A disaster or corruption of your Active Directory® (AD) can literally stop your business in its tracks. That’s why it’s crucial that organizations have a disaster recovery plan in place to mitigate the risk of unexpected AD disruptions.
Recovery Manager for Active Directory Forest Edition helps you automate backups and quickly recover everything — from a single object to an entire forest — in the event of a major disaster or corruption. Recovery Manager also simplifies compliance by creating a virtual lab to test disaster recovery plans and provides detailed reporting on the recovery effort.
Restore any object in AD, including users, attributes, organizational units (OUs), computers, subnets, sites, configurations and Group Policy Objects (GPOs). This enables you to significantly reduce downtime, and also gets affected users back to work quickly without restarting domain controllers, eliminating downtime and negative impact on network users.
Restore individual attributes, such as account settings, group memberships and binary attributes, even when the object itself has not been deleted. This enables you to restore only the required attributes without restarting domain controllers.
Easily build a separate virtual forest test lab with production data to test disaster scenarios and safely perform testing prior to making changes in the production domain or forest. Automatically generate detailed, time-stamped reports of the recovery process to summarize the before/after state of the organization as well as actions applied to each domain controller.
Inspect AD for warning signs of possible issues before they become disasters by checking DC accessibility, replication, trusts and user authentication.
Automate forest recovery steps from a central console by automatically and remotely quarantining infected domain controllers, resetting DSRM passwords, simultaneously restoring/recovering domain controllers, and automating other configuration tasks (setting FSMO roles, raising the RID pool, DNS, etc.) to save significant time and effort on recovery.
Generate a detailed recovery process report, including an overview of every stage of the recovery, to gain a better understanding and more control over the project.
Highlight changes made since the last backup by comparing the online state of AD with its current backup or by comparing backups. This accelerates AD recovery by quickly pinpointing deleted or changed objects or attributes. And with Change Auditor , you can easily identify who made the changes.
Discover which AD objects have changed, including before and after values, and restore them to a previous state with a few clicks.
