How to use On Demand Recovery to restore objects in the cloud and on-premise

Hello and welcome to the video where we will demonstrate how Quest On Demand recovery for Azure Active Directory integrates with Recovery Manager for Active Directory to restore objects both to Azure AD and on-premise AD, all from the single On Demand dashboard. With this product integration, Quest On Demand can provide a single recovery dashboard to differentiate hybrid and cloud-only objects, run differences reports between production and real time backups, and restore all changes, whether on-premise or in Azure AD. We're going to start off in the Recovery Manager portal. Let's go to the monitoring tab and then hit refresh. Just a note-- the Recovery Manager portal is refreshed every 15 minutes automatically. Now that the refresh is complete, you can see the back up at the top of the list was recently taken by the Recovery Manager for Active Directory console. Now let's go to the Recovery for Azure Active Directory console. We're going to select the Task tab, then we're going to select a recent backup task, and then click Start to create a new fresh back up. We are only backing up just over 100 users, so it would only take a few seconds. Now that the backup is completed, we need to go to the Dashboard tab, and select the unpack backups link, browse to the backup that was just taken, click Save, and OK. Now that the backup is unpacked, let's go to the differences tab to show that there are currently no differences between the backups and on-premise Active Directory and or Azure Active Directory. As we can see that there are none, let's go to Active Directory Users and computers, and the on prem AD site. Let's make some changes to some objects. Let's open the RMS on prem test user and go to the Organization tab, and rename the department to broken, and click OK. Now let's go to the Azure AD portal and make changes to the same user that is both in on prem and the cloud. Let's change their usage location to Brazil, let's save those changes. And if we scroll down to department, we can see that the changes that we made in the on prem was sent to Azure AD. You can see that it's set to broken. Now we're going to go to groups. We're going to find the RMS cloud group, and we're going to remove that group. Now back to recovery for Azure AD. Now on the Differences tab, I'm going to refresh the differences report, and after the refresh is complete, you can see the changes that we made were detected. If you look at the differences column, you can see that a link was removed, and a group was removed. And also the RMS on prem test user had the department changed to broken. Now let's restore all the changes we made back to the original state by clicking the Select All box and click the Restore button, and then click OK to start the task. Now that the task is complete, let's refresh the differences report, and it should come up blank, which it does. Let's go back to the Azure AD portal, let's open the RMS on prem test user. And if we scroll down and we look at the department, we can see that it is back to sales. And if we click on groups, we can see the RMS cloud group is back. Now let's go back to on prem in Active Directory users and computers, open the RMS on prem test user, click on the Organization tab, and you can see that the department is back to sales. And that concludes this video demonstration. Thank you for taking the time to watch. To learn more about On Demand, visit Quest.com/on-demand.
