| Note |
Recovery Manager for Active Directory Forest Edition supports malware checks for Active Directory® backups only. |
Recovery Manager for Active Directory scans BMR and Active Directory® backups for malware as a part of the verification process. The anti-virus checks are performed on the Forest Recovery Console machine by means of antivirus software installed on the machine. Check Release Notes for a list of supported antivirus software.
Recovery Manager for Active Directory supports Integrity checks for Active Directory® backups.
When a backup is created, a checksum is calculated for the backup file and saved in the backup file when the backup is registered. An integrity check recalculates the checksum and compares it to the checksum stored in the backup file.
The following statuses can be displayed after running the integrity check:
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Passed | The newly calculated checksum value matches the previously calculated checksum stored in the backup file. |
| Unknown | The integrity check was not performed. |
| Running | The integrity check is in progress. |
| Failed | The backup is not accessible (wrong credentials) or may have been moved from the path. |
| No Checksum | The previously calculated checksum could not be read. This could be due to the backup being created by a previous version of the product. The backup also may have been damaged in such a way that the checksum was also affected. |
| Corrupted | The newly calculated checksum value does not match the previously calculated checksum stored in the backup file. |
Recovery Manager for Active Directory makes it possible to create, update, and apply Active Directory® backups remotely across an entire network. It can be installed on an administrator’s workstation, allowing all operations to be performed from a single, central location. These operations include the creation, update, and storage of backups, as well as the restoration of Active Directory® and Group Policy data from a backup.
Backups created with Recovery Manager for Active Directory can be stored in a central location, at several locations on a distributed network, or on selected computers with physically restricted access. Access to Active Directory® backups can be restricted using backup encryption along with security mechanisms provided by the operating system.
Recovery Manager for Active Directory Disaster Recovery Edition provides secondary storage options for critical backups with Secure Storage server and Cloud Storage features.
Using a Secure Storage server or Cloud Storage in your disaster recovery plans helps prevent unauthorized modifications or malware attacks on backup data. Even if you lose your DCs, primary (Tier 1) storage and even your Recovery Manager server, you still have backups on secondary storage to withstand a ransomware attack.
A Secure Storage server is a dedicated secure backup storage server, hardened by Recovery Manager for Active Directory and isolated according to IPSec rules. Using Cloud Storage you can set up and use immutable storage for your business-critical backups. Immutable storage protects your backups from being overwritten or deleted.
