Very informative Video regarding Active Directory Backup and Restore, Thanks You!

[@utrutr6013]

Great video and great explanations. Nice job. Also your audio clarity was excellent. Subscribing.

[@Windows10NinjaWorld]

Good to hear!

[@utrutr6013]

Question... at 5:40 when you go into 'Configure Performance Settings', the default is 'Normal'. What will that do? Will that be doing a FULL backup each time? Or is it Differential vs Incremental if you select 'Faster backup performance' as you did in the video? Thanks.

Hi; Great video, Thanks a lot. I do have one question; in my environment my AD failed, "The hardware it self crashed", I do have a full backup on a remote location & on portable HDD, but when am trying to restore to a new system it doesn't recognize either; What could be the problem & how to solve it??

[@elibadichi5508]

Great video thank you!

[@StevenMcKenzie83]

Quick question when doing full restore will it restore AD as well? Or do you do a full restore first, then do systemstate afterwards?

[@mohammedabdulgaffar5382]

If you could see @3:08 , Full server backup includes system state as well

[@scott2495]

Just have your servers virtualised. Restore from snapshot, job done

[@Windows10NinjaWorld]

Good to know other metods too - not all use virtualization.

Sir , Kindly also shary the process of connect Active directory User to Email server

[@nobita5974]

Hello sir. Hope u can reply to my comment. I have backup my AD server in a shared folder on another server. If i want to restore by the bootable method, can it detect my backup image in the shared folder? Or i need to transfer the backup into my AD server first?

[@chucksell]

Thank you! very helpful!

[@TheAmazeer]

Personally I backup my server in a Nas from the network.. Do you think it's to recover the whole server with boot mode from the network instead of local disks?

[@aslam2066]

Sir, Kindly share the latest video for window server standard 2016 , Activee directory for data backup

[@Windows10NinjaWorld]

This does the job for 2016.

[@EdKutsko]

At 17:17 you talk about Authoritative Restore. Why would you not always choose that. If your AD isn't corrupt why would you restore AD from backup rather then just build a new AD server if a specific server has crashed.

[@Windows10NinjaWorld]

You need to think big and small - various options are available. But what big can do small may not be able to and the opposite! Hope this helps you to think about various different scenarios!

Guys, let say i ady do the backup from PC A and put it on external HDD, can i restore my file to windows server PC B (win server different pc)

[@malavdhimmar]

I have a single AD server 2016, which crashed few days ago, i have the only system state back up available, no backup dc, can i restore ad back ?? With only system state back up and if possible how ??? Please assist..

[@OhDubya]

When ISO used for recovery - how did recovery mode know where the disk of backups was?

[@Windows10NinjaWorld]

Becase that is what you setup/default.

I've trying to do this for soo long. But i keep getting the error message "The program issued a command but the command length is incorrect.". Any advice on this ?

[@Windows10NinjaWorld]

At what point in the video time does this happen?

[@malavdhimmar]

I have tried restoring the backup on another server as well as on the same server but after restoration server 2016 os not able to boot and going to advance troubleshooting menu..please assist .

[@Windows10NinjaWorld]

That is strange I would guess it does not have the full system but just parts. Alternatively it has been corrupted.

[@malavdhimmar]

@@Windows10NinjaWorld i have only system state back of around 10 GB available..no full backup available..

[@malavdhimmar]

@@Windows10NinjaWorld also i have many copies from different months , same issue with each one of them.. one more thing after system state restoration completes and it asks for restart should we go to dsrm mode once again or while restoring we should remove the dsrm from msconfig .

[@Windows10NinjaWorld]

@@malavdhimmar try normal boot if restore has been completed. Msconfig should be at normal.

[@malavdhimmar]

@@Windows10NinjaWorld after giving restoration location , restoration process starts at this point i ll have to make msconfig normal or after restoration completes and it asks for restart and then after restarting the server in dsrm and then message appears that restoration completed.. at this point i ll have to make msconfig normal ??
