Active Directory Disaster Recovery for Windows 2000

Overview Recovering a Windows 2000 Domain Controller requires more care and attention to detail than the equivalent operation in Windows NT 4.0. Domain Controllers can assume numerous roles within an Active Directory infrastructure: global catalogs, operations masters, and simple domain controllers. This paper describes the steps to recover the Active Directory database after a failure, the associated considerations, and the issues one need to keep in mind when restoring a server to a special role. The steps outlined in this paper have been verified through recovery operations staged in the Compaq QTEST Windows 2000 organization. QTEST is a worldwide deployment of Windows 2000 servers that is used by Compaq consultants to verify and test deployment scenarios.
