16.4. Performing a Nonauthoritative Restore

Problem

You want to perform a nonauthoritative restore of a domain controller. This can be useful if you want to quickly restore a domain controller that failed due to a hardware problem.

Solution

Using a graphical user interface

You must first reboot into Directory Services Restore Mode (see Recipe 16.2 for more information).
Open the NT Backup utility; go to Start → All Programs (or Programs for Windows 2000) → Accessories → System Tools → Backup.
Click the Advanced Mode link.
Under the Welcome tab, click the Restore Wizard button and click Next.
Check the box beside System State and any other drives you want to restore and click Next.
Click the Advanced button.
Select Original location for Restore files to.
For the How to Restore option, select Replace existing files and click Next.
For the Advanced Restore Options, be sure that the following are checked: Restore Security Settings, Restore junction points, and Preserve existing mount volume points. Then click Next.
Click Finish.
Restart the computer.
