export List dialog, select a location to save the file, enter a file name, and click Save .
