Restoring the Active Directory Database

  • Locate the server with the same name as the VM that runs the Active Directory domain controller.

  • In the Agents area, click File System.

  • Under Backup sets, in the row for VSA_APP_AWARE_AD_BackupSet, select the default sublient, and then click Restore.

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