Service Restore
Although the RSS databases are part of System State data, you restore
them manually. The RSS database must be restored offline. You can
provide pre- and post-exec scripts to stop and restart the service, or you
can stop and restart it manually before and after the restore,
respectively.
Select the following directories for restore:
• <%SystemRoot%>\System32\RemoteStorage
• <%SystemRoot%>\System32\NtmsData
Restoring DFS
Data Protector restores the configuration of the Windows
2000/XP/Server 2003 Distributed File System (DFS) as part of one of the
following:
• Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 Registry, if the DFS is configured in a
standalone mode.
• Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 Active Directory, if the DFS is
configured in a domain mode.
Restoring Windows User Profiles and Event Logs
To restore the Windows User Profiles and Event Logs, expand the
CONFIGURATION object and select the items you want to restore.
User Profiles Data Protector will not restore any files that are currently accessed. You
have to log off the system and stop all the services that are running
under the user account whose profiles you want to restore.
The restore session can be started from another system or by logging on
the restore target system as a different user.
Deleted User
Profiles
A user profile can only be restored when its location is already defined on
the system. Individual files of existing user profiles or deleted profiles
can be still restored as long as they exist among the system’s profiles.
Otherwise, you need to recreate them before restoring the files. Proceed
as follows:
1. Log on as the user whose profile you want to restore in order to create
a default user profile.
