Hello and thank you for coming to this video in this video we should show you basically how to backup windows server a full backup also adjusts a system state which gives you active directory restore ability am also how to restore them. So the backup and restore of full version and also just for active directory because that requires a slightly different way to restore and we should show you the full steps you get to server manager, open up that's straightforward, go to features which is after roles like a serious go next and then features make sure you select windows server backup, which is over here as a straightforward being. All of those adjusts install and will finish in a few seconds ago that finished so now all we need to do is just a block, and when this opens up.
It's like that, then yes, click on local backup as you can see we haven't set up any backup schedules that the concept behind this is you can do a full backup every time and you can set it every half an hour, except Robison time schedule either. Maybe just once a day. If you're not busy or if you're doing a lot of changes on a computer and you need backups for us security for your own peace of mind okay contains a now when you do a back up the matter which version you choose.
Okay, the steps are straightforward. Or custom okay arm. I would suggest full and the reason why is okay for us. This is a surly demo machines is only using up 16.24 gigs okay. You might have a 1 TB when you do. With incremental backup settings. What happens is the first time.
Yes, let's assume it's a 1 TB hard disk backing up like a or hard disks, and that will backup and then once that is done, you then basically only do changes. Whatever changes are being made only those are being backed up so it's a lot of time and space is being saved, so I would go the full and using the full you can restore your DNS your active directory. Other system settings et cetera as well. Okay if you are using a virtual machine. Okay, like for example, VMware, you will find that the custom setting which most people choose to do a system state account which restorers active directory that does on our machine comes out roughly a 10 gig. I guess there's not much of a difference.
Okay between the system state and a full server backup on a empty system. Literally. I guess that's those points I would go with full server and then click next and man you can choose times for example, the given you a 9 PM at night okay when assuming nobody is around pleasant, quiet. If you're making lots of changes during the day and have lots and lots of different settings are growling at 10 AM, then made again 12 lunchtime and then to for even more....

Good to hear!

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??

[@scott2495]

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

[@Windows10NinjaWorld]

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

[@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?

[@aslam2066]

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

[@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.

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

[@Windows10NinjaWorld]

This does the job for 2016.

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..

[@ShivamSharma-zy6vz]

I forget password of ADDS what can i do?? Sir

[@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

[@junaidazizi6815]

Thanks bro...

[@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?

[@Wah-logs]

Thanks for the video

[@nabilnashed2018]

well done thanks

[@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!

[@ahmedsaad-lk2og]

thanks

[@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.

If i select backup once and do a bare meatal backup on a external USB drive... Can i disconnect that USB drive after the backup is done ?

[@Windows10NinjaWorld]

Yes you can remove it.

[@Hector-jp5rt]

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 ??
