How to upgrade Recovery Manager from 8.0 to 8.2.1
1. Download Recovery Manager for AD 8.2.1 from support.quest.com
2. Make a backup of the below two files:
Windows 2003 location:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Quest Software\RMAD\Backups.mdb
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Quest Software\RMAD\ERDiskAD.mdb
Windows 2008 location:
C:\Users\All Users\Quest Software\RMAD\Backups.mdb
C:\Users\All Users\Quest Software\RMAD\ERDiskAD.mdb
3. Install 8.2.1 on top of the existing 8.0
4. If using preinstalled backup agents, upgrade the agents on the DC's (uninstall old and install new). The new version 8.2.1 includes a management node within the RMAD console to deploy backup agents to the DC's automatically. If there is a firewall between the console and the DC's then you will need to install the agent manually.
