Performing system-state recovery

System-state recovery (SSR) is an online recovery that enables you to recover an online or powered-on machine that has lost its system files and registry. Perform an SSR when you want to restore certain selected operating system files from a known good backup to replace the corrupted or missing files. You can perform granular recoveries of selected writers from backed up bare-metal recovery (BMR) or SSR data. All the system files in the backup can be recovered only to their original location. Recovering the data to alternate hosts or locations is not supported.

Following are a few examples of files and components that are included in an SSR:

  • Boot files
  • COM+ class registration database
  • Registry and IIS metadata
  • Active Directory (NTDS)
  • System volume (SYSVOL)
