Recover an AD user

Hi,
I am trying to get instructions on how to restore a AD user and We have Windows 2003 server.
I was successful in running the command Get-ADObject -Filter 'samaccountname -eq "77777"' -IncludeDeletedObjects | Restore-ADObject -NewName "AZXE", however when I open the user account non of the values were showing up other that samaccountname.
My questions: is that the same AD account which has been restored and we must manually enter all details? Or is there any other way that I can restore. With LDP I am unable to because its not showing user objects at all. So I am in need to recovering from
PowerShell. Please help ASAP. It will be of a great help.

My questions: is that the same AD account which has been restored and we must manually enter all
details? 
It is normal that you cannot recover all the user attribute values. Recovering all the attribute values was introduced with Windows Server 2008 R2 through a feature named AD Recycle Bin. This requires your DCs to be running Windows Server 2008 R2 or higher
and Windows Server 2008 R2 or higher as FFL  to be able to enable it. Please also note that Windows Server 2003 won't be supported soon so maybe this is the time to upgrade your DCs.
If you would like to recover all your user attributes values then you can achieve that through a system state backup of one of your DCs. Simply do a non-authoritative restore and mark the user restore to be authoritative: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc816813%28v=ws.10%29.aspx

  • How do I backup and recover all of user's objects and Application?

    I know that I can export the application ,CSS and images by HTMLDB.But there is not user's data. I can also export user's full schema by sqlplus. Can I recover all of user's objects like this:
    1,import the user's schema.
    2,create a new workspace and reuse the user'schema .
    3,import the application ,CSS,images.
    Then,Is all OK?
    Thank for any help and option.

    Lastgod,
    Yes, you can do what you described. You definitely must use Oracle export/import (or something) to backup and restore the data in the application schema. On the HTML DB side, depending on your purpose, you might find it simpler to export the workspace using the HTML DB site administration pages. Then you would import and install the workspace (using HTML DB admin pages), which will let you confirm the workspace schema, instead of your step 2. After that your step 3 can be performed. When you export a workspace you get the user accounts and group definitions also, so you don't have to recreate accounts when you import/install the workspace in the same or another HTML DB instance.

  • How to recover orcladmin super user ?

    For some vague reasons, orcladmin user who is a super user is missing from the Internet Directory. Is there any way, where I can recreate or recover the super user 'cn=orcladmin' ?
    Thanks !

    Hi Raj,
    You can create users by using oiddas application and also using command line.
    Step I :
    Login to OIDDAS application using admin user
    i.e
    http://hostname:infra-http-port/oiddas
    Example:
    http://machine.us.oracle.com:7779/oiddas
    Step II
    Once you login, click on directory tab and then click on create button
    Step III
    First screen will ask for general information. there you need to enter password for user.
    Step IV:
    You can provision the various component for this user. Example in case of mail, if its provisioned, then by default a mail account will be created for user.
    Step V:
    On third screen, you can check the information and also keep the default information as it is. You can also decide the quota for mail server.
    FINISH
    If you search for the user you created you should be able to see the record.

  • Best way to recover from "drop user; drop table space"

    Hello,
    I am practicing several different RMAN recovery senarios on oracle 11g windows 2003.
    The senario that I am stuck on is.
    drop user MYUSER cascade;
    drop table space MYUSER including contents and datafiles;
    Originally, I was trying to do this with RMAM. From further reading, it seems that RMAN fit for this type of recovery.
    What is the best approach to recover from this?

  • HELP? How can I recover access to user accounts 10.6.8?

    NEED HELP!
    Thought the time was right so I upgraded to 10.8 from 10.6. However, I was unaware that Power PC programs don't function in 10.8 so I reinstalled 10.6. from my instalation disc.
    There are 3 user accounts on my computer, mine, my son's and my wife's. When booting up I was only able to access my wife's user account. When logging into either my son's or my account all I got was a "jiggle" indicating that the password was wrong. I pretty sure the reason this happened is that my son and I logged in while in 10.8. whereas my wife didn't.
    I opened the user preference pane and tried to reset my password (and my son's) but that didn't work.
    So my question is, what do I do to recover my son's and my user accounts?

    I fixed the problem. Using the boot disc I was able to reset the password. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH6317.

