Active Directory Restores

You can restore the Active Directory database that is protected by an application-aware backup. After restoring the database, you can use offline mining to recover specific objects.

Note

Offline mining is only supported from CommCell Console.

  • In the Agents area, click File System.

  • Under Backup sets, in the row for VSA_APP_AWARE_AD_BackupSet, click Restore.

  • On the Backup content page, select the NTDS component as the item to recover.
