Console Storage tab

When the backup is triggered and any specified backup path is not available, no backup is created, neither in the remote storage nor in the local storage. The backup creation session will fail.

NOTE

Options on this tab are not supported for BMR backups. The BMR backups location is configured on the Remote Storage tab.

This tab includes the following elements:

  • Save Backups on the Recovery Manager Computer. Select this check box to save backup files either on the Recovery Manager for Active Directory computer. Enter the location for backup files in the Backup file name format box. If you specify a UNC share, backup files will be streamed to that share via the Recovery Manager for Active Directory computer.

  • Backup file name format. Use the provided space to specify format for paths and names of .bkf files where to store backups. The path format may include optional expressions that enable the automatic creation of subfolders. The file name format may also include expressions. For example, you might specify C:\DIRNAME\%COMPUTERNAME%\%DATETIME%. As a result, backups for different computers will be saved in separate subfolders. In addition, the file name of each backup will be composed of the date and time of the backup creation.

  • Expression. Click this button to specify optional path and file name notations in Backup file name format. You can choose the following expressions:

    • Default backup storage (%BACKUPS%). Path to the default backup storage folder. The default path is as follows: %AllUsersProfile%\Application Data\Quest\Recovery Manager for Active Directory\Backups.

    • Domain (%DOMAIN%). Name of the home domain of the computer being backed up.

    • Computer name (%COMPUTERNAME%). Name of the computer being backed up.

    • Date and Time (%DATETIME%). Date and time of the backup creation.

  • Browse. Click this button to locate the folder where backups are to be stored.

  • Sample path and file name matching the specified format. View an example of the path and file name that matches the format string supplied in Specify format for backup file name.

  • For each computer, delete all backups except the last <Number>. Select this check box to retain only a limited number of backups for each computer, and then specify the number in question. This check box can be selected only when Recovery Manager for Active Directory stores backups separately. To ensure that Recovery Manager for Active Directory does so, add the %DATETIME% expression to the path or file name in the Backup file name format box.

  • Store a copy of each backup. Stores a copy of each backup in an alternate location.

  • Specify format for backup file name. Provides a space for you to specify format for paths and names of .bkf files where to store copies of backups. You can use UNC names to store backups in a shared network folder. The path format may include optional expressions that enable the automatic creation of subfolders. The file name format may also include expressions. For example, you might specify C:\DIRNAME\%COMPUTERNAME%\%DATETIME%.

As a result, copies of backups for different computers will be saved in separate subfolders. In addition, the file name of each backup will be composed of the date and time of the backup creation.

 

DC Storage tab

NOTE

When the backup is triggered and any specified backup path is not available, no backup is created, neither in the DC storage nor in the Console storage. The backup creation session will fail.

This tab includes the following elements:

  • Save backups on the backed up DC or a UNC share. Select this check box to save backup files either on the domain controller being backed up or on the Universal Naming Convention (UNC) share you specify. Enter the location for backup files. If you specify a UNC share, backup files will be directly streamed to that share from Backup Agent installed on the DC being backed up. Backup Agent accesses the DC being backed up and/or the specified UNC share under the account specified on the Agent Settings tab.
NOTE

The remote SMB share must be configured for BMR backups. You need to specify path to the SMB share in the following format (%DATETIME%variable is required ): \\RemoteHost\ShareName\%COMPUTERNAME%\%DATETIME%.

  • Backup path. Use the provided space to specify format for paths and names of files where to store backups. If you want to store backups on remote computers, the path must include UNC names. The path format may include optional expressions that enable the automatic creation of subfolders. The file name format may also include expressions. For example, you might specify \\RemoteHost\ShareName\%COMPUTERNAME%\%DATETIME%.

  • Expression. Click this button to specify path and file name notations in Backup path or Alternative backup path (optional). You can choose the following expressions:

    • Domain (%DOMAIN%). Name of the home domain of the computer being backed up.

    • Computer name (%COMPUTERNAME%). Name of the computer being backed up.

    • Date and Time (%DATETIME%). Date and time of the backup creation.

  • Sample path. View an example of the path and file name that matches the format string supplied in Backup path or Alternative backup path (optional).

  • Alternative backup path (optional). This option is not supported for BMR backups.

IMPORTANT

According to the Forest Recovery best practices, the RMAD Active Directory backup should be stored on a domain controller. At the same time, the Alternative backup path option allows you to store the same Active Directory backup on remote backup storage. This can be useful if the DC is destroyed and you want to restore it from a BMR backup and the latest Active Directory backup. The retention policy is applied to both backup paths. So, if you set it to 10, and you have both paths configured - it means that there will be 5 backups on DC and 5 backups on the remote storage.

  • Use the following account to access the backup storage. Allows you to explicitly specify a user account that will be used to access the backup storage. This option lets you work with network shares from the different security realm such as Linux shares or Azure Files.
NOTE

This account is used to access both backup locations. Currently, separate access accounts are not supported.

  • For each computer, delete all backups except the last (Number). Select this check box to retain only a limited number of backups for each computer, and then specify the number in question. To ensure that Recovery Manager for Active Directory does so, add the %DATETIME% expression to the path or file name in the Backup path box.

 

Unpacked Backups tab

NOTE

The options on this tab are not supported for BMR backups.

This tab allows you to override the global (or default) settings used to automatically unpack backups for all Computer Collections.

On this tab, you can use the following elements:

  • Use global settings. Specifies to use the global settings to automatically unpack each backup upon its creation.

  • Unpack each backup upon its creation. Allows you to configure settings specific to the Computer Collection to automatically unpack each backup upon its creation. In this option, you can specify the number of recent backup creation sessions from which you want to keep unpacked backups for each domain in the Computer Collection or select the domain controllers you need. Other backups created for the Computer Collection will be automatically deleted.

  • Do not unpack backups. Specifies not to unpack backups created for the Computer Collection.

For more information on managing unpacked backups, see Unpacking backups.

 

Container and site properties

For a container such as an Active Directory domain, organizational unit, or site added to a Computer Collection, the properties are used to specify an explicit list of the domain controllers or AD LDS (ADAM) instances for which backups are not to be created.

To view and modify properties for a container or site

  1. In the Recovery Manager Console tree, select the Computer Collection that holds the container or site.

  2. In the details pane, click the container or site, and then click Properties on the Action menu.
