Restoring Domain Controllers

Important:

Restoring a domain controller overwrites all user, user group, and domain controller settings. Any changes made after the backup file was created will be lost.

Warning:

Restoring a domain controller in a multiple-controller environment from a backup file will corrupt the domain controller database. Instead, re-add the NAS as a domain controller, and it will synchronize with the existing controller.

  1. Go to Control Panel > Privilege > Domain Controller > Backup/Restore.
  2. Under Restore ADDC Database, click Browse.
  3. Locate a domain controller backup file.
  4. Click Import.
