Recovery Manager for Active Directory (RMAD) Forest Edition helps you recover the entire Active Directory® forest if a forest-wide failure renders all domain controllers in the forest incapable of functioning normally.
To recover an Active Directory® forest, RMAD employs a Forest Recovery Agent. The Forest Recovery Agent must be installed on each domain controller in the forest before starting a forest recovery operation.
For more information about the agent, see Managing Forest Recovery Agent in the Recovery Manager for Active Directory User Guide.
Recovery Manager for Active Directory can unpack backups and keep the unpacked data in the location you specify to reuse the data for subsequent starts of the Online Restore Wizard or Group Policy Restore Wizard. The use of unpacked backups accelerates operations the wizards perform during the backup data preparation step, because unpacking a backup can be a lengthy operation.
In this section:
You can configure the default settings to automatically unpack backups upon their creation. These settings will apply to all new Computer Collections.
In the console tree, select the Recovery Manager for Active Directory console tree root.
On the Action menu, click Settings.
Specify settings on the Unpacked Backups tab. For more information, see Unpacked Backups tab (global settings) subsection in Settings.

For each Computer Collection, you can override the default (global) settings and configure individual settings to automatically unpack backups.
In the Recovery Manager Console tree, expand Computer Collections to select the Computer Collection.
On the Action menu, click Properties.
Specify settings on the Unpacked Backups tab. For more information, see Unpacked Backups tab subsection in Properties for an existing Computer Collection.
