My only Active Directory Server on win server 2008 R2 with one domain controller crashed today. The only backup that i had was IFM media.
So what i have done till now to recover it is a follow
I reintalled window server but this time it is winserver 2012. I added AD DS role to it. Promoted it to Domain Controller. (functionality level is 2008 R2)
On second server i installed win 2008 R2 and trying to add additional domain controller from IFM to recover all of my domain users,computers and GPO's. but i am getting this error
Could not replicate the directory partition CN=schema, CN= configuration, DC=XXX, DC=com from the remote domain
the naming context specified for this replication operation is invalid
i dont know weather my approach is correct or not
but my simple questions is
Can i recover my all domain computers and users from IFM and in-cooperate them in new forest ?? if yes how can i do that?? urgent help required.
