BE2012 - Active Directory Authoritative Restore
Hello all,
I'm attempting to restore an OU back to one of my DC's using BE2012. I've started my DC in directory restore mode so it should be ready to accept the changes. I created the restore job...
Your research above is based on pure Microsoft Theory which requires a complete restore of Active Directory to one of your DCs
Microsoft thoery however does not take into account that Backup Exec has a Granular Restore (GRT) capability to bring back individual objects with a new time stamp (which in effect forces that object to replicate back out to other controllers.)
As such you should probably do some searches (or read the BE admin guide) for either
Backup Exec AD GRT Restore
or
Backup Exec AD Granular Recovery
As you should not reboot your DC into a special mode to use GRT I am wondering if it is this step that is then causing you to not see a restore result.
