Error 5006 is logged in RMAD logs when attempting to install the Recovery Agent from the Forest Recovery Console.
Details include "Failed to copy the file 'C:\Program Files\Quest\Recovery Manager for Active Directory Forest Edition\RecoveryAgent64.exe' to the target computer.
Access is Denied"
This can often be caused by Antivirus software.
Specifically Sophos has been noted as an antivirus which can trigger this.
Check the Antivirus logs if you have an Antivirus running on the target DC.
Workarounds include the following:
1. Install the agent manually by manually copying the file and installing directly on the DC
2. Disable the specific antivirus function on the folder where it is attempting to copy: C:\Windows\Installers folder
Re-enable the function once the agent is installed.
