9. Right click and select All Tasks | Export
10. Click Next
11. Select 'Yes, export the private key' and click Next
12. Ensure 'Personal Information Exchange is selected and click Next
13. Check Password and enter RMAD as the password
14. Click Next
15. Specify a path to save the file, click Next and Finish
16. Copy the pfx file to the DC
17. Copy the RecoveryAgent64.exe from the RMAD installation directory to the DC
18. Run the following command from a Powershell prompt:
    .\RecoveryAgent64.exe /qn MANAGE_SERVICE=TRUE FRS_CUSTOM_PORT=xxxxx CERTIFICATE_PATH="C:\Temp\Cert.pfx" FRS_FIREWALL_SETTINGS_CONFIGURE=1 /l*!+v C:\Temp\Manual.Install.log
19. Once the agent has installed successfully, delete the cert export created in step 15

If using 10.1 or later:

1. Open the FR Console
2. Click Tools | Fault Tolerance | Export secure communication keys
3. Click Browse to select a path to store the exported keys
4. For the password type RMAD
5. Copy the pfx file to the DC
6. Copy the RecoveryAgent64.exe from the RMAD installation directory to the DC
7. Run the following command from a Powershell prompt:
8. .\RecoveryAgent64.exe /qn MANAGE_SERVICE=TRUE FRS_CUSTOM_PORT=xxxxx CERTIFICATE_PATH="C:\Temp\Cert.pfx" FRS_FIREWALL_SETTINGS_CONFIGURE=1 /l*!+v C:\Temp\Manual.Install.log
9. Once the agent has installed successfully, delete the cert export created in step 15

NOTE: If you want the agent to use a specific port, substitute xxxxx with the port you want to use or set it to 0 to have the agent use the RPC Dynamic Port range. Ensure the CERTIFICATE_PATH= is set to the full path where the pfx file was copied (eg. C:\Temp\Cert.pfx)

STATUS:

Defect RMADFE-1432 has been submitted to Development and has been tentatively planned for an upcoming 10.x release of Recovery Manager for AD Forest Edition
