The Guide to the Microsoft Active Directory Forest Recovery Guide
You know that Microsoft provides a 29-step guide to manual AD Forest recovery, but do you understand all that is involved in those 29 steps?



Navigating the Microsoft site and printing all pages associated with the guide yields 149 pages of instructions on how to recover an AD forest in the event of a catastrophic breach. What you don’t necessarily get is complete clarity on the importance of each step or the fact that if some steps go wrong, you’ll have to start again from scratch.
To help navigate this information, Sean Deuby, Principal Technologist at Semperis and 15-time Microsoft MVP alumnus, has created a handy companion document, “What to Watch for When Using the Microsoft AD Forest Recovery Guide.”
- Critical considerations that are not specifically documented but essential during recovery
- Common recovery problems that could prolong business disruptions
- Mistakes that can cause recovery failure if not completed correctly
Download this essential companion document now and make it required reading for everyone involved in AD recovery and management.