  • How to recover bitlocker encrypted user data partition

    Background: My laptop was installed with Windows 8 and the disk is encrypted with Bitlocker. At installation I split the disk in two partitions, one for the OS and one for the user data. The laptop is broken beyond repair but I still have the disk.
    I am using a USB cradle to recover data from the disk to another computer (running Windows 7). When I turn on the cradle it shows me my two partitions and prompts for the Bitlocker password for the OS partition. This works fine. But for the user data partition
    it prompts me for a recovery key, which I don't have.
    When I installed the system and enabled I only set one password. At the time I believed that it encrypted the whole disk as one unit and didn't pay more attention to this. As I learn more it seems like the partitions are encrypted individually. The manage-bde
    tool shows that the OS disk is encrypted with a password while the user data partition is encrypted with an external key and shows a filename with a BEK extension. I have never created such an external key file.
    Is this external key managed by Windows itself (to save me from entering two passwords at boot time)?
    Is there a way to find this external key for my user data partition?
    Thanks for help or any hints.
       / Sven

    Tanks for respondent. That guide refers mostly to recovering the keys from AD. My laptop was not domain joined as it was for home use. And I have the password for the OS disk and needed help with the second.
    Anyway, I solved this by inserting the disk in another laptop. It booted up nicely, prompted for the one password and gave me access to both partitions. So my problem is solved now.

  • Recover after DROP USER CASCADE

    In our setup, we have one user as the owner of all the objects pertaining to the application database. I was just curious that, if this owner is DROPped, how do I recover all his objects, or what are medium/modes of recovery in this case.
    regards,
    Luckys

    Its very well possible as long as you valid backups and required archived logs.
    This tells how important is the backup and recovery policies. One need to be carefully think of all the situation before developing any backup and recovery policies.
    The finaly result from the policies is simply, minimize the recovery time and bring the database backup in acceptable time.

    thanks in advance. Andrea.

    hello everyone.
    thanks for you replies.
    I'm on windowns.
    Problem is that I even don´t remember the name of my "user" administrator. I don´t know if it's "system" or "sysdba" or "administrator" or "root" ... :(
    I´m a student, I don´t know nothing about admin databases.
    in generally when I install something I use to write and keep the user I used to install but this time I forgot.
    - I tried Aman... clue, problem is that I have to connect to the database as SYSDBA to perform it.
    - I didn´t understand Mastalerz clue.
    any more clue, or I'll have to unistall my db ? :(

  • How do i recover deleted user

    I have accidentally deleted my original user while trying to install a new user. I found the previous user file and dragged all the contents into a new user folder but that did not work. I took the imac to the Apple Store and the "genius" at the genius bar deleted that user before I could stop him. Now the files I found no longer exist, even in the disk image for the original user. None of my original settings work any more. I think the original user files must exist somewhere but it is not in the usual places.
    More detail:
    I was trying to set up a second user on the imac (2010) and migrate the user's info from a Powerbook G4 into the new user. The Apple support page said that I had to restart the powerbook in Target Mode to do the migrate. I renamed the user on the Powerbook to match the user on the iMac, restarted in Target mode and did the migrate. The migrate overwrote the original user info on the iMac, wiping out and settings, email and contacts. Not only that, the Target mode apparently did away with any user info I was trying to migrate, so what I ended up with on both computers is basically the factory setting as if there were no users. I attempted to recover the previous user as described above, but the folders had red Xes in them and did not reset the user info. But the info was there in the folders under the original user name. Went to the "Genius" bar where they got the laptop to at least recover the emails, etc. The next thing he did was to go to Accounts and delete the previous (original) user. Then he went searching for the previous user, but there was nothing in the folders because I had dragged, not copied them into the user he deleted. He asked if I had backups and I thought I did on an external hard drive at home. Got home and the time machine file on the hard drive was corrupt and would not back up. The only CD backup I have is two years old, so it doesn't have any iphone info.
    So now I have two computers that sort of work but doesn't recognize any of the users for setup and email purposes. I'm afraid to synch my iphone because it warns me that it doesn't recognize the user and will replace info on the iphone. And all of my emails for the last few years are gone.
    I thought I was getting backed up by the Backup application but it doesn't work. The laptop was set to backup to Mobile Me which doesn't work any more and I can't recover anything for it from icloud. The imac was supposed to be backed up to icloud but backup doesn't recognize any files there. I really don't know where to go from here except back to the "geniuses" at the genius bar and ask for an advanced tech support person.
    Any suggestions?

    Whew, if those files were secure deleted, they're cgone.
    Your only slim hope is to quit using it completely to preent deleted file spaces being overwritten.
    It may be possible to recover some erased ones, but you must quit using the Computer immediately, because the OS will think it can write to those freed blocks on the disk.

  • How to recover backup user data after a restore

    I had a disk fail and could not boot. while in the restore software I was able to backup user data to a USB drive. Now that I've restored from the restore partition and got it running windows 7 home again, I don;t see how to recover the user data made with the low level software. Windows back up doesn't seem to recognise it and I can't find an HP utility to get at it.
    A program saved with the .wim back up files brought up an HP restore manager application that then copied the filed to my new C drive but how do I actually get it to recover them into their appropriate places and recreate users etc.
    Or, should I just consider myself lucky to still have copies of the files at all?  I'll not be real happy about that because it will be a tom of work to recreate everything manually even with the files.
    I'm hoping someone out there has a better solution for recovering all my user data into my new restored initial image.
    thanks,
